W stuck a tree branch into a hive of killer bees and now they want to sting the hell out of us. As the occupying force, we have to rebuild their infrastructure because we destroyed it but also we can rewrite their laws. We can make ourselves sole customers of their oil. We can make them sell us the oil at 50% OPEC rates until they pay us back as calculated from the remaining 50%. This will give them incentive to get their act together because the longer we're there the more they owe. But let's face it, they're in a civil war so we'll never leave. This will give us a long-term oil supply that we can sell to China at OPEC-5% rates after we replenish our reserves. We use the money and buy back our Treasury Bonds. The US shouldn't be using more oil anyway. The Middle East hates the US. They always will. We need to get over it.<br><b>References : </b><br> Who are we kidding?

For the same reasons The South was excused for paying the Civil War. Same reasons for European countries from having to pay full amount of debt after WWII. When it didn't happen after WW I, Germany was under heavy debt, unemployment, and economic meltdown. Perfect scenario for Hitler to go into power. If we do it in Iraq, it will become perfect place for someone dangerous to sweep into office.<br><b>References : </b><br> No…

Why not make them pay for their "freedom"? If they didn't have oil, we wouldn't be there in the first place, we might have stayed in Afghanistan instead of cutting-n-run there.<br><b>References : </b><br> Sure, it’s been imposed on defeated countries before.
