      You can always count on Uncle Sam to fiercely defend its monopoly on violence, for better and for worse. And doubly so on US soil.

        Invading iraq and plunging the country into crisis and chaos so that American capitalists can extract the oil there is such an absurd conspiracy, I don’t know why people believe it.

        Obviously if there is a dictator somewhere in the world America is completely justified to use inhumane measures to punish the people there for letting that dictator rule.

          In reality though, Iraqi oilfields are mostly owned by BP and the chinese, not the US. So yeah it is a conspiracy
