It still kind of surprises me Iraq is still a country. I'd of thought they'd have broken apart by now. That would be just fine for the Kurds and Shia (because they'd have the oil) but the Sunni would have little but sand.

Maybe thats the point.

Oh, and movieman88,

What oil are you talking about? Oil was t he real reason we went into Iraq but we got very little out. We spent lots and lots of money trying to repair and rebuild pipelines and refineries but when they were repaired someone blew them up.

Its been awhile since I checked but I think the main way of getting oil out is still by tanker truck. But things are probably better in the Kurdish region.
