I agree, the proper way to deal with the terrorism issue is to disengage from that volatile part of the world, which means kicking our oil habit. I seem to remember a time when there was no arab terrorist problem in America when I was growing up in the 1970s and 1980s. Then, in the 1990s we started putting troops in the region and fought a war with Iraq and put harsh sanctions on Iraq; and suddenly we have arabs attacking us. There is definitely a connection. We get out of their business and they will get out of ours.

The high road to take would be to do whatever is necessary to develop an economy that uses home grown renewable energy that does not have to be purchased from the Middle East. That would do more to alleviate our terrorist problem than any military approach.

BTW, the port deal sounds like it is off.
