Yeah, I cannot figure out anything right now-lol. It would not take much for Russia to push up oil prices if it wants too hurt the west. Which it may do if the neo cons keep sticking Russia in the eye with a pointed stick. I think we will start to seeing Russia really starting to cause us a lot of trouble and china and our other enemies seeing us weakened will join in. Bush's gunboat diplomacy in action. Besides being very pissed abut bush wanting to put missles in eastern europe (russia's backyeard), our support for Georgia and other vitriolic behavior by bush will prompt Russia to make a concerted effort to respond. I would expect the first thing they will do is protect and reinforce Iran which makes big trouble for Israel. Things are about to get real scary and real messy I think. This is what happens when we do not engage the world in international diplomacy and maintain good relations with the world.
