How Iran Has Bush Over a Barrel »
Posted By expursuit 4 months ago in Business & FinanceIf wasn't clear before it should be now: the Bush Administration can't afford to attack Iran. With gas already at $4 a gallon and rising almost every day, Iran figuratively and literally has the United States over a barrel. As much as the Administration is tempted, it is not about to test Iran's promise to "explode" the Middle East if it

"The Iranians haven't been shy about making clear what's at stake. If the U.S. or Israel so much as drops a bomb on one of its reactors or its military training camps, Iran will shut down Gulf oil exports by launching a barrage of Chinese Silkworm missiles on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and Arab oil facilities. In the worst case scenario, seventeen million barrels of oil would come off world markets."
This might be a good reason to convince the Democrat(ic)s to allow drilling in the US. Particularly in northern Alaska, Gulf of Mexico and in all areas along the coasts. It is not only Oil it is natural gas that is rising as well. It is time for the majority of the Democrat(ic)s to part from the Iranian position of holding the U.S. over a barrel.

Why do you think drilling in ANWR would eliminate the U.S. dependency on foreign fuels?
http://pubs.usgs.gov/fs/fs-0028-01/fs-0028-01.htm
http://www.doi.gov/news/030312.htm
A Dept of Interior study projected that ANWR could produce a mere 1.4 million barrels of oil per day, which would increase U.S. production by ~25%.
http://www.eia.doe.gov/neic/quickfacts/quickoil...
However, that is still insufficient to wean the U.S. from 10.1 million barrels per day which the U.S. must import from other countries, including the 5.6 million barrels per day we import from OPEC.
Even if we started drilling in ANWR today, we wouldn't see a drop of that oil for 10-20 years, which is how long it'd take for the infrastructure to be built. By then, increasing demand from China and India would offset the increase in supply.

Why do you assume that this would be the only supply being added to the global supply. Would adding 1.4 million barrals from ANWR, and tapping into the known reserves in the Gulf Of Mexico as China is doing now impact the price of oil? Of course it would.
I think ANWR's 10% is a significant amount.
As far as OPEC adjusting their output. Western North Dakota has large oil reserves. By some estimates, it has more oil than the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. A federal government geologist estimated a formation called the Bakken shale holds 400 billion barrels of oil.
175 miles off the coast of Louisiana the oil industry estimates it will be able to recover more than 3 billion barrels, and perhaps as much as 15 billion barrels, of oil from a geological area known as the lower tertiary trend, making it the biggest addition to U.S. petroleum reserves in decades.
Why are you opposed to additional supplies on the market?

When are you going to start factoring in global pollution from CO2 burning of fossil fuels in your equations. Always, there is talk of increasing production, yet never a factor of what increasing burning of fossil fuels will do the the worlds climate.
Even Exon has discontinued financing of anti-global warming propaganda. McBush has stated global warming is a massive problem.
Why not concentrate on burning LESS fuel, by means of massive restructuring of transportation.
Oil is a national security issue. We should nationalise all US oil.

America consumes 25% of all oil, yet consisits of 5% of the worlds population. This is insane. This will not continue. China is rising, India is rising, they both have the bomb.
Drilling more oil is NOT an option. We must preserve the earth for future generations by not killing it with CO2 from fossil fuel burning.
Inceasing production without factoring in how that also increases CO2 production, is completely irresponsible.

CAPECORALM:
"I think ANWR's 10% is a significant amount."
You would think wrong. The combined oil in ANWR, the Dakotas, and the Gulf of Mexico is NOT enough to compensate for the over 10 million barrels per day the U.S. imports and not enough to achieve energy independence.
You seem to be forgetting that:
1) U.S. oil consumption is growing and it would take 10-15 years to develop the infrastructure to mine ANWR. By that time, rising U.S. oil consumption would far outpace additional oil output ANWR.
2) Demand from emerging economies, particularly China and India, is growing exponentially and will outpace the modest rise in oil output from ANWR, the Dakotas, and Gulf of Mexico.
3) Due to the weak dollar, oil companies actually make more profit by selling oil to Europe and its strong Euro. Increased oil production would not necessarily make it to the U.S.; it would go to the highest bidder.

But you forget Canada, and as it is right now we supply 23% of your oil, but can do no more due to the fact that the pipelines are full, can,t get it to you unless by truck and with fuel costs that leaves rail.
But by 2011 we are supposed to be able to triple our out put to you with the new pipe lines under construction, also there is much talk of a line from Alaska to Chicago so I do believe if that happens we can theoretically supply you with 60% of your oil.

