"Either I'd go in and take the oil or I don't go in at all," he said. "We can't be the policeman for the world." So Just how much power does he think the United States has over OPEC? And to "just take Libya's oil," I don't know of any oil companies that are even advoacating that. If he really believes that as an acceptable course of action, he is delusional. I know this kind of rhetoric plays well with the far right. It's the John Bolton type of neoconservative chest beating that serves the militants well. How anyone can take him seriously is beyond me, yet in Presidential candidate polls, at least one poll puts him tied for first with Huckabee. Wow! What do these poll numbers say about our country? If he's not pushing the Birther movement, he's sounding like an ignorant imperialist. Will this become the new "American way" if he ever becomes President. And I thought John "bomb, bomb, Iran" McCain was bad. Sheesh.
Well atleast Trump is being honest...Why did Pres. Obama go into Libya?...to protect the civilians from slaughter plus khadafy was brining in Mercenaries to do his fighting...well Syria is kiliing/slaughtering civilians...Bahrain is bringing in troops from Suadi Arabia...and Yeman is killing civilians...why is Pres. Obama not bombing and going to war with those countries...is he a hypocrite?...does he lack a Leaders Foundation?...or is it oil?...
Maybe Trump is being truthfull...if we went into Libya to protect the people, we should be going in those other countries as well...if not then it must be for the oil, because Pres. Obama is not Like Former Pres. Bush is he...he wouldn't go into Libya just to get rid of the Crazy Leader would he...? think about it...

Why should Iraqi not donate oil to us for helping them take out Hussein. I served there for a year saw plenty of people that just wanted to make an honest living and provide for their family. The Iraqi Government is refusing to do the HARD RIGHT and take a stance against extremist that are killing their own people. If Iraqi wants the U.S. to stay and fight the good fight, then we need some compensation or we must get out. But you must remember that when we leave the Muslim brotherhood is going to take over and within a decade the US will be over there fighting another war. In 1991 we were stopped from taking out the sadistic leader and in 2001, ten years later, we went back to finish the job. Ten years after that we are still there. Let’s take a Proactive stance and find a solution for this problem. Do not forgot what happen on 9-11, started WWII, Cambodia after the US pulled out of Vietnam, and what will happen when the U.S. pulls out of Iraqi. The U.S. is dependent on Oil and no one is trying to find a solution for this problem. There are consequences for every action that we take, not only must we look to the short-term, but to the long term effects as well. If gas prices jump to $5.00 a gallon how are you going to respond????
