The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) is made up of Algeria, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Venezuela; since 1965, its international headquarters have been in Vienna, Austria. The organization's purpose is to negotiate with oil companies on matters of petroleum production, prices, and future concession rights..
"Made up of Algeria, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Venezuela; since 1965."

Atleast Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates has a pro-US government for the very start just from the top of my head. And for Iraq, it definately will be pro-US too, and Iraq IS controlled by the Coalition force right now, with US as the leader....

"The organization's purpose is to negotiate with oil companies"

US as a very large proportion of OPEC's members on her side, and you bet the American oil companies are a 'giant' which of course also must follow the US government's orders.

Under all these factors, the US pretty much has enough "strings" attached to OPEC to have things in her favor.

Saudi Arabia is friendly with the US, and also produces 24% of the world's oil, so why is the US needing another friendly nation?

Like you said, it's only 24% of world's oil supply.
Although Saudi Arabia is pro-US, its not like they're selling oil for free to the US either. Having more 'allied' oil producing countries will always be better.

Those names are arabic/muslim. People with those names may be Australian, however.

I am negligible bacause I support the resistance of occupation...is that right?
hahahaha no because you don't know the difference between what's appropriate and what's not. Choose a better av pic if you're opposing the resistance. It looks like you're supporting terrorism. And if that's intention, then yes, you're negligible.

And yes, close this thread. The discussion on London Explosion ended....many many pages back.
