Not lately but I remember years ago during W Bush I was saying the war with Iraq was just about oil and not WMDs and I had some friends supporting the war cuz go america and they got furious with me. We were still friends but when it turned out I was proven right they kind of stopped talking to me out of shame. We also just lost touch which is natural but I think politics played a part.

The invasion of Iraq wasn't about oil. China ended up with most of it IIRC. It was about destroying a threat to Israel. Israel was literally the only one who benefited - everyone else lost.

Who? The Israelis? I think you're mistaken.
