On a high level, sure, but how about the details?

Now the USA has stolen Venezuela's oil, the USA will control a large amount of the world's oil supply. This leaves the US and Israel free to conduct wars in the middle east without fear of oil supplies being restricted. In fact the destabilisation of oil supplies from countries like Iran will force countries to buy the USA's newly "liberated" oil.
