In the 1980s when Iraq invaded Iran, the ships in the Persian Gulf carrying our oil came under attack by Iran. The US military had to step in to "protect shipping in the Gulf". (It's also a little known fact that the US pretty much dstroyed Iran's navy in less than a week.)
Twenty years from now when the oil starts running out, when it becomes harder to find and more expensive to pull out of the ground, we could see WWIII. We'll be fighting all of the other countries who need the same oil we do. China will be involved, and make no mistake they are in fact a world power (and huge!). Japan too will be involved; They've already gone to war with us over oil in WWII.
The Middle East will be the battlefront.
Hopefully by then we'll still have a huge presence in the Middle East. And only then will we look at President Bush and his crowd in a different light.

Yes it is... and if you read the document "Rebuilding Americas Defenses" by the think tank "Project for the New American Century" (
http://www.newamericancentury.org/) it begins to become clear why Bush went into Iraq. You'll recognise many of the names that were involved.
Now whether or not they actually masterminded 911, I don't know. But it sure was a gift from god for their agenda. i.e. they want permanent bases in the middle east so they can shift carriers into the pacific, i.e. China/Korea etc.
