Finally admitting that Iraq is about the oil

Bush: U.S. Must Protect Iraq From Terror

Bush said the Iraqi oil industry, already suffering from sabotage and lost revenues, must not fall under the control of     Osama bin Laden and al-Qaida forces in Iraq led by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

"If Zarqawi and bin Laden gain control of Iraq, they would create a new training ground for future terrorist attacks," Bush said. "They'd seize oil fields to fund their ambitions. They could recruit more terrorists by claiming a historic victory over the United States and our coalition."

It's too bad Bush didn't take out bin Laden and al-Zarqawi when he had the chance. Then they wouldn't be available to take over Iraq's oil fields.
