And you didn’t understand that?

Well, I didn’t understand your logic.

So the west pays and supports the bad guys because we don’t want other bad guys to support them?

No, mainly because it’s pointless not to buy their oil— and keep a military presence there, and enjoy other benefits— as long as we’re buying that amount of oil. Because, again, oil is fungible.

As long as we buy X oil, the Arab world profits by that. The only way to reduce their profits is buy buying less oil.

Please try sourcing your claims about the oil reserves so you don’t look like you just believe what’s convenient for yourself, by the way.

Doubt you will.
