Quote from: "Bricktop"Then you'd better start riding a bicycle.



And the bad news is that even then, you wouldn't avoid using Saudi oil based products.



Oil is used for a massive array of everyday items, such as plastics, detergents, insecticides, medical technology, tyres, hoses, and industrial equipment (as you know...your train goes nowhere without oil as well as diesel). The oil rich nations own the planet.



For now.

Canada has hundreds of barrels of oil that we can't get to Eastern Canada let alone competing with the same markets that SA supplies. SA buys off enviro groups and politicians in Canada. They know Canada could put them out of business.

Justin Trudeau wants to phase it out before it can start supplying the world..



Saudi Arabia has his blessing.

Quote from: "Bricktop"What is it about then?



The arabs despise having jews, whom they regard as less than us infidels, living in their midst. The Persians are just crazy.



The arabs want the jews gone by any and all means possible. It's a simple matter of religious intolerance.

They despise having Christians, Druze, Bahai and anything that isn't islam.

It's hard for governments in Islamic countries to be anything other than dictatorial secularists or Islamist.

That is the mistake America repeatedly makes. It assumes that their form of governance is a model for all nations, and believes that it can only be on good terms with those who govern themselves in the same manner.



Notwithstanding its many flaws that even those of us who live under democracy constantly observe, it is far from a "one size fits all" form of government.

Trump is the first president that doesn't try to impose American style government on alien cultures.

That is a big change.

That's depressing.
