That's also two good points. And I don't think US would of cared if it wasn't for the oil - look at the way we deal with other countries that don't have these huge oil reserves. I see more human-rights problems in Africa but we don't seem to want to go blow them up!

>>You mean the war against the country that had used weapons of mass destruction in the 1980s against Iran and their own people, had invaded Kuwait and looted the entire country, and played hide the weapons for a decade while violating UN sanctions and costing the US how many billion $/year trying to keep them in check and enforce the UN sanctions (Enforce and UN in the same sentence - how ironic). The country whose leader after being captured let out that he was in fact trying to keep the rest of the world thinking he still had WMD capability in order to keep them at bay? The country that must have magically used every last nerve gas and mustard gas weapon against the kurds and never held any in reserve or rebuilt the stockpile? The country that has enough desert to bury Kuwait in where nobody could find it? That one?

>>Yeah - we should have walked off and lt the UN take care of things like they are with North Korea, Somalia, Sudan - like they did with the Balkins. Yeah - that's the ticket. I'd feel safer then.
