Ya think?

DaveO on a rant:

What I really think is going on is FUD to enable a US imperial foreign policy. If he and others can successfully convince the world that there is no problem, then any interventions around the world couldn't possibly be for oil reasons. Surely installing democracy in Iraq is the real reason to invade Iraq if there's no oil problem. But if there is a growing shortage of oil, then perhaps an iraq invasion might be about access to oil instead of 'democracy'.
