Oil needs a lot of investment before it becomes profitable.
Production plants never become profitable.
DF: Nuke their capital first - that takes their war index down significantly (although it also unfortunately takes their population down too). Considering that it will be well defended, you might consider removing the defenders first.
EDIT: Crossed out incorrect information.

My students have begun organizing their nation of Radsu.
They are also playing a game I designed called "Bronze Age" where they control Bronze Age empires on a map.
The five students who were most interested took the first letter of their Bronze Age empire to make their nation's name:
R aikan
A gladar
D arsh
S ark
U mbia
They occupy a nation right above my own of Riis in the Draca Mixor continent of White Giant.
Further, one of my students also took his own Bronze Age nation (Hanororn) and used that name to make his own nation on White Giant.
The Republic of Radsu
Their government is ruled by a President and several selected Ministers which make up his cabinet.
The remaining students in the upper elementary make up the House of Representatives.
The current President is James S. He will be president until next Wednesday by special appointment of his people. James is generally regarded as the best politician in the class. 
His cabinet is made up of some of the finest minds in Radsu. The cabinet is made of two parts: the Home Ministers and the Foreign Ministers.
The Home Ministry is made up of:
Minister of Human Services: Kevin E.
Minister of Transportation: Brandon B.
Minster of Finance: Robbie E.
Minister of Internal Security: Steve W. (ME, the teacher)
The Foreign Ministry is made up of:
Minister of Foreign Policy: Cody B.
Minister of Trade: Colby K.
Minister of Defense: Mindon W.
The House of Representatives is made of the remaining students. Their Speaker is Colie P. Each Representative represents a city in Radsu. They will each be renaming their cities soon.
Current issues in the House to be discussed are the flag of Radsu, the name of its capitol, and the specifics of electing a new president and his/her cabinet.
Each cabinet member is responsible for their Ministry. As you can see, and from what you know, the Human Services Minister will be busy, as will the Trade Minister (responsible for corporations).
Some notes: The ladies of the class showed little interest in the Simcountry game until I called the whole class into a meeting and explained they now had powers and responsibilities. There may be a shift in power soon, and the all-male cabinet and presidency may be but a memory. But for now, the class is perfectly split: every boy has a position in the government, and every girl is not in the government except as a representative. And they say there is no gender tendencies 
We'll keep you all updated as we move on...
