There was something on the news the other night about oil companies 'considering' moving into Iraq's oil fields. For a war supposedly based around getting oil, it seems a touch surprising that with rising fuel prices, we've not even begun to work on Iraq's resources.
Have I missed something?

Government has fucked us all up, Thats why food and oil prices are sky rocketing, And these prices don't plan on pissing off. China's also to blame. I hope the Quake sequal comes out for them.

Hmmm i doubt this is the reason for us sending troops to Iraq...No way could it be some plot to get oil.

www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/oil-giants-return-to-iraq-851036.htmlOil was most certainly one of the reasons for going into Iraq, that goes without saying, but it wasn't the only reason, it also had a lot to do with Israel, the neo-conservative clique in washington are all very pro Israel and some have very intimate ties with the Likudnik party, in fact a number of the neo-cons have been investigated because of there closeness to Israel, some suspicions that they were passing on information to the Israel regime. In short the Iraq war was about O.I.L Oil Israel Logistics

Blame the Chinks, worldwide cement & Iron shortage because they're on boom time, prices of lead, copper, zinc, cobalt & aluminium can all be put down to the massive chino building & manufacturing boom, bastards - great food though ;D

Forgot to mention, a very small proportion of the chinese actually drive at the moment, but this is changing fast, wait untill 1billion chinese start learning to drve, that'll nail global oil reserves!

If you want oil prices to stop rising then oppose military action against Iran, by either US (and therefore the UK) or Israel, because i can tell you right now, if that happens oil prices will sky rocket and you'll be walking to work everyday, thats not to mention the massive human suffering that would ensue.
