If we take the current rate of consumption of crude oil by the US, and not the <em>growth</em> of consumption, and multiply that by 100 years, we get 7.2 billion barrels/year * 100 years = 720 billion barrels of oil. Iraq is said to have by the most optimistic estimate, some 250 billion barrels of oil. If this statement is true for a <em>single</em> reserve in Alaska, then what in hell are we doing in the Middle East? Why are we propping up the Saudis?</p> OK, “just one reserve in Alaska is large enough to fuel the entire US economy for over 100 years at the present rates of growth”… If we take the current rate of consumption of crude oil by the US, and not the growth of consumption, and multiply that by 100 years, we get 7.2 billion barrels/year * 100 years = 720 billion barrels of oil.

What utter nonsense (must like the Greg Palast stuff I read last night after the heads up from Dentist #1)

The most interesting bit for me is the very beginning where it says “Zionists want to abolish private ownership of land”.

Do they?!? What a fantastic idea!

Bring on Commmunity Land Trusts!
