Bina on Iraq

[Thomas Seay]

I found this piece to be interesting.  I have been
putting forward (mostly on other lists) that this
slogan "Blood For Oil" has real problems (1) because
of the relatively "bloodless" (at least in terms of US
casualties) nature of recent US "wars" and (2) because
I am not convinced that it is PRIMARILY about oil.

Anyway, I would be interested in hearing what some of
the economists on this list have to say about this
piece.
