What country did Iraq invade for oil?
Kuwait, to Iraq's southwest, was conquered by Iraq in 1990.
Kuwait was invaded in 1990 by Iraq who claimed they had been stealing oil by drilling diagonally under the ground and also probably because Iraq did not want to repay the large amount of money they had borrowed from the Kuwaitis during the Iran-Iraq war.
The US and a coalition of other nations then retaliated against Iraq in what is commonly referred to as the Gulf War.

There are different perspectives concerning this question depending on whether the Islamic Republic of Iran (the current government and its Constitution) is a democratic.
No.
Never ever or not at all we could say. because before the Islamic revolution (which comes back in 30 years and the rise of the mullahs), the Shah of Iran was in charge and people didn't have any effect on Governmental issues. Unfortunately, after the revolution, the remaining opposition which could have had a hand in ruling the country have been destroyed by the extremists of the current Islamic regime. The Islamic regime just uses people's votes to select a President who holds its point of view, instead of allowing the people to choose a President who represents their own ideals. People in Iran don't have the right to argue and complain about the regime. They don't have any freedom or security.
Yes.
There is democracy because people vote regularly for a President (currently Ahmadinejad) & 98 percent of people want the Islamic Republic.
Typical International Relations Answer: Halfway
Iran is typically considered an Illiberal Democracy (as opposed to Liberal Democracies like the United States, France, Germany, et al.). That is to say that while there are certain trappings of democracy, they are not sufficient to create a truly democratic atmosphere. Several things that Iran has which make it a democracy include: regular voting periods, different candidates, and different parties with conflicting interests. Several things that Iran has, which preclude it from being a Liberal Democracy include: suppression of political expression, unelected leadership (in the form of the Supreme Leader and his council), repression of political parties, widespread voting fraud, restrictions on the freedom of speech and in the press, required loyalty oaths (this prevents members of Parliament from speaking out on issues for minority constituencies which have been harassed by the government), and unbalanced campaigning (where the "desirable" candidate can slander other candidates, but cannot himself be publicly slandered to the same extent).

What countries do not border Iraq?
the question anticipates a correct answer of oman
since turkey Iraq & Pakistan all share well known land borders with Iran
while oman is separated from Iran by the strait of hormuz
yet oman just as surely shares a border with Iran as do the other 3
the fact that it is a sea border rather than a land border doesnt make it any less of a border than if it were a land border
for it has been fully agreed since 1974
indeed Iraq & Pakistan should also have sea borders with Iran
but these remain only hypothetical blank spaces since they are not agreed
& of the 4 only turkey has not even the possibility of a sea border with Iran
so the answer should rather be hedged as follows
since oman does not border Iran on land
& turkey does not do so on the sea
the one country that does not border Iran at all
would have to be either turman or okey

"How long does it take to get to Iraq by plane from Britain?"
Average citizens cannot legally travel to Iraq unless associated with military operations, news media, United Nation relief efforts, family living abroad and/or religious affliations.
However, a flight out of Great Britain to Iraq would possibly be approx 5- 6 hours just off the top of my head.

ANSWER #2
Iraq is largely an Islamic country, so the gender roles are very clearly defined as they are for most Islamists. Islam is a strictly patriarchal religion such that men are at the head of their family and society generally. The role of women in Islam is also clearly defined. They are expected to be strictly obedient to their husbands. Their role in society is as a wife and mother, taking little or no part in public affairs, especially politics and self improvement through education. In most cases women are not permitted to have a driving licence, let alone drive a vehicle. They are also expected to be modest in their manner of dress at home and in public, keeping most of their body covered, especially the hair.
Why was the US concerned when Iraq invaded Kuwait?
America was allies with both Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. When Iraq invaded Kuwait Saudi Arabia felt threatened, and asked America for help. The US was still trying to regain prestige after Vietnam, and to ensure that it would be the only major superpower after the collapse of the USSR, and it believed a military victory would be the way to do it. So, using the excuse of protecting its oil interests, it invaded Iraq.
