Future of Iraq: The spoils of war

The US gov­ern­ment has been involved in draw­ing up the law, a draft of which has been seen by The Inde­pen­dent on Sun­day. It would give big oil com­pa­nies such as BP, Shell and Exxon 30-year con­tracts to extract Iraqi crude.

The pos­si­bil­ity to pass any draft res­o­lu­tion through the cre­ation a state of anar­chy within any coun­try applies to the cur­rent sit­u­a­tion in Iraq, it is the ideal sit­u­a­tion in order to pass a long-term con­tracts for the dig of oil resources in Iraq.

Depend­ing on the tense sit­u­a­tion and dan­ger­ous secu­rity sit­u­a­tion in Iraq makes it a per­fect cir­cum­stance in order to pass the most seri­ous eco­nomic deci­sion in the life of Iraqis and the future of their coun­try [our coun­try].

Iraq has suf­fered for long decades from the colo­nial­ist agen­das to seize the Iraqi oil, nation­al­ists strug­gled for long years to lib­er­ate the Iraqi oil and econ­omy, which depends pri­mar­ily on oil rev­enues. Plun­der­ing Iraq’s oil was put to an end with the deci­sion of nation­al­iza­tion of Iraqi oil 1971 oil.

If you really to know how they pre­pared the Iraqi for this deci­sion then you should go back three weeks ago, to see what hap­pened in the dark cor­ri­dors of the Iraqi Parliament.

A report on Al-Sabah [Iraqi gov­ern­ment con­trolled] news­pa­per, [cel­e­brated by at least one Iraqi Blogger]this is what it read:

Iraqi Par­lia­ment in dis­cus­sion on 30% of oil sales income to dis­trib­ute among the cit­i­zens of Iraq

Econ­o­mists esti­mated Iraqi oil annual pro­ceeds are more than thirty bil­lion dol­lars, approx­i­mately ten bil­lion dol­lars will be dis­trib­uted among Iraqi cit­i­zens in the form of monthly salaries.

The ques­tion is: WHY?, Iraqi gov­ern­ment cur­rently work­ing on link­ing the Iraqi econ­omy to the global cap­i­tal­ism, Impe­ri­al­ism econ­omy sys­tem and to meet the inter­ests of these seg­ments with what was going on in Iraq. The first step was the open mar­ket econ­omy, which achieved in a record time dis­tor­tions in the Iraqi soci­ety struc­ture, unem­ploy­ment cri­sis, uncon­trolled domes­tic mar­ket prices and unclear eco­nomic plan.

Iraqi gov­ern­ment cur­rently work­ing on link­ing the Iraqi econ­omy to the global cap­i­tal­ism econ­omy sys­tem and meet the inter­ests of these seg­ments with what was going on in Iraq.

The deci­sion of dis­trib­ut­ing oil rev­enues among Iraqi cit­i­zens wasn’t an arbi­trary deci­sion, it was well stud­ied and planed deci­sion came to pre­pare the Iraqi street for a later imperialist’s decision.

I hope Iraqi peo­ple can under­stand that Sov­er­eignty is not polit­i­cal mat­ter only, It is the whole package.

    Hi LB! ; )

    Do I think that Bush and his team would have let one US sol­dier die if Iraqis did not have oil? No, they would have let the coutry rot in hell, unless there was another resourse they wanted and needed to “pro­tect their way of life”.

    Oil oil oil, soon water water water, always Israel Israel Israel are the rea­sons why the US and its allies are in the mid­dle east the last 60 years.

  4. Put your­self in the mind of any big inter­na­tional oil com­pany, west­ern or non­west­ern. Would you have any trust in any 30-year agree­ment with any Iraqi organization?
