DUBAI (Reuters) - A Saudi wing of al Qaeda called for attacks on U.S. oil sources
around the world, saying targets should not be limited to the Middle East and listing
Canada, Venezuela and Mexico as U.S. oil suppliers.

The threat appeared in the al Qaeda Organization in the Arabian Peninsula's e-magazine,
Sawt al-Jihad (Voice of Holy War), which was posted on a Web site used by Islamist
militants.

"It is necessary to hit oil interests in all regions which serve the United States not just
in the Middle East. The goal is to cut its supplies or reduce them through any means,"
it said.

The group was behind the February 2006 failed suicide attack on the world's largest oil
processing plant in Saudi Arabia in which officials said two tonnes of explosives were
used.

1. Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm, wouldn't that make China and Russia just as

threatened and damaged as this country? A little myopic in planning, IMO.

2. Whoops, that invasion of Saudi Arabia should be a happenin'

any day now, shouldn't it?

3. When do we invade Saudi Arabia? Why aren't they on the 'hit' list since

they're harboring 'terrorists'?
