My point is that if the USA is really waging wars that are just about oil then why are we not invading Canada, Mexico, or better yet, Venezuela? Because maybe, just maybe the war wasn't about oil? Hello?

Here's what I think personally, Bart...

Americans know and have known little about the Middle East. All they know is that there are tanned-coloured people over there with different religion, lifestyles and beliefs then Americans. It's easy to get the support for that.

If America tried the same thing with Canada, well. We have the same religion (I hate referring to Canada as religious, but whatever), same lifestyle and the same beliefs.

No politician could EVER pull off such an invasion.

Iraq was easy to do.

Invading Canada for "Terrorists" (ie. oil) would never get off the ground.

Some wars over oil can be just others no; wars refer the matter to God’s Last judgment.

uncontrolled access by multinationals to our resources.

First occupancy doesn't give you a rightful ownership of natural resources.

So who does "own" the natural resources of a country if not it's citizens?

Only those first occupants who are ready to respect the lockean proviso.
