They are but it's not exactly a conspiracy. It's all out in the open. All major industrialized nations need oil in order to sustain their economies. Oil is a rapidly depleting resource. The middle east has the largest remaining oil reserves on the planet. And you are surprised that the strong nations are bidding to grab it?
Read your history books. Nations and empires have ALWAYS warred for the control of naturual resources. America itself would not even exist if Columbus was not trying to optimize spice routes in the 15th century. Whether it's gold, diamonds, spice or oil - war is about grabbing as much of the primary resource as possible in all historical periods.
