yes our oil and gas production is very strategically choking the saudi and dubai money. we will see how that plays out. I thot the Israeli finds were gas. where did they find oil? and yes the kurds are fighting our war for us. funny that a people with a name like kurds could be that noble.
From what I remember of history, and what I learned while stationed outside Diyarbakir, Turkey, the Kurds are what used to be called the Medes, as in the Medes and Persians. One of their folks was a guy our folks called Saladin.
