This goes to the core. As I've been writing, pakistan and nuclear weapons are key. I had not gone so far as to see that oil and nuclear weapons *are the prize*!

Kerry will inherit a host of problems that if not dealt with effectively could either destroy or cripple America. The most obvious is what we call terrorism, but which is more than that – a giant game of Empire with oil and nuclear weapons as the prizes. From Afghanistan to Morocco, but centering in Pakistan and Saudi Arabia (not in Iraq or Afghanistan) this game will determine who controls the most important resource in the world. Oil. And the US isn’t winning this war, it’s losing it. Saudi Arabia is increasingly unstable; it’s armed forces are unreliable; it’s strongest allies are ideologically wedded to the House of Saud’s greatest enemy and it’s greatest resource (oil) is exposed to strikes whenever it’s opponents choose.
