I dont believe a word of it, the U.S will never sieze their oil fields. This sounds too good to be true.

Well, we can always dream. :-)

Never is a long time. If it looks like our economy is going to grind to a halt you can bet we will. We aren't going to just sit here with a bunch of non-moving automobiles and no US politician is going to let us stand in gasoline lines for more than a month or two just because the Saudis think we should. Liberal philosophy is less important than liberal reelection.

We're not going to seize the oilfields for any minor reason, but I'm fairly confident that we would when the cars are sitting on the side of the interstate. Even the Democrats don't feel like running for re-election when the voters have to walk to the polls.
