Iran Oil Corridor

Okay we all know what the Bush Corporate cartel want. And If you look at the map bellow it shows they would only have to actually control HALF of that country to get it. There's nothing in the eastern half of Iran to to go after. It's known that this administration is ran by Corporate Executives, and not military experienced people. Thus the quagmire in Iraq. I used to work for a rather large corporation who's only real concern was their stockholders and the bottom line. So the workers and (in this case our troops) were always working shorthanded, under supplied and so on, and were told to 'suck it up' when the going got tough. And just what were the American Oil Company's record profits reported this last year? I didn't hear of one below 80%. It's all about greed people bottom line.

3. Please note
the Straits of Hormuz...it is the supply choke point for tanker traffic...that is, assuming that the pipelines are not blown up first...also note that western Iran is extremely rugged country

I probably know more about Iran then most of the State dept.- I actually lived there (but only a year).
