Answer:

By the end of the Second World War, the United States had come to consider the Middle East region as "the most strategically important area of the world." ... For that reason, it was not until around the period of World War II that America became directly involved in the Middle East region.

Explanation:

NATO's strategic planning cannot count upon use of Middle Eastern oil in another war and Western Europe--with United States help-- can probably fight without it. ... The other factors that give the Middle East its vast importance are too well known to need elaboration. The area is a highly important communications hub.
