Oil is King (or at least President)

Okay, so has anybody figured out yet what all this sabrerattling over invading Iraq is really about yet? Why after taking the time to “coalition build” before bombing Afghanistan into a new area code, Mad King George is all ready to go after Iraq all by himself (er, figuratively, of course)?

Is it that the oil pipeline can't be run through Afghanistan like they thought?

Or is it that UnoCal wants oil prices higher so that they can make more profit off the pipeline when they build it (with government subsidies)?
