Contrary to what one poster suggested, this isn't really about 'stealing' anything, it is about positive, preemptive action in taking control of a strategic asset that needs to be in U.S. hands, as opposed to potential enemy hands.

It is always easy to justify taking something that doesn't belong to you and calling it a moral act. Hitler did this in Germany, Japan did it in china and the pacific, and other dictators in the past have used this same strategy. The truth is, the oil is in muslim ground, it doesn't matter who found it in the first place, it is theirs by right of ownership, if you believe in property, and you should if you are a conservative, then you must know it is their oil to do with as they will.

We have no moral or absolute right to their oil, except if we pay for it, IF they wish to sell it to us. Forcing them to sell and saying that they will be compensated is stealing, just as imminent domain is stealing. Solving our energy crisis is easy, if we have to guts to vote conservative and force the government to change the idiotic enviro laws we have been saddled with in regards to nukes, drilling for oil and other energy wasting laws. Stealing from the muslims is not a solution, and such an act would make us just what the liberals have been calling us for years.

Let’s cut to the bottom line here:

We can eliminate each and every one of those technicalities that you believe stand in the way, by declaring war on each and every Islamic nation in the region, as their religion is the basis upon which jihad was declared upon the United States, we demand their unconditional surrender, they refuse, we beat their asses like red headed stepchildren, and then their oil becomes our property as ‘spoils of war’.

End of problem.

I agree with your thoughts 100%. We should get rid of all the ridiculous regulations and environmental controls and use our own energy. We have no right to steal oil from another country, especially when we won’t even access our own.
