Oil definitely matters but I think a lot of people over estimate how straight forward these wars are

We have a vested interest in pursuing strategies that empower our geopolitical interests in every relevant region in the world

And forn ask the talk about no blood for oil during Iraq and Afghanistan, we've done very little to improve our access to foreign oil. If anything we just doubled down on drilling and fracking at home to make up the difference.
Sure sure but it's still disgusting to be like hey look at this Marine making friends with these locals. People talk about left wing and right wing media but Chomsky's right. All American news is pro-American.
