Gas Station Attendant Foreign Policy

So yesterday I'm working in NOVA and on the way back we stop somewhere off I-66 to get diesel. I fuel up and head inside to grab a water and pay. The attendant asks if I'd like my water and diesel separate (common if you've a company fuel card). I tell him no. At this point he assumes that I'm paying for the diesel personally (quite the opposite, the boss is just kind enough to buy my snacks as well) and sympathizes with me. He then offers me this bit of hope: "Well, maybe we'll get lucky and Israel will just bomb the hell out of 'em and the price of gas will come down."

I don't even know what to say to that. Yeesh...
