@stux What might happen is regime change in the oil kingdoms. The small ones first Bahreïn Quatar and Koweït.This last one is coveted by Irak to have a nicer access to the sea. All three have despotic aristocracies, strifes and discontent within the populace.Then UAE and Saudi, which should be more resilient. I think some changes will happen from this. Hopefully in the US too.
