Oil Will Only Fall So Far

'You're either with us, or against us'
This principle coined by Mussolini seems to be deeply engraved into U.S. geopolitics.
Russia went there to prevent genocide against Russian citizens. Matters of fact are:
1. Saakashvili is a CIA puppet (studied common law on State Department stipend, and common law is practiced ONLY in British colonies, present and past);
2. His 'revolution' was funded from outside (you guess by whom);
3. His country has waged war on 4 distinct ethnic groups within it's borders;
4. Russia is pissed off with gun touting in it's face by U.S. 'ally' who was propped to behave like this.
5. Russia has secured long term deals with Azerbaijan and Kazahstan to make sure there is very little gas left (at present none) for the Nabucco pipeline;
I can go on and on. Just check to see if you can find in any U.S. newspaper coverage on the latest story from the region: 2 U.S. diplomats caught in Kyrgizstan with 53 guns and 15,000 cartrages of ammonition. Maybe you only are seeded classified information.

With respect to energy policy: it seems the whole U.S. economy (and foreign policy) is planned around abundant and cheap oil: huge urban sprawls, huge SUVs, invasion of sovereign countries rich on oil, support of non-democratic governments (Saudi Arabia, Georgia). There is no easy fix to this, not smaller cars, not alternative fuels, not public transportation. What was easy though was to invade a country and further constrain oil supplies at time when everyone was pushed into SUVs and further driven into the periphery of urban areas. Your grandparents really thought they escaped feudalism from Ireland. Ask them again what they think.

And in case you are still long oil expecting the 'war' to prop it up, the BTC (1.1% global supply) has been shut down for more than a week due to a fire in Turkey. Go and blame it on the Russians, heck blame the margin calls you are getting now on the Russians as well!

'the invasion had little to do with democracy or separatists and everything to do with the so-called "BTC" pipeline (Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan) that carries oil from Azerbaijan and Caspian Sea area to the Turkish port of Ceyhan on the Mediterranean Sea.
...
Meanwhile, the markets continue to act completely insane. The Russian attack on Georgia should have lifted oil, but it didn't.'

Fitzy,
Don't ASSume, BRAINsume! The same headline was aired by Reuters as well. The next time you make statements of fact, bother at least to verify them, don't just ASSume that you can join the political propaganda bandwagon and manipulate the sheeple. You could have called British Petrol and verified the same information independently.
