One problem the U.S. faces abroad is that other nations perceive good Old Uncle Sam to be forked tongued ,since he denounces some governments yet supports some corrupt ones, because it may protect his own intrests. This is somewhat unfair because those countries asses that we are forced to kiss in the middle east are truly out of necessity, Its a matter of national security and the preservation of freedom. If the U.S. had to try and keep them all in check it would be in ruin with nothing to fuel the flames of capitalism that are the backbone of its existence. It truly comes down to one thing…OIL. I remember lots of people complaining back in the days of the Gulf War, bitching that it was all about Oil and nothing else. Its No secret, that war was about Oil. It’s Oil that is the lifeblood of the industrialized world that we live in. The Act of unabashedly trying to control the sources of Oil for much of the world by force is nothing short declaring war on humanity. The Gulf war was a just war but people didn’t seem to want to see that unless there was some unwholesome body count which might force the world into countless acts of guilt and regret for genreations afterwards. The Balance of Power in this region has too long been tilted away from the States and its time they takes steps to remedy this.

The instrument I propose for destabilizing the Middle East, The Peanut. Rudolf Diesel, designer of the Engine that bears his name, originally designed the diesel engine to work off peanut oil. Later, Oil was treated to the for we know as diesel because it was thought to be cheaper. In these last years we have seen that the price we paid for crude oil has been higher than originally thought, its cost us some of our freedom, much of our credibility and far too much of our ideals. It’s an easy plan, with many benefits for everyone. The U.S. would be free of the stranglehold of foreign Oil merchants. There would be so little need for change in the automotive industry as opposed to the introduction of fuel cells and hybrid engines. The emissions involved with burning peanut oil, or any Biodiesel, are so low as to be negligible. The U.S. would have a real return on subsidizing farmers because not only is peanut oil a source but soy and even used cooking grease will work with just a little treatment of ethanol or methanol which are easily available. If farmers were to use soybeans in their crop rotations the soil would be enriched with nitrogen, actually making soil better to grow food again and the soy would bring in more money while doing so. If the US were to implement this then the price of Crude in the Middle East would drop and lessen the likely hood of another Dictator in the desert making a brazen dash to strangle the world. In time, the Middle East would probably need to buy their peanut oil and soy Oil from the U.S.
