A telling fact in the whole Iraq thing is the fact that the current war started just after Saddam started selling oil in Euro's and one of the first thing that happened after the then government was deposed was that Iraqi oil was once again priced and sold in dollars - despite this being against their best interests - I think it cost them something like 20% of the price of a barrel.
There are a few wikipedia pages on this concept - why not go have a read, then see if the current occupation of Iraq is a good thing for Iraq as a nation - you could start here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrodollar_warfare and work your way through the links -
