Yup!
A former top US general has admitted the war in Iraq was about oil. Former CENTCOM Commander General John Abizaid told an audience at Stanford University “Of course it's about oil, we can't really deny that." Abizaid went on to say “We've treated the Arab world as a collection of big gas stations. Our message to them is: Guys, keep your pumps open, prices low, be nice to the Israelis and you can do whatever you want out back." General Abizaid's comment comes one month after former Federal Reserve Chair Alan Greenspan wrote that “the Iraq War is largely about oil."

It took him this long to tell the truth. I know the 3800 dead soldiers would have liked him to speak up sooner. Alan Greenspan already let American know it was about oil. I guess General Abizaid is looking to make some points with the new Administration too.
