Now, if we don't buy it and it sits idle, you have a point. Other than that, you have won a phyrric victory. I don't waste my time with phyrric victories.

Gotta win small battles to win a war.

I served my country for 8 1/2 years. Spent 2 of them in the desert. Nope I will not help those people.

True. But what battle are you even winning here? Even if we boycotted arab oil, it wouldn't do a thing if others are buying it. IOW, how can you hit them where it can hurt?

I wouldn't **** in their mouth if their teeth were on fire. However, I am not willing to cut the nose to spite the face. BTW, thanx for the service

I am indeed greatful for your gratitude. It is only a small battle I am winning and maybe very insignificant in the big sceem of things. But it makes me feel better. And I feel I am still doing my country a little better everytime I fill up. That is all my point is.
