Drilling through Glass
Does anyone know if it is possible to drill for oil through a sheet of warm glass? I've googled for this and have yet to come up with any definitive source.
I think there are precedents here for eminent domain. Since we are the worlds only superpower, We take that right as self-evident. Stop testing nukes in computer simulations like geeks and wimps. Nuke all Islamic-controlled sands till they glaze over, claim the land as U.S. territory, then call out Halliburton to drill drill drill and pump pump pump. If the Russians and Chinese complain, we cut them in on the oil in a 3-way split, which makes them happy and they look the other way. If the E.U. complains, we tell them to shut up, we've had enough of their crap back in WWI and WWII. No one would want the mid-east territory for anything else, for one it's a stinking desert and for another, it'll be uninhabitable for a good while after the dust settles.
Side benefit is that we rid our arsenals of the old and decaying nuclear warheads, stock up on some new improved ones to replace them, and gasoline drops back to 80 cents a gallon where it should be and I can buy a bigger SUV and drive it more, maybe an RV to see more of this great land, do some camping, maybe some hunting or fishing.
While the middle eastern sands are still hot, outlaw Islam in the USA. Make it a crime punishable by death to believe anything but Christianity and while we're at it let's decide on only one flavor of that religion as well and make the others illegal. Pick the currently most popular flavor or the easiest to follow, doesn't really matter, and either exterminate or convert the heretics. Think of what a great superpower we could be with the mid-east oil at our disposal, and strengthened under a unified system of belief. Friends with the Russians and Chinese at last, we could and should rule the world.
Great nations have fallen because they failed to take the initiative while they still could. Remember the Spanish Armada? The great and invincible British Navy? Once powerful, now just history.
Strike now.
