> the Zionist lobby has successfully blocked the major oil companies

Now this is loopy. The Zionist lobby is more powerful than Big Oil? The Republican party is practically a subsidiary of the energy industry, and it's fiercely pro-Israel. Cheney, the former CEO of Halliburton, is more loyal to Israel than his former employers (who did, as I recall, invest in Iran)? It's hard to take anything seriously from this guy after reading a sentence like that.
