Please Brian, don't be so naive. Of course its about the oil.

I guess I just take your simple one liners at face value. Of course we care about the middle east more than, say, Africa because of oil. We would be stupid not to.

However it is also stupid to claim that our army was there "because of the oil". Frankly, if it was about the oil, we would have pressed to have the sanctions lifted.

Obviously it was not about the oil, but you continue to harp on that to try and rile up the simple minded leftists who hate anything oil related.
