Are there any other reasons apart from oil that led the US to invade Iraq?

Question

And why are they still there?

And as well as apart from being "good samaritans" (because i mean c'mon!)

Answer 1

I don't think anybody except the American President would expect the world to believe that they invaded Iraq because of altruistic reasons.

"We destroyed them for their own good." Its a sick joke, surely.

Another reason might be to do with the mental condition of the President.

He suffers from extreme megalomania and imagines he has the right to kill thousands of his own people and others merely because he can.

The last possible reason- he is the anti-Christ and this is a preamble to the end of the world through nuclear war with the Russians.

I think it is the last one, because nobody would be that stupid.

Answer 2

Nope.

To protect the interests of the oil company owners.

The American government doesn't know the meaning of the term "good samaritan"....everything it does is only for it's own benefit. If they cannot get something out of it they won't do it.

There will be plenty of people who prefer to believe that America's government is only looking out for it's people but those are the people who the government depends upon to stay blind to the fact that they're being duped.

Answer 3

Because President Bush has a personal stake in it. His family makes their money from oil. Him and V.P. CHENEY have done some crooked things in their own interest to make sure that they stay RICH once out of the WHITE HOUSE. And I truly believe he did it to s***w over the next president. He ran amuck  and they let him. Although there was a point when they thought of Impeaching him .Wish they would have. There still there because he keeps using excuses to not bring them home. That country is NEVER going to be CIVIL . Their use to things one way. And there NOT GOING TO CHANGE.

GOOD SAMARITAN'S , well seriously we should be helping our own first before we go and throw away billions of dollars to rebuild someone else's country. Our own country is in bad economic shape.People losing their homes, high food and gas prices. Loss of jobs. So they should focus on being good samaritan's in this country first because after all it's our tax money that's rebuilding IRAQ !
