I think they are referring to Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait, etc. the past few wars the U.S. has been in have largely been fought over oil.

I guess. They did say all modern wars, and those are a few wars that aren't very modern, so I was wondering if there was some other situation they were referring to.

I swear someone said something very like that in amovie I saw recently, but I cannot remember what the movie was.
