re: If you mean the Gulf countries any disruption of their supply would make oil much more expensive, which would in turn make our military operations more expensive, but it wouldn't shut them down or make the military powerless/useless.

Yeah, I guess we would have a choice of moving goods (like food), going to work, or fighting wars. It's not just the Gulf, it's also Russia and Venezuela.

We are in debt to China up to our earlobes. We are paying a kings ransom to Russia, the Gulf states and Venezuela for the lifeblood of our economy. If you don't see the problem you are not paying attention.
