What they have now figured out by egging on Al Gore and his fellow US energy suicide acolytes that they can sell their oil in the future at at over $100 a barrel to pay their bills. That is the main motivation why they hate George W. Bush because thanks to GW Iraq is now rejoining the ranks of world petroleum suppliers.
Now you know the real motives behind the Nobel Peace Prizes.
