Russia, Europe and Israel will join together in a new anti-Muslim Containment strategy while the US will take care of Saudi Arabia's 30 BILLION barrels of crude oil... Interesting theory Gustave.... But I don't think the US Jewish community will take too kindly to a reshifting of long-standing US support for Israel. And the US christian communit, which provides the power base of the Republican party also would not permit a further distancing of US support for Israel in favor of some US-Saudi alliance. But we'll see what comes to pass this year. I don't suspect that Bush is going to make energy policy a major thrust of his administration this year. There may be a temporary alliance with the Gulf states, but I don't believe Cheney thinks such a continued dependence on foreign oil is in our strategic interests. Regards, Ron
