Even though I can easily agree with you on that (oil for US consumption
which is not from the GoM or Alaska comes primarily either from Venezuela or
West African countries), I think I must point out one does not need to *use*
the oil to benefit from it. We both know that the majority of the companies
who exploit the oil in the Arabian Region are american-controlled, and that
they generate a lot of profit from the drilling activity...
So yes, you are right in what you said *as you said it*. Just please don't
claim in the future that the oil from the Persian Gulf does not benefit the
US in any way - you haven't *said it*, but it can be implied from your
passionate rufuse of iraqui oil consumption by the US. Or am I 100% wrong? :-)
