It's not a question of wanting war but a question of how long are US and UK forces are willing to keep patrolling Iraq from Saudi Arabia and the Gulf enforcing these "no-fly" zones and enforcing UN sanctions that hasn't worked these past 13 years.

Yes you could say it was for oil but that isn't the primary reason like it was in 1991.

IMHO, the sooner we resolve the Iraq crisis, the better. The longer the US stays in Saudi arabia, the more ammunition it gives Osama Bin Ladin and his cronies to wage war and to recruit individuals.

Saudi Arabia has already stated that as soon as the Iraq crisis is over, the US must leave Saudi Arabia.
