We could take the country over and run their oil wells.... not easy, but better than having the choice of Israel being destroyed or paying 5 bucks a gallon at the pump.

Okay, Z, but now tell us how that action is any different then say a Hitler over running Poland for an example.

Countries should not be allowed to hold us hostage like this.

It seems to me we are the oil gluttons who have allowed our dependency to worsen over the years. I guess you could kill the pimp but I suspect there will be another one to take its place.

I think conquering large areas of the middle east and running them as colonies is probably not a good idea. Putting more pressure on Saudi might be, but I wouldn't escalate that pressure to the level of an invasion.
