You have a valid point Skull, however apart from sand, Oil's the only thing Iran has to sell. If it stopped selling, they're own country would collapse in a fit of poverty and civil war.

Old Nimetmiheadcase may be mad, but he's not stupid and knows the limits.

Aye, but do the Israelis and the Americans?


They're setting up Iran for a sore one . . . . :shock:


The Yanks need a war. That's how you keep a good military economy going . . . :shock:

It's funny you should say that . .. the Iranians are no stranger to hardship.

While I think America and Israel would pash all over them in a war, it would take Terrorism and the price of OIL to a whole new level . . . . :shock:
