The Middle East is going up in flames.  Gaddafi is rumored to be fleeing from Libya to Venezuela in the welcoming arms of Hugo Chavez.  The U.S. is none too complacent getting prepared for some kind of terror.  In the meantime, Iran continues to try to deflect their own personal citizenry discourse by drumming up hatred towards America (while killing a few of their own citizens in the process).  Maybe we will see Mahmoud Ahmadinejad fleeing to Venezuela soon also.  Saudi Arabia is surely concerned with the spreading violence - but then every country dependent upon Saudi oil should be as well - including America.  $200 oil anyone?
