    Bring the blame to Bush... do you not think this profiteering was forecast before the start of the war?

    This is actually bad news, as Bush will have an excuse to return to Iraq in several years time in order to root out and destroy the "Open Source Threat" with the full support of Microsoft, instead of the oil industry.
