      When I said "occupy" I was referring to the presence on the battle field, not to the post-war administration, which is IMO a totally different problem.

        Well, the object of the war is not to take control of the country; it's to free the Iraqi people. ;P It's very interesting that France wants a huge part in rebuilding Iraq. I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that they will be losing billions in oil contracts if Saddam is out and the US/UK are in?

          You're darn right I'm scared! Communism is something to be very scared about, IMO. BTW, I'm pretty far from being a Nazi. Closer to an anarchist than a nazi.

It's famously known that if Iraq had no resource in Oil and Water, the US would have act the same as they did with NK China Pakistan Cuba...euh, could you give me a sample please? ;P Paul Belikian wrote: I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that they will be losing billions in oil contracts if Saddam is out and the US/UK are in? I think that french oil companies invest in Irak since the 20's, much before the installation of the Baath party by the CIA at the head of the iraqi state. so I don't see why they would have to stop, except by being ousted by american companies.
