[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 4798491, member: 58386"] The driver behind our efforts to create alternatives to oil is to protect the nation and our global alliances from political blackmail and the more political options available the more successful the policy. Hitler's drive into the Balkans and the Middle East was about fuel and expanded power. The Russians needed Middle Eastern oil far less than the Europe and the West but by gaining influence through dictatorships and kingdoms favorable to Moscow gave the Kremlin political leverage. And obviously the current war is over technology and intellectual property. What evolves from that war will be the driver of international politics and policy. [/QUOTE]
