This whole issue is about OIL. No-one in this gives a rats about these people or the powers to be would have gone in when ISIS was running amok in Syria.....

Yes you are. With an agenda that's so obvious.
No-one in this gives a rats about these people
Don't tell me no one here cares. That is the ONLY reason the people want to finish them. And I mean people...if corporations or government officials have other motivations...THAT, we (the people) don't care about (if we could change that we would...but in the end it's about doing what's right). Seeing those innocent people murdered, the rest trapped up in the mountains....men, women, AND children trapped....
I was happy to see an escape route created for them. How scary it must have been for them.
Not to mention....
In a sickening display of savagery, Islamic State militants paraded 250 nearly naked captured soldiers through the Syrian desert before forcing them to their knees and mercilessly gunning them down from behind.

What I don't care about is oil. I'm willing to pay 10 times what it cost for gas and oil if it means putting a stop to them and all the people like them.

Wrong again, as usual. We have spent 10 times what it would cost in oil fighting them...not to mention the loss of lives...our own citizens. We don't need their oil, we produce approx 40% of oil use right here and get MOST of it from other sources.

Yeah right...except they weren't running amok murdering hundreds...maybe thousands of people.
The only thing to make people like you see clearly will be when we get tired of hearing people like you complaining and decide to do nothing. Maybe when you find THEM on YOUR doorstep you'll change your tune.
Till then....you're just another wacko bent on complaining about the US.
Pie graph has been hurriedly C&Pd from wherever.....is out of date 2012??
From May 2012 to May of 2014 the US has imported 56,601 LESS barrels of oil per month.

Maybe I should be Thanking you and the people in your country for this....
Tony Abbot to support US bombing IRAQ isis
yes Boris. .....and as a point of fact the US is desperate to 'get' good quality oil.....the charts above show less being imported but that is because they cannot get anough.
Their home sought shale oil is FAST running out.
Current production costs have not changed significantly from the 2008 costs represented on this chart. Using the data on this chart, it is easy to see why Oil Company profits have sky-rocketed as the open market price of oil surges over $100.00 per barrel. Oil prices at $105 per barrel provide a profit approaching $65 per barrel for conventional oil sources. Every time oil speculators drive up the price of oil futures in response to world political conditions, consumers feel the pain at the oil pump.
It has already been repeated many times; the only way North American consumers are going to be protected from rising fossil fuel prices is to fully develop every possible domestic oil resource. Solar, wind and other alternative energy sources are important, but we will be dependent of fossil fuels for the foreseeable future. Until Americans get to the point that they demand of their politicians that the nation’s domestic fossil fuel resources be fully developed and utilized, the nation will be at the mercy of the World’s oil speculators.
