Former Fed chairman Alan Greenspan says the Iraq War is all about the oil.
Really, Alan old boy? Where’s the surplus of $10-per barrel oil, then? Where’re the pumps with $1.00 per gallon gas?
If the war were all about the oil, we’d be awash in oil and Saudi Arabia would be looking at its sponsorship of jihad with an eye to ending that (very viable) excuse for American adventurism and likely (were there to be one single solitary ounce of truth to President Fifi Mohammed Bush’s declaration that we’d hold national sponsors of terrorism accountable) extirpation and total annihilation of the Saudi “royal” house.
If it were all about the oil.
Smart people can be so very, very stupid sometimes. Maybe Alan’s problem is advancing senility.
