What scares me is that for years the Fed was headed by a man so totally
disattached from reality as Greeenspan was and is. I heard the same *war
for oil* statement four years ago from a tenth-grade, negro, high school
drop-out who hung around the YMCA until the smart kids got out for the day.
He's no longer there--presumably now working in high finance somewhere in
government.
Lordy lordy.
One might almost infer that the boy knew something that you didn't.
Probably not. _Saddam_ was prone to go to war for oil, and therefore
the entity with the most to fear from a hypothetically nuclear Iraq
was the Saudi monarchy. Because with nukes, Saddam could have taken on
the Saudis without the U.S. intervening.
So it really was about national security, but not so much the national
security of the U.S. or Israel for that matter.
