Hey B,

I agree with your commentary, however, I must ask, do you think that the Iraqi oil supply is safe now , with all the insurgents who can strike anywhere, anytime?

From the outside looking in, I would say yes. It would make no sense to invade the country,remove a dictator, endure thousands of lost soldiers and Iraqi civilians, not to fortify and protect the oil infrastructure.

Or else they would have done it by now.

I see a permanent military outpost, or "civilian" contractors guarding those pipelines for the unforseeable future.
