Gas from Saudi Arabia

Read this it's worth your very time you fill up the car, you can avoid
putting more money into the coffers of Saudi Arabia. Just buy from gas
companies that don't import their oil from the Saudis. Nothing is more
frustrating than the feeling that every time I fill-up the tank, I am
sending my money to people who are trying to kill me, my family, and my
friends. I thought it might be interesting for you to know which oil
companies are the best to buy gas from.
Major companies that import Middle Eastern oil
(for the period 9/1/00--8/31/01
Shell........................205,742,000 barrels
Chevron/Texaco......144,332,000 barrels
Exxon/Mobil..............130,082,000 barrels
Marathon.................117,740,000 barrels
Amoco.......................62,231,000 barrels
If you do the math at $30/barrel, these imports amount to over $18
BILLION!
Here are some large companies that do not import Middle Eastern oil:
Citgo............0 barrels
Sunoco. ......0 barrels
Conoco....... 0 barrels
Sinclair ........0 barrels
BP/Phillips..... 0 barrels
Hess............0 barrels
All of this information is available from the Department of Energy
and can be easily documented. Refineries located in the U.S. are required
to state where they get their oil and how much they are importing. They
report on a monthly basis.

Keep this list in your car; share it with friends. Stop paying for
terrorism.............
But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of gas buyers.
It's really simple to do!!
Now, don't wimp out at this point...keep reading and I'll explain how
simple it is to reach millions of people!! .
I'm sending this note to about thirty people. If each of you send it to at
least ten more (30 x 10 = 300)... and those 300 send it to at least ten
more (300 x 10 = 3,000) .. and so on, by the time the message reaches the
sixth generation of people, we will have reached over THREE MILLION
consumers!
If those three million get excited and pass this on to ten friends each,
then 30 million people will have been contacted! If it goes one level
further, you guessed it..... THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!! .
Again, all you have to do is send this to 10 people.
How long would all that take? If each of us sends this e-mail out to ten
more people within one day of receipt, all 300 MILLION people could
conceivably be contacted within the next 8 days!!!
