Iraq has opened it’s oil fields to foreign oil companies for development. Short term deals with Shell, Exxon and Chevron are said to be under discussion. Reuters is reporting: Iraq throws open door to foreign oil firms
But any awards to U.S. and British firms could anger opponents of the invasion, who have said the 2003 war was designed to give Western oil companies control over Iraqi oil reserves. U.S. and British officials have denied the charges.
And the Bush administration has stated the war was not about oil. It looks more like the Iraqi government is opening it’s oil fields to give that piece of sh*t Bush and his oil cronies a parting gift. Or is it a way to force coalition armies to stay in the region and protect their interests?
