Oil prices surge to record highs

The BBC reports that the price of crude oil is continuing its “record breaking surge” amid unrest in Iraq.

This, of course, gives rise to an obvious, overly simplistic, but nonetheless relevant question.

Why doesn’t the media seem to be saying that the war was all about procuring cheap oil for the U.S., anymore?

If that was the plan, it sure has backfired.
