Of course what else. The OIl Barons care zip about human life. Its always all about their bottom line.

Just look at the stock market, how reactive the entire world economy is to the suggestion of a war. This last week's losses were probably mostly related to the threat of war, so damn straight, oil execs are all over this as are the investment industry, and of course the neocons - salivating to go into Syria.
