By saying oil, I was not only meaning the resource but the petrodollar as well. It does not undo the fact that the US invaded and devastated those nations in the name of greed, to support its fictitious currency. Allah may rest the souls of the martyrs Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi. Additionally, the US grossly failed with establishing some competent governments in those areas and now they are plagued with corruption that greatly exceeds those of the previous regimes. In order to ensure its dominance, the American occupier placed a Shiite government in a Sunni majority nation, guaranteeing the escalation of religious extremism. The US is directly responsible for the appearance of the Kharijite ISIS and many related groups which caused untold damage in the Levant.It had nothing to do with oil. We already had their oil via Kuwait and slant drilling (that's what the first gulf war was over). Thinking it was oil is myopic.
Syria, Iraq, Libya were all over their trying to stop trading in US Dollars (The petrodollar/US world reserve currency). That represents a major threat to our interests as our fiat currency only has the value it does because it's what the world uses to trade.
Any threat to that, by other countries (especially smaller countries) showing its feasible to dump the US dollar is met with our military showing up under false pretenses.
Iraq switched to the Euro for trade, and literally the next month we started the invaision. The timeline with Libya was also similar (I think longer than a month though, but we didn't directly invade there like we did in Iraq). Syria's been wanting off the dollar for a long time, hence our backing of the rebels (similar to Libya, but we more or less failed there).
China and Russia are about the only players big enough that we wouldn't directly destabilize/invade them because they've got nukes and they'll fucking use them if we try to force regime change (instead we get in little proxy spats, which Syria also is).
Afghanistan, oddly enough, was just a straight "You don't wanna give up bin Laden and you told us to fuck off? Fuck you."
Aside from the fun, the Iron Dome system would collapse if Hezbollah unleashed its massive rocket arsenal to Israel. However, Hezbollah is an Iranian proxy and its actions depend on the desires or fears of its benefactor. Iran utilises Hezbollah as a form of "conventional deterrence" towards Israeli aggression.
I love it when the rich condescend by boasting about their conspicuous consumption. /s
She's a massive attention whore.What is the deal with this whore? Surely really deep inside she realizes that the Muslims would fuck her up for her degeneracy, after all, they have told her as much. Is she that starved for attention and a feeling of relevancy?
