Politically most Arab nations would collapse if they were unable to sell oil. Most are fiscally mismanaged, particularly the Saudis with the royal family there raping that country of its oil wealth.

Is there any doubt that the countries in the middle east will continue to sell oil? It doesn't really matter who they sell to, oil is an interchangable commodity.

And instead of a president who puts a gas tax on gas and works to find viable alternatives, we have one who starts a pre emptive war.

Stupid is as stupid does!

TigerPaw, oil is fungible, however, the USA govt has concerns over the stability of the source points. Too much so in my opinion, when this country could be focused on alternative solutions.
