Energy Victory: Winning the War on Terror by Breaking Free of Oil

In this compelling argument for a new direction in U.S. energy policy, world-renowned engineer and best-selling author Robert Zubrin lays out a bold plan for breaking the economic stranglehold that the OPEC oil cartel has on our country and the world. Zubrin presents persuasive evidence that our decades-long relationship with OPEC has resulted in the looting of our economy, the corruption of our political system, and now the funding and protection of terrorist regimes and movements that are committed to our destruction. In order to release our country from this stranglehold, Zubrin argues that Congress should pass a law requiring that all new cars sold in the USA be flex-fueled. This action, he claims, would destroy the monopoly that the oil cartel has maintained on the globe's transportation fuel supply, opening it up to competition from alcohol fuels produced by farmers worldwide. According to Zubrin's estimates, within three years of enactment, such a regulation would put 50 million flex-fuel vehicles on the road.

Energy Victory offers an exciting vision for a dynamic, new energy policy that would go a long way toward safeguarding homeland security and curbing the effects of global warming.
