Yours is a cogent and comprehensive summary of the situation.
In the meantime, the money flow has to stop...from the Saudis to the jihadis all over the world. That means opening up ANWAR now among other steps!
Second, we need to more loudly support the Russian government's decision to go anywhere in the world and destroy terror targets as well as another government willing to join in the worldwide struggle against terror.
Finally, no more muslims shoud be allowed to enter the US! Period! Even one here is one too many.
Well, I will disagree with you a little bit.
First of all, there are plenty of oil wells across this land that could become productive wells if it weren't for all the stupid environmental regulations. Controlling what can be pumped, where, and the relative content of what can be used, (US oil often has too much sulpher.)
The oil from the Alaska pipeline is being sold to Japan rather than being shipped here. This is stupid. The same thing would probably happen with ANWAR oil. No solution there.
I would rather save US reserves and drain foreign reserves first, which is what we are doing now, rather than the other way around.
And consider, recent research seems to indicate that petroleum is not "fossil fuels" as is commonly thought but comes from the methane deeper in the earth that makes up the mantle and continually replenishes, thus will never "run out." This changes the picture dramatically.
Finally, there hasn't been a refinery built in this country since 1976 because of Greenie NIMBY and this is much a problem as the price of crude, maybe more. Thus there is more to the picture than just Mideast oil.
(Not to mention the traitor Jimmy Carter going down to certify the socialist/communist stealing of the election in Venezuela.) Oh, but I just did, didn't I? Or the continuing corruption in Mexico. Pemex would ease a lot of this, then again, the sulfer issue again.
Second, we need to more loudly support the Russian government's decision to go anywhere in the world and destroy terror targets as well as another government willing to join in the worldwide struggle against terror.
Or they need to support us more, since this is what we are already doing.
Finally, no more muslims shoud be allowed to enter the US! Period! Even one here is one too many.
Yes, and deport all illegal aliens, and close the borders for real. They are all a threat and lower the wages and standard of living for all.
Did you see the LA article that half the adult working population in Los Angeles is illiterate? So many illegals and so many school drop outs. LA will soon be Tijuana North if this continues. A far greater danger than most realize.
