Explanation:

OPEC stands for Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. It is a multinational organisation which was established to prevent the oil producing nations from lowering the price of oil. Its headquarters was located in Geneva and later moved to Vienna in 1965. It was established after a conference held in Baghdad on 10-14 September, 1960. The initial members were Iraq, Iran, Kuwait and Venezuela.

Their main goal was to secure control over their petroleum resources, hence they nationalised their oil reserves and changed the contracts with  major oil companies and ultimately in 1970 raised oil prices by 70 percent.

In 1970, due to Yom-Kippur war the Arab oil nations declared embargo on supplying the oil to US and Netherlands because they supported Israel, the embargo caused oil crisis in the west.

so they can differentiate themselves from others as they saw themselves as the superior race. the star was basically a symbol that meant you are a less of a person than i am because of my race. the star was also degrading for those who had to wear it because they were aware of this and the nazis used the notion to make them feel less like a person.
