...but rather an article generally describing wars over petroleum resources. 68.173.0.226 ( talk) 15:10, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
I'm sorry, but I don't really understand the sentence "It argued that proponents of oil wars underestimate the ability to seize and exploit foreign oil fields, and thus exaggerate the value of oil wars". Can someone please explain it? I would appreciate it. CaffeineP ( talk) 04:17, 11 April 2021 (UTC)
Is this a myth? (Please discuss).
Seriously, also the definition itself is really vague...I am afraid some sockpuppet has edited the article.

The website says she is in energy politics, but all her writings..are about oil, all of her writing on the last 6 years say oil is not a cause for conflict. Many authors or people have said the reverse....the then president of South Africa had said "All he wants [Bush] is oil" - Nelson Mandela. Also she says on one of her written things, that climate change and conflict are disconnected....i'm not trying to reduce the issue, but that's relatively unlikely. The article does explain naff all how do they do? Can they do everything? Is it enough? The article quotes the book, without quoting any of its content...
@CaffeineP
It should be tagged as disputed and I will.

There are also books pretending the reverse of what said this US advisor... https://www.amazon.com/Petro-Aggression-When-Oil-Causes-War/dp/1107654971
At least the author of that one book did not, work for one of the involved parties. Also the article is so much centered at US. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:E34:EC12:36C0:694A:3DA2:93B6:BB94 ( talk) 18:13, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
