Bush and Obama don't hate each other. The only POTUS that other POTUS seem to dislike is Trump.

The problem with conspiratorial thinking like this is it depends on world leaders having foresight, competence, and wisdom.

That's what wars are for. Why be smart when you can just send poor people to die for your benefit.

There's no such thing as rivialry, that is all

This meme misses the mark. These oligarchs have rivalries in the same vein as the feudal lords and kings had rivalries: they played a game with the other lords where common people were their pawns. The opponents were respected or hated, but treated as equals. The pawns were there just as a means to an end.
