The one that is NOT a reason why the United States is so interested in Middle Eastern affairs is:

B. The countries of the Middle East are all democratic.

Explanation:

Let's take a look at each option and work with elimination to find the right

A. The Middle East produces much of the world’s oil. - True. The Middle East produces about a third of the world's oil, which turns out to be very interesting for the United States. Even though the country's dependency on Middle Eastern oil has decreased, it is still quite important.

B. The countries of the Middle East are all democratic. - This is false and, for that reason, the correct answer for us. Most countries in the Middle East present an authoritarian regime. That is what makes the Unites States pay constant attention to the region.

C. The U.S. supports the protection of democratic Israel and democracy in Iraq. - True. The U.S. has always been vocal when it comes to those issues. Democracy plays an important and heavy role in the way American foreign affairs are conducted.

D. The U.S. is concerned about the spread of weapons of mass destruction and terrorism. - True. Especially ever since the 9/11 attack, the U.S. has shown an increased worry concerning weapons of mass destruction and terrorism. As a matter of fact, we could say foreign affairs were pretty much redesigned by the awful event in 2001.
