ACT for America

The Mission Viejo Chapter of ACT for America will hold a General Meeting on Mon., July 8. Doors open at 7:00 p.m. The meeting starts promptly at 7:30 p.m. and ends at 9:30 p.m.

The guest speaker will be Eyal Aranoff, co-founder of the Fuel Freedom Foundation. His topic will be “Bankrupting Jihad Inc. with $3.00 a Gallon Auto Fuel!” Aranoff is a fuels-choice advocate who will describe a practical path to cheaper, cleaner, American-made fuels that will break OPEC and bankrupt jihad supporters.

Because of growing world trade, the world GDP expanded from $5 trillion in 1973, to $70 trillion in 2012. The transportation of all those goods requires petroleum fuels. Lots of it. This addiction to oil, the world's most important strategic resource, empowers OPEC to keep prices artificially high. By controlling supply, they dictate worldwide oil prices, enabling them to extract hundreds of billions of dollars in ill-gotten gains, each year. Billions of dollars of that money ultimately support jihad against the West.

But what if there were competing fuels for ground, air and sea transportation? What if those fuels were cheaper and cleaner than oil-based fuels, and supported American jobs, innovation and national security? These fuels exist and can easily replace $100-a-barrel petroleum with $50-a-barrel fuels. At that price, all the oil dictatorships in the Middle East would collapse, the region would become impoverished, weak and isolated. The rich, spoiled petro billionaires wouldn't have any money to wage jihad. 

That dream can become a reality, in the next few years. 

Eyal will discuss:

• The true cost of our dependence on one transportation fuel: oil. 
• The Fuel Freedom blueprint for eliminating our dependence on foreign oil, soon.
• How America can set much lower fuel prices by opening up our markets to fuel choice.  
• Why alternative fuels and oil prices will stabilize around $50 a barrel, or $3.00 a gallon. 
• How $50-a-barrel oil dooms oil rich, jihad-funding societies to poverty and impotence.
• What you can do to make this dream a reality.

Eyal Aronoff is a co-founder of Quest Software, which was recently sold to Dell for $2.4 billion, and co-founder of the Fuel Freedom Foundation, which is dedicated to ending America's oil addiction by opening markets to cheaper, cleaner, healthier replacement fuels such as ethanol, methanol and natural gas.
Eyal earned his undergraduate degree summa cum laude in chemistry and computer science from Bar Ilan University near Tel Aviv. Working out of the kitchen of a one-bedroom apartment in Princeton, New Jersey, Aronoff developed software programs and co-wrote a book on Oracle databases. When the opportunity came to join Vinny Smith in founding Quest Software, he moved to Orange County.

Aronoff traces his commitment to breaking America's oil addiction to his Israeli roots. As a young boy, he lost his father in the 1967 Six Day War. Then, on Sept. 11, 2001, Aronoff's step-brother and his new wife were both killed in the World Trade Center attack. In the wake of 9/11, Aronoff began to turn his attention to answering the question of how to free the U.S. economy from its dependence on imported oil, which he believes would, in turn, help ensure America's geopolitical security.

Aronoff will speak for about 50 minutes followed by about 20 minutes for questions.

A $5 donation will be appreciated to help cover meeting costs. The location is the Norman P. Murray Community Center (Sycamore B Room), 24932 Veterans Way, Mission Viejo.
