If we accept that we should stop using oil because terrorists will potentially profit from our buying it, then all that is necessary for them to deny us the use of any resource is to find some way to profit from it, anywhere in the world.

Well, this is an interesting statement and true. But you have taken the agrument way to far. We don't need to quit using oil, we produce 40 percent of what we use right here. We need to quit making ourselves so dependent on Islamic nations for oil that we don't need. We need to be a little more German in our thinking and be a little more energy self sufficient. Maybe quite a bit more.
