No! It isn't worth the trouble. And I think The West wouldn't have intervened in hindsite. But the dollar marks were in Bush's eyes before the war. I suppose he saw the potential profit but didn't consider the overall cost.
The West get most of their ME oil from Saudi Arabia. But during early 21st century Iran has sanctions placed on them.
They don't invade because they have control without needing to. But I doubt China would go to war if African nations became hostile towards them nonetheless. But the West wouldn't have needed to go to war with Iraq or Libya if Saddam or Gadaffi were friendly. It was because they weren't that they decided to invade on a bogus claim.
Well I agree. But these wars are not about benefiting the general public but the big corporate oil giants and keeping the price of oil sustainable.

So why don't we also get our oil from Iran?

And the Chinese do not invade those African countries. They just set up outposts where they send their businessmen and labourers. In fact Chinese investment has been relatively positive for African countries.

Essentially I think we Westerners are stupid! Its all based on ego and a tremendous will to power. We could live comfortably without needing to do any of this.
The idea that we would all suddenly turn into paupers if we stopped ruining an Arab country every five years has no basis in fact or reality.
