Why Send Money to People Who are Trying to KILL You?

[tzalam2]

Gas rationing in the 80's worked even though we grumbled about it.
It might even be good for us! The Saudis are boycotting American goods. We should return the favor. An interesting thought is to boycott their gas.
Here are some companies that do not import Middle Eastern Oil:

Citgo.....0 barrels
Sunoco...0 barrels
Conoco...0 barrels
Sinclair....0 barrels
BP/Phillips..0 barrels
Hess.....0 barrels
ARCO.....0 barrels

Every time you fill up the car, you can avoid putting more money into the
coffers of Saudi Arabia! Just buy from gas companies that don't import
their oil from the Saudis.

Nothing is more frustrating then the feeling that every time I fill-up the
tank, I am sending my money to people who are trying to kill me, my family,
and my friends. I thought it might be interesting for you to know which oil
companies are the best to buy gas from, and which major companies import
Middle Eastern Oil:

Shell.........205,742,000 barrels
Chevron/Texaco......144,332,000 barrels
Exxon/Mobile.......130,082,000 barrels
Marathon/Speedway...117,740,000 barrels
Amoco.........62,231,000 barrels

If you do the math at $30/barrel, these imports amount to over $18 BILLION!

Here are some companies that do not import Middle Eastern Oil:

Citgo.....0 barrels
Sunoco...0 barrels
Conoco...0 barrels
Sinclair....0 barrels
BP/Phillips..0 barrels
Hess.....0 barrels
ARCO.....0 barrels

All this information is available from the Department of Energy and each is
required to state where they get their oil and how much they are importing.
But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of gas buyers.

It's really simple to do.

Now, don't wimp out at this point.keep reading and I'll explain
how simple it is to reach millions of people!!

I'm sending this note to about 30 people. If each of you send it
to at least ten more (30 x 10=3D 300).and those 300 send it to
at least ten more (300 x 10= 3D 3,000).and so on, by the time
the message reaches the sixth generation of people, we will
have reached over THREE MILLION consumers! If those three
million get excited and pass this on to ten friends each, then
30 million people will have been contacted!If it goes one level
further, you guessed it.THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!!
Again, all you have to do is send this to 10 people.

How long would all that take?

If each of us send this e-mail out to ten more people within one
day, all 300 million people could conceivable be contacted
within the next eight days.

You might as well stop patronising the 7-11's as well. Most of those have camels parked out front.

Any reason you're posting the exact same tripe in multiple forums?

Now, to me, it seems unfair to supply money to this kind of nation. So, we could make it fair. I don't see Saudi Arabia changing its ways. So, for the terrorists it harbors against the U.S. and the boycotting or other hating of the U.S. it does, why doesn't the U.S. just take the oil? They will just keep hating us regardless of the amount of oil we buy from them. Let's just take it. Gas prices will go way down, and we will have eliminated a terroristic, anti-U.S. nation.

And we'll also have started WWIII with the Muslims in this world. Great idea, let's do it.

Better to be feared than seen as weak?


Its better to be seen as weak than cause injustice. As Gandhi said, 'true strength comes not through physical ability but through an indominatable will'

I'm not sure about these numbers:

BP/Phillips..0 barrels

Amoco.........62,231,000 barrels

Since Amoco is now owned by BP, where is Amoco now getting it's crude? If it is still getting it's crude from the Middle East, or OPEC, doesn't it change BP's numbers?

Closed minded bigoted statements such as this disgusts Christ!
