Decent article overall. Only mistake is even oil is a distraction as the cost is too much to extract and process the heavy crude and will take a long time to even reach their production levels in 1990's which was the peak. Real reason is probably to expand american influence and put in a puppet head of the state and to appease his base that's the reason he constantly talks about oil as it seems to be a viable reason to invade and most people don't look into the details of it.
