So the Ukraine economic tit-for-tat begins. I called it a few days ago. Iran is their first move, wanna bet if we try sanctions they sign an arms deal? Antiaircraft missile defense systems first, fighters and trainers as a second response.

So we should still stick our noses into other nations? Seems to be screwing things up more than helping, Iraq, Libya, Egypt, Syria, and now Iran. The list grows. Bear in mind O`Bozo had his chance with real regime change there, somehow that popular uprising wasn`t worth the trouble.

If you believe Russia had any economic sanctions in place against Iran, there's a bridge in Brooklyn going cheap... I'm sure the Russians want to sell a truckload of weaponry to Iran, including nukes, but if Iran detonates a nuke on American soil, the return to sender address will point to Moscow. Does Russia really want to be irradiated for a few billion dollars? Besides, Iran's not exactly flush with foreign exchange, given its communist economic structure. (Yup - it's Islamist in the social realm, communist in the economic realm - the best of both worlds, from an asylum inmate's point of view).
