The connection to the money is the petrodollar hegemony.

The exchange of oil for dollars isn't really enforced by the military. (Taxes are)

Iran, Iraq, and Libya would like a word...

Those weren't actually about oil. If they were, we would have taken the oil.

You're right, they were about what format the oil is traded in, not the oil itself.

Nah. Iran can trade oil in rubles and it wouldn't make much difference. The value of the dollar doesn't really come from that.

imo they're more concerned with trading in gold than any other nations' fiat. We can lean on other nations with our force projection, gold just is.
