The U.S. should not get involved militarily, but something needs to be done to protect the oil tankers. Today's _Chicago Tribune_ headlined that the Saudis were getting into the shooting. Maybe the answer is to funnel more weapons to them. Perhaps the US has no business whatever getting involved in that conflict, but it's easy to argue politics and morality when the gas tank's full. -- Bob Fishell ihnp4!ihu1g!fish
