Oil remains a strategic priority: control over global supply routes like the Strait of Hormuz and access to regional reserves give the U.S. both economic leverage and geopolitical dominance. It’s rarely framed this way publicly, but energy interests have long shaped Middle East interventions.

the social issue with Iran is they keep funding terrorism and attacks on israeli citizens .. the nuclear issue is only a variable in larger factors .. if you could take away your mortal enemy's nuclear capability would you? oil is a red herring ..

I’m beginning to feel as though so much of what we think about geopolitics is tainted by propaganda. You may be right. I wouldn’t, though. Take away my enemy’s weapons, I mean. We’re all just people. If we have a right to them, so do they. There’s no honor in winning by crippling an enemy.
