$32 top for oil and this is bearable. These corrupt Muslim regimes need the money a lot more than they did back in 1973. They have all kinds of dream/schemes/Jihads and militaries to finance.

NEW YORK -- Crude-oil prices fell sharply as President Bush's call on Israel to end its offensive against Palestinians and decision to send Secretary of State Colin Powell to the Middle East sparked hopes of an end to the escalating Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

On the New York Mercantile Exchange, the May crude oil futures contract dropped 98 cents to $26.58 a barrel after climbing to a six-month high of $28.35 a barrel before Mr. Bush's speech.
