Oil, Iraq and U.S. Foreign Policy: A Way Forward (Part II)

Is Seeking Alpha about making money or propagating political ideology?
Phrases such as "Unilateral military expansionism", definitions of the word patriot and strategies for meetings with the UN Security Council, are better suited for a blog that is focused on political thought not money. The author is incredibly naive as he believes that Haliburton, Total and other oil companies can simply "negotiate contracts in order to divvy up the Iraqi oil and gas resources". Corporate colonialism is a simplistic notion that is suited for 19th century India. However, based on the results that the author expects from a US declaration of defeat in a meeting of the Security Council it is evident that simple notions and thoughts are his specialty.