4) You continue to ignore the posts below which demonstrates that the current rise in oil prices is NOT being driven by a lack of supply, but rather by the weak US dollar. Therefore, pumping even more oil into the market will have little effect on the prices because that's not what's driving high prices in the first place.
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0608/10940...
"The immediate cause of rising oil prices is the weak dollar. Oil-producing countries are requiring more dollars to purchase the same barrel of oil because the dollar is worth less today than it was a few years ago. Center for American Progress estimates that 'nearly 40% of the increased price American consumers are paying for oil is attributable to the weak dollar," even after factoring in the effects of increased global demand from countries such as China.'"

Absolutely correct, pumping more oil will not help and will have little effect. Think of the day the world is going to say no to the dollar based dealings, where would the dollar go and the oil price will go. It is the 8 years of George Bush's foreign policy that brought the dollars demise. More countries are going to trade in Euros. they want to bomb Iran because they refuse sell their oil in US dollars. It seems that American economy depends on blackmailing countries to do business in dollars. It's a sign of economic collapse.

"If Man Made CO2 is the cause of Global Warming answer me one question - Why are all the other planets in our solar system following the SAME warming trend as Earth ?"
If you don't believe in the IR-absorbing properties of CO2, then do yourself a favor: Visit your local university and take an infrared spectroscopic measurement of a sample of pure CO2. The carbonyl bond happens to be one of the most strongly-absorbing IR moieties, and the CO2 molecule has TWO of them.

What is unknown?
QUANTIFIABLE FACT: CO2 molecules absorbs heat as IR radiation.
QUANTIFIABLE FACT: Hydrocarbon combustion increases atmospheric CO2 concentrations.
Therefore, it follows that CO2 released into the atmosphere from hydrocarbon combustion is absorbing heat as terrestrial IR and preventing it from being released into space.
The only thing scientists are debating is how quickly this warming is happening, but very few (if any) dispute that such warming is actually occurring.

Isn't it interesting that every time someone mentions drilling along out three coasts, as well as land mass, as well as ANWR; the left on this site only talks about ANWR? Do you not realize that ANWR is only a small portion of the available oil? ANWR will take five years to drill and see results, however in the meantime, drilling in 'other' oil rich areas would have an almost immediate return and increase the supply, thus reducing the cost much faster.

Until we can figure out how to make all the varieties of other things that are produced using oil we will not be weaned off it, reduction in dependency is all that we can expect to accomplish.
What we need is a brilliant mind that can figure out an energy source that will provide cheap, abundant means of locomotion and illumination. Other than that , good luck on doing away with oil altogether.

slate- The comment I made was not meant to say that we are any different than you when it comes to the use of energy, and on a per capita basis we likely use more. My comment had to do with the artical, where from my reading has your country hostage because of your need to import oil, if your country does not wish to be hostage then the change must come from within your country either by drilling for more or using less, to me the best solution is to use less.

Oil in ANWR would have done little to change oil prices, as OPEC would simply readjust their output to offset the relatively small in increase in domestic oil extracted from ANWR.
Besides, the currently inflated global oil prices have more to do with the falling dollar, futures trading, and Middle East instability, than with oil in ANWR.
http://moneycentral.msn.com/content/P100650.asp
"Every dollar increase in the price of a barrel of imported oil increases the size of the U.S. trade deficit, which puts more pressure on the value of the U.S. dollar, which leads to a weaker dollar, which makes OPEC countries want to raise the dollar-denominated price of a barrel of oil to make up for the dollars fall, and so on."

The Energy and Information Administration concluded in a 2007 survey that drilling in the Pacific, Atlantic, and Gulf regions wouldn't have an impact on prices until 2030, if they had an impact at all.
http://www.eia.doe.gov/oiaf/aeo/otheranalysis/o...
"The projections in the OCS (Outer Continental Shelf) access case indicate that access to the Pacific, Atlantic, and eastern Gulf regions would not have a significant impact on domestic crude oil and natural gas production or prices before 2030.
Because oil prices are determined on the international market, however, any impact on average wellhead prices is expected to be insignificant."

"McCain has spent the week focusing on energy policy, making some surprising, and inaccurate, statements.
McCain tried to paint Obama as an opponent of nuclear power, yet Obama has said he is open to nuclear energy and has supported bills that contained nuclear subsidies.
McCain has soft-pedaled the cap-and-trade proposal for greenhouse gases, even denying that it would be a mandate. The cap is a mandatory limit, however, and McCain even says so on his Web site.
McCain's new ad, running this week, rightly says that he bucked his party in supporting action on climate change years ago. But its images of windmills and solar panels are misleading in that he supports subsidies for nuclear power, which isn't pictured, and opposes them for wind and solar energy.
McCain continues to say that a suspension of the federal gas tax will lower prices for consumers, though hundreds of economists say he is wrong."

It is not going to end there, Israel will get what it deserves, it's long overdue and also American presence in Iraq will come to an abrupt end. That's not all this war will continue for another decade or more until America is completely, humiliated, defeated and bankrupt. If America or Israel attacks Iran and then everything is not going to come to end as in Hollywood movies like Batman, Spider man, Iron man, Superman and Wonder woman.

