in response to reader comment: What governments cannot do, people can

Prashant, you want to saction ME oil. Who want to see the fall of Saudi regime, Who want to see despots of kuwait and bahrain thrown away. Even though eighteen 9/11, high jackers came from Saudi arabia, Iraq was chosen to bomb. Do you really want freedom in these countries. Are the experience with north africa encouraging? Morbid hate for a large section of people will not be very helpful. Americans have recently learned this from Iraq and Afganistan. Some times common sense can be very useful.
