9/11. conflict and oil.
Several conflicts have been influenced by oil interests, notably the Gulf War in 1990-1991, where Iraq's invasion of Kuwait was driven by control over oil resources. The Iraq War in 2003 also had significant ties to oil, as securing access to Iraq's vast oil reserves was a key factor in the U.S. decision to invade. Additionally, the Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988) was partly fueled by disputes over oil-rich territories and control of oil production.
