Yup. https://www.eurasiantimes.com/first-freight-train-from-china-wheels-into-iran/

I recommend checking out Ben Norton (Geopolitical Economy Report on youtube).

Everything the US has ever done in the region was to destabilize the middle east so they could steal all the oil.

Neocon I assume you meant. I don’t recall the NYT ever wearing a mask over it. Bill Kristol was a regular columnist during the war on terror.
That Time Thomas Friedman Told Iraq to "Suck on This"

I don't find there's any substantive difference between neocons and neolibs, especially on foreign policy.

Neoliberal and neocon

What is the difference?

Neocons want to murder poor people and steal their natural resources.

Neoliberals want some of the murderers to be women

I think neoliberals are more like "We should do this war to help companies make bigger profits" and neocons are more like "We should do this war because i like the smell of flesh when it burns."
