As soon as power is handed to the Iraqi, they should nationalize oil wells

1. But why do you think it's taking so long to set up a government?
We need to find someone who is acceptable to all three groups, and a group who will not overturn Bremer's proclamation that Iraqi resources can be foreign owned.

3. Power is not going to be given to the Iraqis
At least until we get all of our oil out from underneath them Iraqis sand. Bush didn't invade Iraq to dig up mass graves.

4. Just like Nasser and the Suez canal?
Maybe this is another Suez crisis. That ended Britain as a world power.
