Also, something else that has effected the oil prices is the falling of the dollar in regard to all other currency's, due to our debt. The Euro and the Yen is what everyone is starting to purchase.
nibs:
I Just Wasn't Made For These Times:
AGAIN: You said we invaded Iraq for the oil.
So far, we have taken none
actually, revenues from oil sales all go into the iraqi development fund. part of that money has been allocated to offset the costs of foreign (aka u.s. & co.) companies wishing to expand into iraq. it's all a part of that privatization plan. so while the american public is not benefitting, american companies like halliburton are already cashing in on proceeds from iraqi oil. and speaking of halliburton, do you remember their "no bid" contracts in iraq?

halliburton is making a killing.
and Gas prices are through the roof.
so what you are saying is that you still don't understand basic economic principles???
we knew that already. you already made that obvious.
anyway:
here's an interesting twist. halliburton has hired mercenaries to provide for security in iraq. this is good for the u.s. because those casualties don't count as u.s./"coalition" casualties. what's interesting is that because halliburton has oil interests in iraq, and as a result they are protected under executive order 13303, halliburton cannot be held legally culpable for anything that their mercenary security forces do in iraq. other than the mercenaries themselves, there is noone to hold accountable for the actions of halliburton's mercenaries aka security forces in iraq.
halliburton's role in iraq has risen to such prominence that bin laden is calling out halliburton out now:
Halliburton Named
It denounces the invasion of Iraq as a money-making exercise and singles out Halliburton Co., formerly headed by U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney. The company is a contractor in the reconstruction of Iraq.
``This war is making billions of dollars for big companies like Halliburton,'' the voice says.
