I've been reading many of the articles and opinions about the reasons we went to war with Iraq. The most common reason given to those opposing our action is we did it for the oil. So I did some looking.
The US imports 17% of its total oil imports from Canada. Saudi Arabia is 2nd at 14% and Mexico is 3rd with 13% of the imports coming from there.
Iraq is the 10th highest producer of oil in the world. The US is 3rd and the UK is 9th. Norway is 6th. Invading Norway would have been easier.
So that is it. Johnny Rock has ended it. He no longer wants to hear that the reason we went to war in Iraq was for oil.
