Actually, One Winged Angel, I would disagree with you there. I would tender that it IS about removing Saddam and his gov, and replacing it with one primarily under US control. And anyone who got in with the US on the ground floor (eg UK) gets a divvy up of the proceeds, and anyone who opposed the US invasion doesn't.
It's called Imperialism, and it's one of the things that we Brits did well in the past. You know, "liberating" a country and claiming ownership.
