The profits of Exxon, the world's biggest oil company, TRIPLE thanks
to the Iraq war:

Oil Giant Shell's profits DOUBLE thanks to Iraq war:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/2995325.stm

Oil Giant BP makes a RECORD $3.7bn IN JUST 3 MONTHS, helped by the
Iraq war:

But these are only small temporary gains by the oil giants that funded
and supported oilman Bush and his oilmen cabinet into power:

Even the proceeds of the oil stolen from the countries attacked by
America will soon fade into insignificance.

The real profits will be made when US control over the world's richest
oil supplies enables them to manipulate the price of oil at will.


http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/3012609.stm
America has now proposed that "... Britain and the United States -
known as The Authority - would decide how income from the sale of
Iraqi oil would be spent."

Bush promised that Iraq's oil would be held in trust for the Iraqi
people. Now he is about to take control of the oil for himself and his
oil cronies. These corrupt oilmen will make $billions from Iraq's oil,
from oil-industry-related contracts and from maniuplating the price of
oil on global markets.


Permanent US bases in occupied Iraq will soon be used to mount the
next oil-robbery attacks - on Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia and other key
oil countries - bringing increased control over global oil markets,
resulting in increased profits. The taxpayer will fund this
nationalised armed robbery and ordinary people everywhere will pay the
highest price as instability and hatred grow.

They are abusing democracy. They are abusing your rights. They are
abusing freedom. They are abusing the weak and the vulnerable. It is
time people knew the truth:
