In this 6-minute presentation, the well-respected journalist Bill Moyers summarizes and encapsulates the Main, and perhaps the Only Reason that U.S. invaded Iraq.
Please watch this, and judge for yourself:

What Bush and his henchmen have done in Iraq is the perfect reason why countries like Iran (floating over sea of oil) must become powerful economically and militarily so criminals like Cheney would not even think of invading them for oil.

Cheezy ke ayan ast che hajat be bayan ast

I would add that there were several other factors,
1) Wars are always a good thing for making additional money especially if some one else foots the bill like Saudis did for the first Gulf War to the Tune of $80bn. Then, the Saudis bought around $50bn worth of Arms to protect themselves against Saddam or an equivalent. And the best part of all, companies rushing in to get Kuwaity oil back online and making tons of cash in the process etc..
2) The pressure from the Israeli Lobby to get rid of Saddam as he was paying up to $25k to the families of the Palestinian Suicide Bombers.
3) Settling an old score because of Daddy Bush.
4) Finally, the morons (Christian Right)with their extreme views on Islam, the Holy Land and the return of the Jews to this land.
It was All About Oil
by Jahnagard (not verified) on Fri Aug 08, 2008 12:22 PM PDTin 1953 when Dr. Mossadeq was toppled, and it's all about oil now .. All this stuff about spreading Democracy, toppling dictators, etc., etc. is nothing but 'Nonsense'.
As far as U.S. is concerned, its 'National-Interests' are first and foremost. Whenever National Interests come into conflict with Principles such as 'Democracy' and 'Human Rights', U.S.'s National Interests always 'Trump' other issues. Period.
