Oil hits record $72 on Iran fears
By Janet McBride
LONDON, April 18 (Reuters) -
Oil surged to a record high above $72 on Tuesday on concern that
Iran's nuclear stand-off with the West could cut oil exports from the
world's fourth-largest crude exporter.
In London, North Sea Brent crude oil jumped 74 cents to an all-time
high of $72.20 a barrel as Iran and the West exchanged increasingly
sharp words over the Islamic Republic's determination to push ahead
with a nuclear programme.
U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude oil hit a record $70.88, smashing
through its end-August high of $70.85.

In other words, all that crap about emerging makets is just that - a
steaming pile created by the republican party for campaign contributions
while the oil companies rape the American people at will, with BushCo
looking on approvingly.
