Last week, I had the honour order to give a talk and contribute to a seminar of the United States air force command and staff college (ACSC) at Maxwell Air Force Base Bmontgomri Alabama on energy security. ACSC trains field – grade officers, majors in General, not just a narrow skills of the Warrior, but also the broader skills of foreign policy, economics. Attached a copy of the presentation I used material that offers the following conclusions.
There are no viable economic alternatives for the oil transportation today. There may be one day, but as Aragorn said rings "that today is that day." As a result, crippled the u.s. economy by attempting to eliminate the imported oil real, Rob us of our social and economic mobility. The u.s. economy is deeply integrated with the global economy. Always we were a nation of trading, and our economy cannot survive without a secure international trading system. In the United States has a strategic interest in the world secure and these responsibilities will not change if we can stop the import of oil. Do we really will allow Iran or China to take control of the oil fields of Saudi Arabia's Middle East, Kuwait? How our allies in the statement of the indifference shown to fate of oil market?We do not choose not only out of the oil market in the world we are really disturbing, but we do not but choosing to deal with the vulnerability as well as our ability to.
We share much of the anxiety over u.s. faces difficulties in the world today, including terrorism, nuclear proliferation rise of China.Will encourage our military leaders know that are among the best and brightest, as well as the most powerful and displayed in our company.Knowledge and skills in all ASCS are analytic monitor equality of all students in our graduate top. good maybe even more, since men and women has a wealth of practical and real personal stake of United States foreign policy. I, but not very encouraging, surprised at least.
