To some degree yes, but to much less of a degree. I think one of the key reason the US has been able to risk the democratic revolutions in Egypt...
I think you’re right in that as long as relations remain the way they are the US will continue to import oil from Saudi Arabia. Correct me if I’m...
I’m with you now. Yes, it would have an impact on global oil prices. I realise that you’re primarily posing a moral question here, and I’ll get...
I'm not following what you're saying. Did you have a look at the links? Things have changed dramatically in the last decade or so. With the...
Yes* Yes, although the fact that there is a competitive market for oil means that raising your price will, to a significant extent anyway, shift...
In those two countries there was a large scale foreign intervention before any kind of wide spread popular uprising, and it didn’t work in either...
The New Pornographers would definitely be one. In terms of multiple highly critically acclaimed albums they’d be right up there in the top group....
Valid concerns. No matter what happens the army is going to be there in the end, or at least a good chunk of it. It will likely turn out that...

He may be willing to, but many of his military people are refusing to carry out his orders. They clearly haven’t completely turned on him yet,...
Women – Public Strain (My 2010 album of the year, and maybe my top album of the last few years.) Destroyer – Kaputt Next on my to-buy list:...
Who do you have in mind? I don't really think there's time to make friends at this point, other than by doing what they've done in respecting the...
Your paranoid, obsessive, racism, along with Merkel’s recent anti-immigrant comments, I think are reminding us all of Germany’s Nazi past. You’re...
I think it’s up to the army at this point. I think Mubarak is clearly finished now. The world now knows who he really is, and we now know why...
I think there’s a legitimate move the army could make at this point. They could say that they’re happy that Mubarak has decided to step down, and...
