Oppose the Theft of Iraq's Oil
Please sign the petition
The Iraqi Parliament will soon vote on a US-backed law that could hand
too much oil revenue and control to foreign corporations.
A Sunni, Shia and Kurd Parliamentarian are planning to stand together
and present this petition to the Iraqi Parliament. They want us to
help them show that the world supports Iraq's right to its own oil and
its own future. Sign below to help us reach 100,000 signatures before
they present it.
A message to Iraqis from Citizens around the World:
We support the Iraqi people's sovereign right to the country's oil. We
reject the pressure campaign led by the Bush Administration and multi-
national oil companies to force Iraqis to adopt this draft Oil Law,
which risks conceding extraordinary rights over revenue and production
to foreign corporations.
Iraq's oil wealth should be shared fairly among all Iraqis to help
them rebuild their country. We affirm the right and responsibility of
Iraq's national parliament to take the final decisions on this matter,
and call on the US President and Congress to respect Iraq's
sovereignty. We stand in solidarity with Iraqi leaders who oppose this
unwarranted foreign interference.

Well if they vote on it, aren't they making a decision? Anyway who
says the oil money should be shared? Where else is the money shared?
