Wrong, you liberals said the only reason we were going into Iraq was for their oil.Your dear Obama sent the troops there to begin with. Oh, and I'm still waiting on all that Iraqi oil liberals promised us.Ahhh....now I know why Trump moved those 28 troops...to 'protect' the oil...from the Syrians...in Syria...'scratch record'
Yes...not only are we there illegally...supporting groups who terrorise and murder...and rape Syrians (military, and civilian)...but now we are taking the oil too.
Wow...you cocksuckers do realize we ARE the bad guys in this story right?

After meeting with defence leaders on Friday, Mr Trump decided to commit US troops to defending a large swath of land controlled by Syrian Kurdish fighters stretching from Deir Ezzor to al-Hassakeh, officials told the Associated Press.
The decision commits hundreds of US troops to Syria, despite Mr Trump’s promise to get the bulk of the more than 1,200 American soldiers out of the country.

All that Iraqi oil wasn't promised to you by liberals, it was promised to you by Jr., Cheney and RumsFAILED. It was said that the Iraq war wouldn't cost us much, because of all the savings we'd see in the oil we'd get.
Either you weren't born yet when the war started, or you simply just didn't pay attention. Here are quotes of many in Bush Sr.'s admin saying that Iraq would pay for the war with oil.
Who Said the War Would Pay for Itself? They Did!
“When it comes to reconstruction, before we turn to the American taxpayer, we will turn first to the resources of the Iraqi government and the international community.”

“There is a lot of money to pay for this that doesn’t have to be US taxpayer money, and it starts with the assets of the Iraqi people. We are talking about a country that can really finance its own reconstruction and relatively soon.”
Paul Wolfowitz

“The allies [have contributed] $14 billion in direct aid.”

Actually, only $13 billion was pledged, and on the date Cheney spoke only $1 billion had arrived. As of October 28, 2007, the National Priorities Project estimated that the share of Iraq War costs that had been borne by American taxpayers exceeded $463 billion.
