Al-Qaeda wants US oil sources hit
2007-02-14
A SAUDI wing of al-Qaeda has called for attacks on US oil sources all over the world saying targets should not be limited to the Middle East. The threat appeared on the website of the al-Qaeda organisation in the Arabian Peninsula's e-magazine, Sawt al-Jihad (Voice of Holy War), and listed Canada, Venezuela and Mexico as US oil suppliers.

"It is necessary to hit oil interests in all regions which serve the United States not just in the Middle East.

"The goal is to cut its supplies or reduce them through any means," it said.

#2  Problem is, most of the 'sources' are countries that need the money, so they have every incentive to be vigilant. An alQ hard boy getting caught trying to blow up a pipeline in Saoodi-controlled Arabia would certainly get a sword blade in the neck.

#1  I hope they blast the Venezuelan oil. Heh.

Just kidding. Venezuela's been through enough with there own little tin-pot Marxist.

These sort of attacks would drive up prices at a time when both Venezuela and Iran are being hurt by Saudi Arabia opening up the oil floodgates. Coincidence?
