Saudi Arabian Oil

NPR's Steve Inskeep talks to Robert Baer, a former CIA agent who worked in the Middle East. They discuss potential future terrorist attacks on Saudi Arabia's oil infrastructure. Over the weekend, armed militiamen killed 22 workers at a compound in the Saudi city of Khobar. Baer is the author of upcoming book Sleeping With the Devil: How Washington Sold Our Soul for Saudi Crude.
