                Saudis aren't our friends. They're that annoying kid in high school that everyone wanted to hang out with because he had a car.

                            America probably could if we really had to. We've got decent reserves of our own. Also, with a proper motivation, we could greatly decrease the amount of oil we use.

                                You should tell King Abdullah that. See how long it takes before he laughs you out of his vast palatial estate of which you obviously own a fraction. Of course, Saudi Arabia is in the United Nations too, so that means what Saudi Arabia has, we have. But I wonder what would happen to Middle Easter countries if we decided to stop buying oil. You haven't been able to invest your profits into any meaningful industry... Interestingly, this is the stated goal of the Arab League:

                                "Serve the common good of all Arab countries, ensure better conditions for all
                                Arab countries, guarantee the future of all Arab countries and fulfill the hopes and
                                expectations of all Arab countries. "

                                Yeah...They're doing a GREAT job! :rolleyes:

                                          America probably could if we really had to. We've got decent reserves of our own. Also, with a proper motivation, we could greatly decrease the amount of oil we use.

                                          Didn't Clinton once say he was committed to drastically reducing the US's dependence on oil within ten years or something?
