Should we now refer to oil as "Conflict Oil"....

[Aviation Pro]

...like we refer to some diamonds as "Conflict Diamonds?" There seems to be a dearth of peaceful oil producing nations and most are either in conflict, near a conflict zone or at risk.

1. Never heard of "Conflict Diamonds"

2. Diamonds from African nations

Whose income funds both repression and rebellion.

So the dollars spent on a fabulous diamond bought a rocket grenade that brought down a one room schoolhouse.

3. Blood diamonds. If you ever plan to buy diamonds, check into Canada. I think they have

diamonds that are certified blood-free.
