> I don’t know why everyone constantly mentions oil. We get most oil from the Americas and Africa. Saudi Arabia is the only mid-eastern country we get significant amounts of oil from, but it’s only 10-15%. The reason we are over there “for oil” is because we protect those fields so it doesn’t go to shit, requiring other countries to get oil where we get ours from, thus driving prices up even further. Anyone who thinks we are there to take oil is mistaken. We’re there so people don’t take from our sources.

This. 100%

I do think the US needs to start minding their own fucking business though. It’s starting to get old.
