Here we go again. Good old U.S. mentality - take it for granted that U.S laws apply to other soverign countries. The U.S.A. is not a world government with others vasal states!
Then the question is asked "Why do they hate us?" The audacity to even propose such an ignorant bill is the mentality that needs to be addressed in perceptions about the rest of the world.

Yes the oil sheiks are holding the world to ransom. Try $10 per gallon as in the U.K. at present, but what we have to look at is who is profiting from trading oils and energy shares.
I think we will find that the muscle behind the OPEC are shares dealers and owners sitting in NY. DC. Brussels and London. The problem lies a lot closer to home than we think!
