Iran- and the nukes

[John Uskglass]

Kharn misquoted. It is
"You have balls. I like balls."

Last kicks of a dying regime. Unlike North Korea Iran's population is extremley educated and very, very ready for change. The current apathy will not last.

Don't forget, getting all nuke happy is a big way to boost nationalism. Worked for India's BJP, and to a lesser extent, France.

France has nukes?



Anyway, why does all of this sounds like some anime/game?

And the most famous of all, GIS.

Maybe these people know something that we don't. It's surreally interesting that the possibility of some of these "fantasies" become realities is much higher than I would have thought.

As for fossile fuel demands in CN, it will go higher. I don't know how the government expects to satisify this HUGE demand that is still coming in the following say 25 years. CN + Brazil + India = the end of oil as we know it? As for the highway/pipeline? Why not?

Building another silk road will just give CN more excuse to send soldiers to the border, esp in XinJang. The folks there want to stay in China as much as the Tibetans do. I wonder if there are any fundamentalist in the region? Or has CN's strong arm policy helped keeping all the crap in place? A lesson for Iran and US?
