Oliver Stone on X: "In our film #W (2008), we tracked the U.S.-Iran problem in this scene, inspired by #DickCheney’s prophetic presentation in the War Room to Bush’s war cabinet. See the highlight below. "Where do you see a lack of American presence? What's missing? Iran. The motherlode. Third largest oil reserve in the world. Forty percent of the world's oil goes right through here, through the Straight of Hormuz. Control Iran, control Eurasia, control the world. Empire. Real empire." #IranWar‌ https://t.co/mBRwuFgvVx"

    Ironically, Cheney was responsible for 🇺🇸 becoming the number 1 exporter of oil & natural gas by the time the movie came out. More depressing, 🇺🇸 doesn’t need Iran for oil. We just bombing the for trade routes & Israel to benefit.

    Isreal is the culprit , aided by the corporate Z machine and implemented by US puppet politicians on both sides of the house. Oil a bonus bounty! But the result a miserable aftermath with rhetoric and banners gone. I hope Iran kicks more ass! Poetic Justice! Yes a great movie!
