let's keep the natural gas in the united states. what the republicans are calling this now is the keystone export pipeline. they don't want any restrictions on the pipeline being built and the oil being sold to other countries and not to the united states. the same thing is true with how they view natural gas produced in the united states. let's just export it across the planet even though the department of energy has determined that there will be a 57% increase in the price of natural gas if we allow that to happen. and, so, their policy is essentially oil above all. not all of the above. it's whatever the oil industry wants and they want higher prices. right now the american petroleum institute does not want the reserve deployed because that will lower prices. they always opposed increased fuel economy standards because that meansless oil is consumed. they are backing policies in their tax breaks but the tax breaks for wind and solar and the competition of the 21st century being taken off the books. the president is on the right t

i don't think that the united states and western powers nor israel particularly want to intervene in syria exactly because they fear. what comes next we have a very clear understanding of what's happening on the ground. in all this because the syrian regime limits international media entrance into syria. i don't think we know what we're getting ourselves into. if we repeat. the libya scenario it's very interesting you mention that jim if i can go back to you in washington it seems to me that we could have the possibility of a partition of syria well because i think a lot of people seem to forget that seventy percent of the country is sunni and the alawite with in damascus supporting the current regime i mean there is no love lost between them either could you potentially see a partition there like this and they're selling necessarily mean it's good for anybody in the region or israel or any other country in the neighbors syria. well i think i think those are all very good concerns and questions actually if you go back and look at iraq and say two thousand and five and two thousand an
