What I'm arguing is that being able to tell the Saudis to kiss off means we won't ever have a reason to invade them. Realize I'm using "the Saudis" as a proxy

What I'm arguing is that being able to tell the Saudis to kiss off means we won't ever have a reason to invade them.
Realize I'm using "the Saudis" as a proxy here. But further:
Can you imagine a scenario in which the following things are true:
a) we buy, say, 40% less oil overall
b) we have the same tensions with SA and Iran as we do now
c) SA and Iran are as rich as they are now (translate: capable of financing terror groups to fight proxy wars)
?
I can't.
