A Saudi Prince Tied to Bush Is Sounding Off-Key - New York Times

A Saudi Prince Tied to Bush Is Sounding Off-Key - New York Times

Insightful reporting and analysis of a very important relationship...the U.S. and Saudi Arabia. I think the Saudis don't much like the anti-fossil fuels initiatives around the world from their biggest customers, so they will be less cozy with the West in the future. Of course, China is always available as a customer.

We need more reporting from the American media about the geo-politics of an economy determined to be more energy efficient and using less oil. (Well, not actually less oil for a long, long time, but the rate of growth in usage by the West will be curtailed.)
