KLARE PAINTS A TERRIFYING PICTURE OF U.S. DISDAIN FOR THE REST OF THE WORLD’ EVENING STANDARD
Since September 11th, 2001, and the start of the ‘war on terror’, the Us government has repeatedly denied any link between foreign policy in the Middle East and the oceans of crude oil that lie beneath the region’s soil.
At the same time, the US’s domestic oil reserves are running dry, leaving it dependent on foreign supplies. Those supplies lie in chronically unstable, often violently anti-America areas like the Persian Gulf, the Caspian Sea, Latin America and Africa where military involvement will be requeried to ensure the flow of oil.
In Blood and Oil, Michael Klare exposes the truth about American foreign policy and the US dependence on oil from abroad, and how, if a change in energy policy is not made soon, the whole world will be paying for America’s oil in blood.
