#1 It's not good when our enemies gather.

#2 China and Russia don't trust each other, but both want MidEast oil, so if they can "band" together against the US and Israel, that brings the oil closer to each of them.

#3 When the time comes that oil belongs to the US Navy.

#4 That must have been an interesting meeting. Putin's being very friendly to Iran. The Saudis probably don't like that much. Still, they have two important common interests: oil, and hatred of the us.

I guess Putin's trying to play the "OPEC" card: two VP for control of S.A., Venezuela, etc.
