As of today the only way a country can be energy independent is to build nuclear power plants and run their transportation on electric vehicles.

Wouldn't it be great if we could thumb our noses at all the petty tin pot dictators, and tell them to shove their oil where the sun don't shine!

Not a bad idea, until you run into the practical problem of trying to make aircraft or large trucks run on electric motors. Ships can be dealt with; they’ll just have to run on nuclear as well.
