Its Certainly Not Oil of Ulan!

Federal Defence Minister Brendan Nelson has said in a matter of fact way that the war in Iraq is actually about Oil (Read it here).  Also we're there to defend "the prestige" of the USA and the UK.

For fuck sake!  Lets call a spade a spade... we invaded Iraq on false pretences and are now in a bitter fight (and when I say "we" I dont equate our piss poor contribution to the 2-3 thousand dead American marines) to ensure that "energy security" is maintained.

Meanwhile, petrol prices since 2000 have gone up nearly 100%.

Wake up Australia!  Lets pull the plug on this mess already.

Don't have to convince me. It was bloody obvious it was all about all from the get go for my mind.

Fuck America.

Fuck Howard for dragging our soldiers to a shithole in the middle of the desert risking our countrymen's lives so some corrupt republic can steal another nation's oil.

My vote is already going to Rudd next election anyway. Get our boys the fuck out of there right now - this farce has gone on long enough.

When will you fucktards in ignorant 3rd world nations get it?? You joined a coalition of the willing, if you are not willing, then get out of our coalition. We will take away your shiny medals though, you pussies.

We are in Iraq to find the Weapons of Mass Destruction. Once we find them, we will leave. It has nothing to do with oil, weapon sales, or one-bid reconstruction contracts. It has to do with fighting the War on Terror. When you post messages like this, the terrorist start to win!!! Sheesh, shut up, be patriotic and stop thinking already. Aussies need to HTFU.

i heard last week that Egyptians pay the equivalent of 20 cents a litre for petrol...since we're in the area, maybe we should invade and appropriate it...in the name of freedom and peace of course.
