Yes, and we have lived with the problems that west dependence of cheap oil from the Middle East causes for a long time. For example, western countries support of the overthrow of the democratic Iranian government in the 1950’s, that lead to the brutal Shah regime supported by western countries. The first oil crisis and after that the Iran revolution. The Gulf War, 9/11, the Iraq war and now ISIS.
Middle East oil has very little to do with the West's problems in the Middle East.
