We could justifiably declare war on Saudi Arabia for waging war against us, and then seize all Saudi assets in the United States. Problem solved.
I say to ARAMCO “BRING IT”.
The proven reserves of the Bakken fields alone have more than 15X the proven and potential reserves of Saudi Arabia. And that’s not counting the Permian Basin and a number of other large proven fields in the USA.
The oil fields in the USA are owned by millions upon millions of farmers, ranchers, and small drillers. They have an opportunity to bankrupt ARAMCO and the rest of the arrogant bastards that have looked down on Americans for so long.
Make the Good Guys Rich Again.
Saudi Arabia is a terrorist nation that needs to be saving its money to pay the families that lost loved ones on 9-11-2001.

PING!
Excellent.
When the 9/11 families prove Saudi sponsorship, ARAMCO assets in the U.S. can be seized to pay them.
Petrodollar recycling at its worst.
Buying a refinery is NOT buying US oil assets.
In fact, it’s a bet on the US economy, i.e. that petroleum products such as gasoline will have healthy growth.
