Depleted Uranium: USA's Gift to Iraq

War on Terror

Depleted Uranium: just another one of those precious little "gifts that keep on giving" that the United States has given to Iraq. And all they have to do to thank us is sign lucrative long-term contracts with big oil companies.

Lucrative contracts for the oil companies, not Iraq.

but i thought iraq was to depose saddam due to WMD's?
oh..wait..yeah..
but didnt they say it was to "spread democracy"?
douuh!
well thank god i bought an asston of stock in haliburton and blackwater!

USA: "Hey Iraq, aren't you glad we got rid of Saddam?"

Iraq: "Yes, but...."

USA: "But nothing. He was like an axe in your back and we took him out!"

Iraq: "Yes. You took out the axe, but then you stuck in a knife."

Two years before the invasion of Iraq, oil executives and foreign policy advisers told the Bush administration that the United States would remain "a prisoner of its energy dilemma" as long as Saddam Hussein was in power.

Good thing Saddam's gone now!