When push comes to shove, tiny little Israel has always come out on top, and if threatened they may well use more than a few bombs. If I were those that hate Israel but love life and their children, I'd try and figure out a way to peace and let Israel have the tiny country that's not any bigger than Harris County, Texas.

The only current holocaust is the one to which christians and moslems in palestine are subjected by zionists (not jews).
In Clear Sight of Yad Vashem
Over the years, our attention has been drawn to the close proximity of the village of Deir Yassin to the Jewish Holocaust memorial at Yad Vashem. Jews have been encouraged to visit Deir Yassin, the symbolic starting point of nearly six decades of Palestinian dispossession, and from there to look across to Yad Vashem....
...A brutal ethnic cleansing accompanied by dispossession, pillage and massacre... terms surely familiar to any Palestinian.
But no matter how similar the Jewish and Palestinian histories of suffering may seem, the similarities conceal important differences:

First, by all accounts, and according to any version of the events, what was done to the Jews of Europe took place a long distance from Yad Vashem, while what was done to the Palestinian people took place right there at the village of Deir Yassin and right there throughout the whole of Palestine.
Second, the perpetrators of the atrocity against Jews had nothing to do with Palestine or Palestinians, while perpetrators of the Palestinian tragedy were and are Jews.
Third, the perpetrators of the atrocity against Jews have been roundly condemned over the years and punished for their crimes, and have mostly shown contrition, while the perpetrators of the massacre at Deir Yassin have been honored for their crimes, continue to take pride in them, and live on in their ideology and in their deeds.

Fourth, what befell the Jews had a beginning, a middle, and an end, while the assault on the Palestinians goes on with no end in sight.
And one final difference: If the living evidence for the veracity of the Holocaust narrative is a safe, secure and empowered Jewish people, at home wherever they may be, the living evidence for the veracity of Deir Yassin and the Nakba is a Palestinian people dispossessed and exiled and longing to go home.

Daylight is a Sunni, and I saw the friction between a Shiite and a Sunni in this exchange, I saw it with Sunni muhairi8 also. Being so the case, if YOU are the type of Muslim who is proud that Islam is the "fastest growing religion in the world", apparently, that Islam is not YOUR brand of Islam. THAT brand of Islam is SUNNI, NOT Shia. But, right now, you include them both to try to strike fear in the infidel, knowing, deep down, that YOU are the minority IF you are a Shiite, and, that minority is threatened in a violent way, as witnessed with the Sunnis so hateful as to strap on bombs to retarded women and blowing up YOUR innocents in Iraqi pet stores.

Yes most of the Jews except the Zionists are against the creation of Israel and even the Rabbis are against the Atheist Israel. Jews, Christians and Muslims lived like brothers before 1948, the Zionists have destroyed it and keep lying through their media about the excellent relationship the Jews and Muslims had.
And there are, certainly, among the People of the Book [Jews and Christians], those who believe in God, in the revelation to you, and in the revelation to them, bowing in humility to God: They will not sell the Signs of God for a miserable gain!

If the brother-in-law fell from the roof and his sexual organ entered the sexual organ of his sister-in-law, who happened to be lying on the ground with her legs spread, is he now considered to be married to her? What is the rule for one who has homosexual relations with only partial penetration?

By the way, have I EVER brought up the Muhammad marrying a 6 year old until now?

By the way, wasntme. Is it true that there are "weak and inferior Hadiths"? Your friend, Muhairi8, said so. I learned this when I presented him with "one hour of deep contemplation is better than 60 years of worship", and, "the rank of a man who is silent is worth more than 60 years of worship".

I can tell when a Muti is enlightened when he ignores the contents of Talmud and goes right to his LIES. Since you enjoyed my Talmud quote, then lets read more from Talmud,
"A girl of three years and a day is sanctified (as a woman is acquired) through intercourseâ;¦if one of those forbidden to have relations with her according to the Torah does have relations with her, he is killed because of her, and she is exempt.If she is less than that (less than three years and a day),it is as one who sticks a finger into an eye"(Niddah 5:4)."
more ...
"The sages of the Talmud explain the Mishnah's simile "as one who sticks a finger into an eye": Just as an eye, if poked by a finger, gives off a tear and then once again gives off tears, so is it when a man puts his penis in a girl younger than three, her hymen tears and then heals over. This is why it is not called intercourse in matters of prohibition or of acquisition (Niddah 45a)."

