I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but some people are going to make a lot of money from this. Who makes the most? Unclear. Even Saudi Arabia benefits, if it results in persistently higher prices and greater geopolitical support.

What you said is entirely meaningless. Someone is always making a lot of money. Any situation results in winners and losers.

By your logic no one should ever question the financial motivations of anyone, ever. It seems completely reasonable to me to question who stands to gain the most from something like this.

I was replying to the first statement. You are talking about the second and putting words in my mouth.

Considering that the actors causing the attack are unknown, it makes sense to consider who would benefit from it. Can you explain why you view this as "entirely meaningless"?
