Why We Fight 2005 PG-13

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Why_We_Fight_(2005_film)
Why We Fight describes the rise and maintenance of the United States military–industrial complex and its 50-year involvement with the wars led by the United States to date, especially its 2003 invasion of Iraq. The documentary asserts that in every decade since World War II, the American public was misled so that the government (incumbent Administration) could take them to war and fuel the military-industrial economy maintaining American political dominance in the world. Interviewed about this matter are politician John McCain, political scientist and former CIA analyst Chalmers Johnson, politician Richard Perle, neoconservative commentator William Kristol, writer Gore Vidal, and public policy expert Joseph Cirincione.

Why We Fight documents the consequences of said foreign policy with the stories of a Vietnam War veteran whose son was killed in the September 11, 2001 attacks, and who then asked the military to write the name of his dead son on any bomb to be dropped in Iraq; a 23-year-old New Yorker who enlists in the United States Army because he was poor and in debt, his decision impelled by his mother's death; and a military explosives scientist (Anh Duong) who arrived in the U.S. as a refugee child from Vietnam in 1975.
OIL WARS BY PROXY

A very bloody OPEC oil war
No sooner had David Rockefeller recouped his exposed financial assets in Iran than a major Middle East war broke out in September 1980. The war was between the new Iranian Shi’ite theocracy under Ayatollah Khomeini, and neighboring Iraq, fellow OPEC member headed by secular Baathist Saddam Hussein. The war’s rationale was far different from what mainstream Western media portrayed. The Iran-Iraq War would mark the onset of an almost continuous series of US-directed proxy wars — and ultimately US-led wars — for control of the oil-rich Middle East well into the new Century.

Myths, Lies and Oil Wars is a book which provides lots of interesting and
useful information related to the oil issue and international relations as
whole. Whether a reader would agree or not with the author’s theory
and conclusions, it is interesting material considering the fact that it gives
a radical overhaul to the theories regarding recent conflicts and their
interrelation with the oil issue.
