doubt oil prices will change but maybe they will give back to the people , set up better schools with more social education. Provide jobs , If they don't Saudi family will not be in power much longer. ""

John, I hate to put it so bluntly, but your too idealistic!! No body gave s--t about the Iraqi masses since the days of Nubucadnazer. What do read these days, the legend of Gilgamesh! ggg You can't sit in Coffee, Alabama and fantasise about these WOGs. What matters that we pay less for gas, and we have a strong economy, and it is us, the West that will create jobs for the masses in Iraq.
Mobil-Exxon, Chevron-Texaco, Halliburton, Bechtel, NL Group. Dresser, Penrod, and other major institutions that will go to Iraq and will provide jobs, not Iraqi government.
As for the Saudi Arabia, they have a better living standard that we have in the West, so please don't feel sorry for them.