Talmud and oral sex. forbidden or permitted?hahahahahhaha
The sages and the Halachic arbiters disagree about oral sex.
Rabbi Yochanan the son of Dahabai said: Four things did the ministering angels tell me.
1. The child of one who has a n a l sex with his wife will be lame. (Bush is a lame now !!)
2. The child of one who has a n a l sex will be mute.(dont worry mute is not the same as Muti)
3. The child of one who speaks crudely during sex will be deaf.
4. The child of one who looks at his wife's sexual organs will be blind.
But according to the Sages....A parable; Meat which comes from the abattoir may be eaten salted, roasted, cooked, or boiled" (Nedarim 20a-b).
...stick around kid..more education about your LORD and his sages is on the way

Doesn't the Talmud say Jesus was a bastard from a ****** who only had six followers and was stoned to death? Of course, IF I said I was a Martian, you would, no doubt, try to attack Martians by talking about HG Wells and "Angry Red Planet" stuff. It's very Muslim to attack people's religions as away to deflect from the evil that is Islam. By the way, I USE to be a Mormon. IF I was still a Mormon, you would, no doubt, be talking about how Joseph Smith was a lying fraud and how stupid Mormonism is. But, go ahead and attack ANY religion I may or may not be in. The fact of the matter is, you are in great mental anguish and hate toward those who are free to NOT put there butt up in the air five times a day, EVERY day, for the rest of their life, or, be burned in hell. Again, I feel your pain. Well, I THINK I do, because, gad, I'd sure hate to be under such religious oppression. You poor guy Sunnis think lies and believes "weak and inferior" hadiths.

For anyone interested, I discovered yesterday that there is a good Hadith, that the Sunnis follow, and a BAD Hadith that the Shiites follow. Of course,
I got this news from one who claims to be a Sunni. This "Sunni" seems to spend every waking hour doing "Jihad of the Pen" on a certain website, and, I
presented him something from, apparently, a Hadith that was the bad, SHIITE Hadith that got him raging and insulting of me. The question I have, is, ARE
there two Hadiths that Sunnis and Shiites are in disagreement with? IF I were a Sunni engaged in "Jihad of the Pen", I think I'd have to believe that the
scripture I presented him WAS from a BAD Hadith, because it goes as follows: "The rank of a silent man is better than 60 years of Divine service".

Stupid and Liar, I didn't say that there is good Hadiths that Sunni follow and Bad Hadiths that Shiite follow you said:
"Hey, muhairi8. IF you are getting tired of sitting at your computer every day, and would like to stretch and go outside instead of constantly doing
"Jihad of the Pen", how about THIS to free you:
"The rank of a man of silence is better than divine service for sixty years."
-The Prophet Muhammad (SAW), as reported by 'Imran bin Hussain"
So i answered that Imran bin Hussain is a shiite and I'm a sunni and this is not a true hadith i should have said that it is a weak one or Fabricated one
and i sent to you this:

As I said I can tell when a Muti is enlightened. How? You fail to address the content of the links I provide you and instead try your childish game at trying to pit Sunnis against Shias. Beasts bigger than you and smarter than you have tried that path already and have failed.
I am not attacking your religion I am only posting from this book that your buddies ,Jewish Taliban and Jewish extremists think of as word of God, I am only quoting from that book word by word and you should thank for me that. Is that considered attacking your religion? I am not attacking anything I am only quoting from the WORD OF GOD. I am puzzled that you are not trying to help me understand these none sense in that book of horror.I am giving you an opportunity to make a convert of me. Unlike you I keep an open mind . This is a golden opportunity for you.

As for hatred, I think you are consumed by hatred. This post you made lil while ago tells it all. It shows the level of hatred that burning hatred that keeps burning you.
"I think the road to peace isn't through Iraq, Iran nor any other place. The road to peace is through the Kabah... obliterated and defiled with the remains and poop of pigs dropped from stealth bombers after cruise missiles have done their work."
As I said you stick around and I will educate you about Talmud, book of horror.
What does talmud think about WOMEN? not a very nice subject to bring up in Talmudic world but let give it a try.
""Woman is a sack of excrement and her mouth is full of blood, but all run after her" (Shabbat 152a). "
once again your attempts at starting Sunni Shia strife is a very childish one. As it is I (Shia)am in talks with a very religious Sunni Muslim woman hopefully will end up in marriage someday...... to disappoint you...

I stick by my theory that the end of the war on terror is through the destruction and defilement of the Kabah (Allah's House). TELL me why that wouldn't end the war on terror, please? By the way, ONE...MORE...TIME, HOW does the evil of ONE religious group (the Talmud following Jews, in this case), justify the evil of YOUR religion? By the way, may you be successful with marriage to a Sunni woman. May the both of you find happiness and bliss together. And may you truly LOVE this woman and not perform an "honor killing" to protect YOUR friggen "honor" if some evil bastard rapes her. May you truly love this human being even IF such a horrible thing were to happen, letting her know that you are there to heal and still find her beautiful and valuable no matter what. Islam supposedly doesn't allow for Honor Killings, but, sure in hell is an accomplice to it.
