The first gulf war was nothing to do with oil you dumb cluck, it was about the invasion of a sovereign state, much in the way Germany invade Poland in 1939.
If it had have been about oil then Saddam would have been ousted during that campaign not 10 years later when George backed by his lap dog Blair, authorised the second gulf war, which if you care to remember was sanctioned on the back of a pack of lies about WMDs that didn't exist, and the notion that Iraq could launch a nuclear attack on Britain within 40 minutes, a load of lies dreamt up in Downing Street
