I sometimes wonder if the reason why Bush and Blair went into Iraq was because the amount of global oil reserves are really far less than anyone will let on. Does anyone on here know who quantifies and peer reviews the claims of the oil companies and oil producing nations? Is it credible that they would be realistic about their reserves?
If the situation is far worse than anyone thinks then B & B would have no choice than to annexe the Iraqi oil reserves before the Chinese decide they want it.
