Very good question...

My answer: The normal practice of the US is to invade countries in the name of "freedom" and/or "democracy", still trying to pass off the 70-year-old WWII 'Calvary'-ideal. Once the country has been "freed", they install puppet regimes that are loyal to US corporations, but appear to the rest of the world (and is usually reported by the media) as a "democratically elected government", or whatnot. That way, they can continue to fool those gullible enough to believe the US is this lily-white paragon of virtue and morality, trumpeting Human Rights, all the while ignoring those countries that consistently break said rights on their own people if they are "allies" and/or have resources the corporations want (i.e. China). Once installed, these puppet governments will facilitate US foreign interest in their region, circumventing international laws without it ever tracking back to the White House. Thus, the power-play against the Saudi's stranglehold on Middle East oil continues.


... which Pro can't answer.

Honestly, no one with the 'Blood for Oil' chants can. If we just invade countries with oil we want, why the fuck haven't we rolled into Venezuela?

An even more impossible question to answer.
