I think we are decades away from the war for energy that you are envisioning although i would have to agree that it is inevitable.

I think the war that no one is talking about that is on our doorstep is the currency war. The destruction of the dollar is upon us and it is just a matter of time before the people with the real "money", not this bullshit fiat currency, tell us to take a walk.

What do you think gas prices do then?
