Economist in 2003 predicted Iraq war cost $2Trillion/$75oil

2008-10-06T18:49:01Z

Peace great for economy. War great for oil. (March 17, 2003)

2008-10-06T18:49:02Z

Two days before the invasion of Iraq, the stock market soars on the news that war might be avoided, while the price of gas soars on the fear it might not.

This clip caught my attention because the ending struck me funny. But the more I thought about it, the more it made me think about just whose interests were being served here.

The 2007 National elections are approaching in Nigeria. People & Power reporter Juliana Ruhfus and director Hazel Chandler travel to the conflict ridden and oil rich Niger Delta to explore what is at stake. In spite of the Delta's vast oil wealth the people are poor -- and deprived of a democratic voice. As a result, the last 15 months has seen an escalation in militant groups operating in the region.
