The Open Fuel Standard Act is a bill introduced into the House of Representatives early in May. The bill says that if you're going to sell a car that can burn gasoline, then it must be capable of burning methanol and ethanol as well. Cars would no longer be limited to burning gasoline only.
It's not a big change to the car. GM says it adds about $70 to the production cost of a car (and they ought to know because they've made more flex fuel cars than any other American car company).
Here's why this is a good idea: OPEC controls the price of oil. They deliberately raise and lower their collective production to lower or raise the world price of oil. They are such a large portion of the world market that their production alone can determine world prices.
Starting with the oil embargo in 1973, OPEC has been deliberately keeping oil prices high except where it was in their best interests to let it drop (in order to put competition out of business, for example).
Because the price of oil has been so high for so long, OPEC and the two leading nations of OPEC — Saudi Arabia and Iran — have been reaping unbelievable profits for over 35 years. And what have they been doing with all the largesse we've lavished on them? Readers of the IBA know the answer better than anyone.
The Open Fuel Standard would cut off OPEC. They would no longer be able to raise their prices because other fuels would step into the opening and take the money, and that money would be going to the free world, not to Saudi Arabia, Iran, Venezuela, and the rest of the enemies of the West. So one of two things would happen: Either the price of gasoline would have to come down, or OPEC goes out of business.
Either way it would relieve our economy of a burden it has been struggling under for decades, and it would drastically reduce the money going to Islamic dictatorships.
You know something most people don't know: The main reason orthodox Muslims have been able to build so many mosques and madrassas around the world (that preach fundamental Islam), the main reason they've been able to create powerful legal and lobbying organizations like CAIR, the main reason they have been able to infiltrate into our government, the main reason they have been able to change U.S. textbooks IS BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE MONEY TO DO IT.
Where do they get the money? We give it to them because we don't have a choice at the pump.
This is it. This is the nub, the core, the pivot point of the global jihad. This is the decisive point we've been looking for. If we focused all our forces on this single thing, we could neuter the global jihad. Fuel choice is the decisive point. We must get the Open Fuel Standard Act of 2011 passed no matter what.
Right now, it is possible to pass this bill. But as Saudi money continues to infiltrate and influence American politics and media, there will soon come a time when we will find it impossible to pass such a bill. The window of opportunity will be closed. Our situation is urgent.
The first and most important thing you can do to pass this bill is to call your representative and urge her or him to co-sponsor the Open Fuel Standard Act. Or at least send an email via ACT! for America's CapWiz tool, which will take less than five minutes.
If you'd like to do more, you can stay informed about the progress of the bill and get information on how to help make it happen by subscribing to the Open Fuel Standard blog:

He explains how oil prices have risen dramatically over the last ten years, the part OPEC has played in orchestrating that price hike (and what amounts to an enormous income tax on the world), and what we can do to free ourselves from OPEC's determination to hobble the American economy.
