Formr, Iraq production announced in December now exceeds (barely) its pre war production levels.

dontb1 --- Then take into consideration inflation, the threat of recession & loss of value of the dollar --- It has stressed every state in the United States, less money for increased needs for security & 1st responders

J, Pakistan is a problem because of its failure to move to full democracy.

Libya is no longer on the axis of evil list after turning in its nuclear weapons program equipment.

Yemen is about the same. (Remmeber USS Cole?)

formr: Iraq production. My original comment was about supply.

Prior to the invasion, Iraqi production was 2.6 million bbl/day.

They are producing less than 2 million bbl/day now.

dontb1,,, Am I hoping for the worst ??? Hell no ---- I expected it, Bush has always been incompetent & a Fraud
----- There are now more problems in Pakistan, just as many if not more in Iraq & Afaganistan, Lybian terrorism is on the rise along with every country in North Africa, Yemen is now a safe-haven for Al Queda & Iraq insurgents -- Tomorrow''s terrorist will be better trained.
