It wasnt just about oil , although that may have been a factor . Saddam was happy to keep producing and selling oil , and the attack on Iraq will cost more than it would have cost to simply buy the oil .
Even if the attack on Iraq was solely to do with oil, is this such a bad thing . Would people be willing to pay a lot more for their fuel? If so, then why were there recent mass protests when the price of gasoline increased . If Iraq switched off their oil pumps, then the cost of oil would surge , causing a huge rise in everything , and this would bring a World recession .
Would you rather have a World recession or the removal of an evil dictator............ coz thats what it boils down to.

Demockery indeed.
