If I remember correctly, Mossadegh (a previous Iranian president) was set up and kicked out of office... because he didnt want to monopolise the oil in his country. He wanted to offer it to anyone at a fair price, kicking BP etc out of the oilfields. America got majorly pissed off at this, and subsequently launced propaganda against him, claiming that he was behind attacks in the country. My mind is a little fuzzy at the moment, so some details may not be correct, but thats the general gist of it.
America then 'help' elect a new president... who grants them free access to the oilfields, but is a total extremist. Seems like Bush and Blairs only interest is in oil, no matter what the consequences
