Intelearthling, the last I heard, the ANWR reserves could provide an estimated 1 -1.5 million barrels per day and the ANWR reserve is larger than the reserves in Texas or Lousiana. Nowhere near enough to eliminate dependence on imports.
Here's a statement from 2003:
DOI.gov
"ANWR could produce nearly 1.4 million barrels of oil, while Texas produces just more than one million barrels a day, California just less than one million barrels a day and Louisiana produces slightly more than 200,000 barrels a day."
If the reserves in Louisiana have increased since then, please post a link.
Anyway, resorting to violence against Muslims in the manner suggested in this thread might be done if the US is invaded by Muslim armies.
The thought of doing this to get back at people fighting the occupation in Iraq however, just doesn't seem like the right thing to do.
