Backed Assad, RSF, African paramilitary groups, and the attack on Yemen. Lost in all of them.
Hopefully their backing of Israel makes that dirty genocidal apartheid state fail.
Most loser nations: UAE and Saudi Arabia

These are the only strong muslim countries though
Within our lifetime, Oil went from one of the most valuable resources to, in the coming 30-50 years, relegated to plastics and pharamceuticals. These countries know that, and they are planning, that while the sunshines, strenghten their countries for a post-oil world.
They’re only tough against other Muslims. Never their masters Israel and the US.
Oil ain't disappearing anytime soon, maybe if more countries used nuclear energy to generate electricity.
They are what one would call ''Rogue States''.
Indeed. Solar and wind are mostly unreliable and need to be constantly supplemented and backed by fossil fuels. People are also just tripping if they think we can create viable battery powered heavy field machinery, planes and manufacturing. It's not happening. Liquid and gas based fuel sources were revolutionary for a reason; relatively light weight considering the sheer energy density available. Nuclear is a reliable and strong energy source but even it can't completely replace fossil fuels in all their energy functions like those I mentioned and until we somehow crack fusion, it's not a limitless energy source.
Biofuels are a possible strong and truly renewable avenue but they're way too underdeveloped as they are now to take over fully for oil, coal and gas. We're gonna keep digging for fossil fuels until the very last site where the ROI becomes not worth it anymore. When 2 barrels = 1 barrel of production. And that's gonna take a while. Most of Africa and a good chunk of Asia and the seas are still largely unexploited.
Until the energy density of lithium-ion batteries improves, their advantages will continue to be offset by their bulk and limitations. I believe nuclear energy is the way forward, modern reactors are far safer than those of the 80s and 90s, though fearmongering has hindered wider adoption.
Pure EVs, in my opinion, are not the ideal solution. Hybrid models seem more practical for the near future. I also doubt heavy machinery or airplanes will transition away from fuel entirely. Lithium-ion batteries not only have a limited lifespan and significant weight but are also expensive to replace; for instance, a Tesla Model S battery can cost anywhere from $5,000 to $20,000. Now, imagine that level of risk and cost in an airplane. Additionally, fuel has critical operational advantages, airplanes can jettison excess fuel to manage weight, a safety measure that batteries cannot replicate. The thought of a battery fire mid-flight is a nightmare scenario.
Honestly, walaal, I'm of the opinion that there's not really any future for modern civilization as it is. Once the fossil fuels reach an ROI that's no longer worth it to extract them we're finished. Industrial agriculture will collapse and we're too busy chasing profits to design a proper holistic replacement for the "Master Resource" that fossil fuels are. Not to mention the eventual global population decline and collapse (Japan's demographics is the future). You and I probably won't live to see it or will be quite old when it happens but this grand industrial, capitalist experiment will come to a whimpering end.
Leave major cities, find some land in a fertile valley, become as self-sufficient for cunto and power as you can, try to form a community of like-minded ruralites around you and best of luck to your descendants.
