Too bad the USA hasn't the guts to say to the world "The next attacks against the United States will result in the bombing of the Saudi oil fields!"

Unfortunately, this will never happen. The dems in particular don't have the testicular fortitude.

Well, destruction of Saudi oil production would cause an oil price shock pretty much guaranteed to send us back into a recession. (Remember, Oil is FUNGIBLE, what matters isn't the % of oil we get from Saudi, it's the % of the avaliable world production; the Japanese get almost all their oil from the Gulf, and they'd begin buying oil from our sources like Canada, Venezuela, etc.
