Naive, no you are willfully ignoring history. Saudia Arabia withheld exports and was able to return supply as required when their political point was made. They also raised prices substantially during the 1970's. We had an option in response these actions earlier. We were very inefficient and we had areas to explore. Today we can gain some efficiency, but there are no more North Seas or Alaskas. Did I say I provided an article predicting what I said? This is a common response from you. Do you see any history of nations fighting when their economic interests are severally threatened? There is no correlation between Iraq today and high oil prices. Their is a correlation between oil prices and scarcity, oil prices and terror.
