We back the one that is likely to do business with us. We support them with weapons, resources, intelligence or by turning a blind eye. War is a means of making sure that a country ends up with a government that is willing to let its resources be exploited by us.

Do you understand that you just explained France, Germany and Russia's involvement in one fail swoop, but before the invasion? Blind eye, government that cooperated, definitely paid.
Loosing billions, then forgiving any debt that was to be paid off by the oil itself is not well descriptive of war for econimic exploitation. Its like buying an entire airline so you can use your frequent flyer miles to get to the Bahamas.
