Is there any evidence for the Iraq War being about oil?

the US gave the contract to rebuild the Iraqui oil feilds to Halliburton (Dick Cheney's) company.

And who were they supposed to give it to?

someone who wasn't the vice president of the country invading Iraq?

So, reccomend a company in your infinite wisdom.

Reccomend an American company that could conduct reconstruction of the oil fields that had the size and scope of ability to take care of such a project. Someone that has major offices based in both the US and Mid East, with close ties to projects in the area.

Go ahead, I'm waiting.

I know you're a mod but F*** YOU

GTFO if you're going to abruptly challenge people in this way.

I haven't been a mod in a year, what are you talking about?

My point is to suggest what other companies had the actual capacity to take on these projects that people are arguing as being the conspiracy behind the war. I believe the truth is that, unfortunately, Haliburton was one of the few companies that had the capacity to meet the requirements of awarding contracts in Iraq.

I used no name calling, no attacks on anyone. I was just merely asking for someone to give some suggestions, and some have. I don't see why you have to be so attacking towards me, if I'm trying to debate the argument logically.
