'In March 2003, weeks after the invasion of Iraq, war architect Richard Perle resigned from his position on the Defense Policy Board in an attempt to “defuse a controversy over charges he stood to profit from the war in Iraq.”
But that hasn’t stopped Perle from continuing to seek profit from the war. Citing documents and people close to the negotiations, the Wall Street Journal reports today that Perle “has been exploring going into the oil business in Iraq and Kazakhstan.' http://thinkprogress.org/2008/07/29/perle-oil/

Perle's decision was motivated by the fact that most Americans have only a maximum of 2 hour attention spans.

"Iran's oil is next."
Actually you are only partially correct....Iran's oil is secondary to the actual real estate, just icing on the cake.
Zbig has been salivating over the gas feilds in central asia ever since the Carter years. Look at how our US outposts are encircling nearly all of the Trash-can-istans now..... Iran's real estate is the last piece of this 30 year puzzle.

I think the longterm goal in the region is to prevent any central asian energy coridors from developing outside of Western control. Neocon's have used direct attacks/invasions to accomplish this. The alternative seems to be Zbigniew Brzezinksi's covert destabilization and burn down of central asia plan. Zbig wants to destabilize central asian countries and get them to make war with one another. Sort of like the Iran-Iraq war where we sat on the sidelines selling weapons to both sides. One of Saddam's greatest "sins" in the Iran-Iraq war was his unwillingness to pay back all his war debts.

Really, there's no need to go to conspiracy sites to get this info.... it comes straight out of the mouth of people like of Zbigniew Brzezinksi. A fact that you yourself highlight.

Speaking of big oil....

It's good thing that coup was nipped in the bud.... before anything nasty happened to Saudi oil production. And besides, King Abdullah is downright civic minded compared to the rest of the Saudi cleptocracy.
