I actually just watched something about the origin of OPEC...
The Saudi King got angry at Israel prevailing in wars launched on it in the late 60s and early 70s, and like other Arab leaders at the time embraced the Palestinian cause (as in "We support them, but don't bring them here.")
So, to punish the West for backing Israel and to wield power he started OPEC and created the 1970s oil crisis by dictating oil production.
