jim black re: why not enemy #1 Saudi Arabia

...good point.

Obviously a very complex problem there.

I think it is 110% certain that we are going to War with Iraq and I believe that among the first moves will be Special Forces taking over the Iraqi Oil Fields, preventing Saddam from sabotaging them.

By taking control physically of Iraq's Oil; we now remove the Saudi's ability to retaliate by shutting of our flow of ME oil; removing the only trump card they hold - Oil supply.

I think the Saudi's day under the "screws" is coming soon. Taking control of Iraqi Oil will allows us to play hardball with them - without their having the control of the ME Oil spiggot.

Gee; it almost seems that in due time, the USA & Russia will control the pipeline route from the Caspian Sea to the West and thru China....whodathunkit ?!?
