#2 How long until India acheives Satan status like us and Israel?

I'm no Henry Kissinger but does it make a lot of sense for Iran to vow vengeance against yet another nuclear capable country?

#3 The LNG deal is dead and now the pipeline deal is dead.

Iran has singled India out for criticism over Delhi's support for Iran to be referred to the UN Security Council over its nuclear plans.

#5 "The Iran(t)ians think they got indies over a barrow, literally. Oh, the sweet but rotting smell of blackmail."

Except that it's but a commodity on a world market. They have to sell to someone. My first guess is that the recent runup in world price has caused the Iranians to want to RENEGOTIATE the selling price more than anything else.

#7 It's "Gaza Syndrome" -- the hardliners would rather take the whole country down with them than compromise with anyone on anything. The problem is that the U.N., the EU, and such have given the hardliners delusions of legitimacy instead of demanding civil behavior. Iran is the screaming child in the supermarket.

#8 It seems especially stupid for Iran to threaten anyone at this time. When you're a rogue pretending to be one of the boys, tis wise to sit with a poker face rather than react at all, no ?

#9 This Iranian pres is making our job so easy I wonder if he is not a Manchuring Canadite from the Bushitler ROVEEEVVVVVV alein Oil clone conspiracy...right

Ah but for real this guy is a idiot. You dont make friends by openly threating everyone and in this case the Iranians mistake was that they should have pulled a Saddam, oil development rights contracts to the boys. Saddam knew everyone has a price you just have to bid up to it. Hell just ask France, Russia, ect... Oh well I guess Russia did get the bid from Iran. The problem with Russia is they are well known through history of sellen out playin both sides against the middle and just aint what they used to be. China ehhh the US has a lot of ways to bribe them like not pinching off the IV they got stuck in our jugular vein sucking the life out of our Industry.
