Like what power does she believe she would have to do that shy of an all out war?

Though highly unlikely to ever come to pass, IF we appeared serious in warning the OPEC countries that we would pull all of our military protection umbrella as well as cut off all aid as well as freezing sales of arms, that might just get the Saudis' attention, who after all, are the most powerful member country.

Of course, we broke OPEC stranglehold back in the 70's and could do it again if it weren't for the EnviroNuts and their willing stooges in Congress.

And we broke it by building the Alaska pipeline. Pass new legislation to drill in Anwar and let’s see what happens!
