Haha, that mentality is a product of post 9/11 public awareness. Lots of
vague coverage on countries and issues that no one cared about until a small minority of people decided to declare a war on western ideals.
Now Muslim is middle east, and middle east is bad.
After further reading, I have learned that Northern Africa is considered to be part of the "Middle East"
Speaking about the price of oil, recently a report revealed (I think from wikileaks) that Saudi Arabia has been overstating its reserves and production capacity for years.
The recent and more accurate information leads us to believe they may in fact be on the cusp of peak production, and it daily production capacity will be on the decline shortly. This is all contrary to what the Aramco would want us to believe.
