OPEC has declared economic war on the US, attempting to put many American energy companies out of business. The Obama administration is unlikely to respond to this threat given that Obama is already on video as literally and shamelessly genuflecting to the Saudi oil sheiks.
The correct response to OPEC's act of war is to fight back even harder, making moves to put them out of business, permanently. That would involve subsidies to companies developing oil in America, increased funding of Israel's defense industry, and cutting off any defense sales to any OPEC nation and any funding to any OPEC nation or any of their subsidiaries or political pawns, like the Palestinians. Remember, it wasn't all that long ago that Iraq, under Saddam Hussein, threatened to wipe out the Saudi kingdom--and they would have succeeded if not for George H.W. Bush's intervention, costing so many American lives and the loss of billions upon billions of dollars. Just think of what the world would be like today if the US had done the right thing back then and let the Saudis get wiped out before stepping in, and if those billions and billions of dollars had been spent on helping America to become not only energy independent, but a great exporter as well.
Hopefully, one day soon, Americans will wise up and demand that their government leaders take actions to advance, support, and strengthen American businesses against American's enemies.
