But WHY do they care so much about having influence over the middle east? what are they after? what do they want to do with this influence and this access to the economies of the middle east? sure to some extent they seek power for its own sake, and also to some extent they sought to destroy the country so their corporations had a new market to do in as the pleased, but oil is the biggest resource in the middle east its the most important export for almost all middle east countries, and it is also the backing for the american dollar and by extension americas entire monetary imperialist system, they want power in the middle east because of oil.

i mean it was primarily about oil, but sure israel’s interests was also a motivation.

that too but more importantly neoliberalism is basically fascism with a different coat of ideological paint and a little bit less violence, they both arouse to meet the same problems that capitalism was facing and they both sorta do the same thing infact the first neoliberal government Pinoshit’s Chile we call fascists. Also in general liberals make some concessions to the working class, and in general neoliberals destroy them.

The “left leaning” libs predate neoliberalism by like 150 years, they never went away they just stopped having whatever bit of the spot light they had before and now they are making a very slight return. Neo liberalism is very distinct from liberalism (neo classical liberalism to be exact) and it is a distinction worth making
