"These girls saw us and were kind of flirting, and they kept asking us if we were American. Finally we said, 'Yes,' and they just took off.

Globe and Mail: Norman Spector 'Of course, it's about oil. So was the first Persian Gulf war against Saddam Hussein. And why else did the Americans, and before them the British and French, penetrate the region in the first place?' Spector doesn't let anyone off the hook here. The Americans want the oil.
