If we drilled for oil in Alaska could we end the war in Iraq? I know from a video I watch in class, that we have plenty of oil in Alaska that we haven%26#039;t even touched. The video said that the reason that we don%26#039;t drill for oil there is because to refine and purify the oil there, it would cost alot of money. I%26#039;m not sure how accurate this video is, but if this is true, why don%26#039;t we spend the money to drill and purify the oil and stop wasting time, money and lives in the war in Iraq?

I would like and answer in more than a yes or no in agreement.

Trust me they are already drilling the oil in Alaska and have been for many years, why do people think this isn%26#039;t going on? The oil is sent out of Alaska by huge oil ships. An oil pipeline was going to be built through the Yukon and down through B.C. but the Canadians would not allow it. They also wanted to build a natural gas line but that was turned down too. This oil would not stop the war, the Americans are going to do what they want, and really they don%26#039;t care who it affects. Look and how they don%26#039;t care about what they do to the planet, they also don%26#039;t learn, anyone remember Vietnam?

For those people who don%26#039;t think that oil is being drilled in Alaska where have you been? All you need to do is google oil and Alaska and you will see that oil has been drilled there since the 1970%26#039;s. 17% 1 Vote
