Oh we don't need Middle East oil, that just made me choke on my coffee..You know at the high level, whether U know it or not, the Middle East countries who belong to the GCC gulf countries council have their nuts rubbed by American officials every single day, you just don't see it because your or we are at the peasant level..If the GCC cut off selling their oil to the U.S, we would be in deep crap over night...Actually, that would be a very smart move on their part since they really don't need us..We need them..This my friend is a FACT..And why is this all happening? because of a fake country called ISRAEL..Arabs love Americans but because of ISRAEL, they hate us...
