what if their next step is us soil. why not stop them in their tracks now while sending a message to anyone else. crimes like this will not be tolerated. this wasnt a simple car bombing or a suicide bomber. this chem thing, to me, is pretty fucking serious and can only get worse. i dont think the us should kick ass now and take names later, but we should def be involved.

That's US financial media propoganda, what is the cost of production for that oil?  In many cases, it's $100 per barrel.

If bets were taken on which state would solve the US oil dependency, North Dakota would have been 100 to 1 odds. Good old North Dakota walks in to save the day

"next step is us soil."   

What are you smoking?    Why people think these broke people that live 5000 miles away from us are a threat is beyond me, you are falling for US scare tactics. 

We must go to war in Vietnam, to stop communism from spreading to the US, do you realize you stupid that argument that was used 40 years ago sounds today?

Believe it or not, the American government doesn't give a shit about the price of oil. At least not in lowering it. The price of oil is the only thing keeping the American Dollar afloat. If the price of oil drops or the American Dollar is no longer the currency used to valuate the price of crude oil, then the dollar is suddenly on par with the Lyra and the Peso. Because you see since the gold standard was destroyed, the International trading committees had to install a new way to valuate world currency based on the dollar. That new installation is OPEC oil. The American government will go to any lengths necessary to ensure that doesn't happen.

This all stems from Syria threatening to take its oil and sell it to China and Russia instead of America. With such high stakes, it's impossible to know which side to believe.

Syria accounts for 1% of world oil production. It is a significant player in the oil trade, but only just.

Also, I could be wrong about this as I don't live in the middle east, but I do try to follow the news pretty closely and I get the impression the current Syrian civil war was initiated when a brutal, neverending "crackdown" on peaceful protesters galvanized, united and finally radicalized the country's disparate opposition parties. This isn't about oil, but the small role Syria plays in world oil production might account for the indolent reaction from neighboring, much better-armed liberal democracies.

The one thing I never understood about oil. Canada could easily suupply the entire US oil demand for decades, which would give time for the US to develop it's own production. I have no idea why it hasn't been done yet and I wonder why the US still buys its oil from everywhere else. Obama refuses to build the Keystone pipeline, why???

I would have supported the Iraq invasion if it was better timed. It should have come sooner; hell, G. H. W. Bush should have ousted Saddam in 1991. Yes, I think we should jump right in and fight. Stability in the middle east is crucial to US economic and diplomatic interests and it is only consistent with our values as a nation to defend liberty and democracy against tyrants.
