I have to assume the Saudis will stick to this plan of action. The fist oil embargo worked because there were no viable alternatives to petroleum. Now, with all the alternative energy sources that are slightly less economical than oil, any price spike has the potential to spark a refinement of these technologies that could make them permanent competitors in the energy market. Saudi Ariabia is afraid, and with good reason, that continued high prices could very quickly render oil obsolete for most applications.
