who watched the documentary by john snow on ch 4 the other day?
militias from one side who used to behead people
now recruited and funded by americans for neighbourhood watch.
militias being used by government persons to force their views and wishes upon the other
shia militants now in power
sunni regrouping
both sides armed and dangerous
poverty for the ordinary non militia iraqi man
i wonder what's gona happen when el americanos go?
interfaction fighting while the opil is still being leeched

what is going on with the oil? where does the money from oil sales go? where does the oil physically go?

Why can't the world go back to different provinence(s) where everyone lived happy in their own. be so much easier. no tibet fighting no iraq civil war

the horrendous stuff that's going on is crazy. what happened to the middle class in iraq?

one fo the peeps being interviewed said Iran was supplying them with ammunition. i guess it's the shia peoples who are being supplied by iran. and was talking about old austrian shells being used for roadside bombs

if iran is supplying the militias with armoury, is it a justifiable reason to command and conquer?

but main question
what happens to the oil in physical terms that's being pumped out of iraq? where is the money going?

in a nutshell there isnt that much oil being pumped out of the ground.

Its still BELOW the levels saddam was producing whilst the oil for food and other sanctions were put upon iraq.

Iraq need the expertise of the big oil companies to improve their infrastructure when it comes to oil production and none of these companies have been allowed in as the iraqi parliament has been debating for years what the foreign investment and hydrocarbon laws should be.

Where does the oil money go? Well probably added to Iraqis currency reserves. According to their gov;t stats they only have something like 13/14 billion dollars in their coffers. - thats nothing at all

So in the meantime your average joe bloggs can starve.

The big losers in Iraq are the Americans and the Sunni's.

America has wasted 4,000 lives and up to $2 trillion; with that money and manpower, they couldve stamped out generational problems like crack and gang violence across their own cities. But nooooooooo, they had to sail 8,000 miles across the world for a right pasting. 5 years later, America is still bogged down in shootouts with bandits and ragtags. The Iraqi's still dont want them in their country. If the Americans leave, the terrorists will follow them and Iraqis will kill each other on an industrial scale. How they can honor their airforce pilots and soldiers with medals, parades and neat obituaries, for having dropped bombs on non-combatants, but vilify unemployable clerics, surviving on welfare handouts, for encouraging young men to blow themselves up in defiance and resistance, is beyond me.

The Iraqi Sunni's have thrown in their lot with Islamic fundamentalism and where has it got them ? They got their butts kicked by the Shia, they have been excluded from Iraqi politics, nobody wants to have anything to do with them and non-Sunni's are determined to churn them out of Iraq's oil riches. If the Sunni's just took a chill pill, then Im pretty sure the Americans will improve their pathetic lives with electricity, water and petrol. You cant be blamed for slaughtering your occupier but you can bomb and shoot up your shithole and your countrymen as much as you like, but when your occupiers leave, hopefully one day, you still have to go on living with your countrymen in that shithole.

You know what really pisses me off, are the neoconservatives in Washington and Muslims around the world, esp. the Pakistani rabble rousers in the UK. They talk about what's best for Iraq and Iraqi's like they own the fucking place. Hey, Ive got ten words for you, GET OFF YOUR COUCH AND FIND A FUCKING J-O-B, PLEASE.

Iraqi's are like a sandwich, between the vengeful Muslim world and the smug democratic West.

Iraq, what a waste.
