Comments on: Greenspan: “Oil Was Not The Administration’s Motive” For War https://pat-dollard.com/2007/09/17/greenspan-oil-was-not-the-administrations-motive-for-war/ Eventually, I learned the joys of killing. But I’m skipping ahead of myself. I landed in Iraq in November 2004 armed with a video camera instead of a weapon...

No wonder the housing industry is in disarray. He was left the chairman about 15 years too long. Well that clears everything up… No wonder the housing industry is in disarray.

Let's say it's true: well, you can thank the lefties/environmentalists for that. In the 1970's, we were approx. 30% reliant on foreign oil. Since then, we haven't built a nuclear power plant (like they have in France), a refinery, nor drilled for any new oil offshore or in Anwar. And now, 30+ years later, we are 65% reliant on foreign oil. So, thank you lefites/environmental extremists for causing us to go to war in Iraq. Blame yourselves!

Too many people read only the headline and then spout crap. There is nothing wrong with these statements In his new book “The Age of Turbulence: Adventures in a New World,” Greenspan wrote: “I’m saddened that it is politically inconvenient to acknowledge what everyone knows: The Iraq war is largely about oil.” Every war is about the ingredients of the particular nation involved and oil money used to fuel jihad is a major factor. (what should we do with the Saudis?) "My view is that Saddam, looking over his 30-year history, very clearly was giving evidence of moving towards controlling the Straits of Hormuz, where there are 17, 18, 19 million barrels a day” passing through,” Greenspan said. Even a small disruption could drive oil prices as high as $120 a barrel and would mean “chaos” to the global economy, Greenspan told the newspaper. Given that, “I’m saying taking Saddam out was essential,” he said. But he added he was not implying the war was an oil grab, the Post said." And thats the truth about this issue, Oil is a factor but it's not an "Oil Grab". Once again CONTEXT.

Thats the truth. Thats why you don't hear it.
