Everyone went nuts protesting it. Then the price of energy exploded and shot past $110 a barrel within 12 months. All those SUV gas hog driving part-time Greenies shut up REAL quick.
I wonder how public perception will change towards taking the gloves off IF pump prices start to hurt.
I suspect opposition to aggressive kinetic action will fade if climbing pump prices are perceived to be related.
Will rising pump prices provide scope for a temporary permit(if not a license) to kill?
And if so, would the permit come too late?

For me the pump prices shouldn't go up, yet they will. But I hear what you're saying. I feel the world, Arab League, and even OPEC should have been doing something about the stealing of oil on the "black market." With all the open sorce reporting and articles you know who is buying it and general amounts they are getting them per barrel at.
I would be targeting the trucks leaving oil refineries on top of ISI/ISIL/ISIS/IS "units and Formations."
