Howard comes clean on Iraq

rar, I thought it would be a good idea to add this clip from Xenoxnews.com. I'm just quite not sure what they mean by 'dirt' at the end but it sounds right.

Howard comes clean on Iraq

At last - the dirty truth!
John Howard PM:
"It's not about oil, and it's not
about energy security. The reason
that Australia is spending billions
of dollars, and making Oz citizens
targets for Islamic hatred has
nothing to do with oil."
"Indeed it has nothing to do with
Iraq, or America, or the UK, or Israel,
or any of the reasons that seem so
obvious to everyone - even to myself!"
(A long pause, and then the bombshell.)
"We are only there for the dirt!"

Not sure what this all means, Albert :-)
