He feels the Saudi's and the OPEC gang bangers are stabbing the US in the back with the cost of oil given the US have protected them for the last 60 years or so.

A few holes here and there in his reasoning though...
do you think U.S. will invade some of the other countries in middle east if the oil situation gets even tighter? since Israel is looking to take out Iran with or without U.S.'s help, plus Israel has around 150 nukes, do you think U.S. will help them (in my opinion they will) conquer and destroy some of those other nations who Israel feels are a threat to them?
Iraq has the third largest proven oil resources in the world.  Mission accomplished.

The problem is getting it out of the ground and supplying it.  Trying to saturate the oil markets and therefore reducing the price of barrel of oil would be the number one goal.  However, oil pipelines are easy to blow up and folks from the middle east are not big fans of the Americans.  You have an uphill battle.

Dubai gets less than 6% of its economic activity from oil.

Idiots.

You mean they're obliged to sell you oil at 1c a barrel? Why of course makes perfect business sense.

Oh and YOU'RE FIRED.
If Saudi Arabia is a great friend to the USA we should get a deal is all I am saying, since we have only had their ass covered for the last 60 or so years! So you think we shouldn't be getting a better deal than let's say China, who could have given a fuck about them until they needed something from them!?! Yeah sounds fair. How about remembering who has your back.
Saudi doesn't hold a monopoly over oil. Oil is a commodity and its price fluctuatates due of many reasons, the 2 main culprits being to geopolitics and speculation.  Saudi has zero control over these 2 factors.

The world of oil is big business my friend with lots of little nasty people screwing the world over to make a fast buck.
Ever heard of supply and demand? Demand has risen drastically, but has supply?
