No, way of life. You have no more any one, thinking only by your Dolar
and your weapons..



Weren't Saddam's weapons French and Russian?


No, he used US choppers to gas his Kurds.

Weren't Saddam's oil
contracts with France and Russia?


Non, they were american too; the same companys that were negociating with
the Taliban up until 9/11 for pipelines through Afghanistan.


Incorrect on both counts

The company awarded the contracts for refurbisihing existing
fields in Iraq and expaning new ones was TotalFinaElf

Unocal withdrew from the Afghan pipeline project in Dec 1998
