        Being an Army vet who served twice in Iraq, I'd love to know what we were in Iraq for if not for their oil!

        .@WSJ And he's right - we never got any oil from Iraq. Not now, not under Obama and not under Bush.

        Unfortunately Mattis has to spend time walking back Trumps statements and repairing alliances. Words matter and have consequences.

        it's not "taking oil". Its having influence over its production, thus creating price stability

        US was never there to "take" Iraqs oil even w/ Desert Storm. It was to maintain "access" to the oil. Modern America doesn't steal.
