As a result of the Iraq war, is Britain or the US benefitting from Oil extraction?

No. Oil output is actually lower than it was before the war. Oil pipelines are consistantly bombed by insurgents and protecting their entire length is very difficult. Until this stops, no one, neither Iraqi's, US or Britain will ever benefit from oil extraction in Iraq.As a result of the Iraq war, is Britain or the US benefitting from Oil extraction?
Hahahahaha. You really don't know anything about the war. Report Abuse

Since it's obviously not an either/or question, the answer is No. The land is too war torn for oil extraction to be as safe as it was, since the government in their country no longer has the major control of oil with the guns to protect it.
i do , when the usa and its allies, invaded iraq one of the military objectives was to secure the oil fields and pipe lines. so if they are not benefiting from it. why secure it 24/7.
