Is this the REAL reason why the U.S. Invaded Iraq?
Well, in the next 10 years the biggest super powers will be China and the U.S. With an ever advancing economy, of course the main concern is how will we obtain the energy to fill the needs of a nation. In the next 10 years, China will have to increase the needs of energy by 30 %. The Middle East has the answer. The amount if fossil fuels left is growing to a very alarming low. The Oil in Iraq is highly coveted and if the U.S. obtains the rights to this oil it will help drive us into a new decade(s), and thus maintain our superpower status. Also, there is always the war on terror, manifest’s destiny, the dream to “democrasize” other nations. And the fact that biological weapons and **** that other countries (including Iraq) can use are scary as hell. But mostly, money is the greatest concern.
