The rationale behind the Energy Victory proposal is a bit broader than just breaking our dependence on the Saudis. You can find links to both right wing and left wing reviews here: http://instapundit.com/archives2/013575.php Another review is at: http://www.fourmilab.ch/fourmilog/archives/2007-12/000936.html The proposal requires government legislative force, but otherwise it sounds reasonable. Perhaps there's a non-forceful way to achieve the objectives.
_____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of wesjcarr Sent: Sunday, January 06, 2008 4:24 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [marketliberal] energy victory Robert Zubrin, who wrote The Case For Mars has a new book out called Energy Victory: Winning The War On Terror By Breaking Our Dependence On Foreign Oil. His main point is that by funding the Saudis through oil sales they in turn fund terror groups using our own money against us and holding us hostage by oil prices. By transitioning to flex-fuel cars, rather than hydrogen we can start to free ourselves from this trap. <http://geo.yahoo.com/serv?s=97359714/grpId=11708624/grpspId=1705060169/msgI d=2554/stime=1199639556/nc1=3848627/nc2=4836043/nc3=4776366>
