This war isn't about getting oil. As it stands we get most of our oil from Alaska, The continental US, Mexico, and Venezuela. Only about 25% of our oil comes from the Middle East. However Japan and Western Europe are heavily dependent on the Arabs oil, so if we are their protecting the resources it discourages other Nations from building up their armies to police the regoin. It all has to do with us remaining the sole hyper power, and as far as Western Europe and Japan goes it is definently working.
