The AP says that Iraq and China have inked a $3 billion oil deal that had been negotiated five years ago then set aside right after the American invasion. If my wife is right, and this is all Cheney cares about, then how did Iraq cut such a deal? Huh? Answer that!
Thanks to Idrees Ahmad for the tip. Ahmad says: "Energy determinists also conveniently overlook the fact that already in 2006 Iraq was renegotiating Saddam-era oil deals with China."
