| Anonymous Coward User ID: 10555199 02/19/2012 06:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I hate to tell you but the sanctions already in place prevent anyone buying oil from Iran.... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 10555199 Right, leave it to the propaganda machine to claim the Iranians are the evil ones for shutting off the oil flow. so... ![]() Well one could take it either way. The Iranians chest beating saying they have cut off oil sales when in fact the companies themselves have stopped buying. Or the west blaming them for cutting off oil sales when in reality no one is allowed to buy oil off Iran any more due to UN sanctions. |

"His warning comes on the same day that Iran confirmed it was stopping selling oil to Britain and France." [link to www.dailymail.co.uk] |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1218016 02/19/2012 07:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | France and Britain aren't buying a significant amount of oil from them anyway. Meaningless news. A new company (third party) will be set up outside of Britain and France to purchase oil from Iran, and the new companies will then on sell the oil (eventually) to Britain and France. Same thing with embargoes on Iran. Iran will just get a third party, say China or Russia to purchase goods from France, Britain etc and then on sell to Iran. Just a lot of political paper pushing to be done. |

Iran simply can't afford to lose this source of revenue till mid this year when the eu embargo comes into action... ![]() |

Iran is tied strongly, economically, and to some cultural degree to the west. The east also has some economic incentives particularly in china. If ever a place looked like Armaggeden it's Iran, because it will be the focalpoint of where east meets west, and each will be seeking dominance over the other. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 10685887 02/19/2012 07:58 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | According to Wikileaks, Saudi Arabia will begin to run out of oil in 2013. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 10356731 NYMEX crude oil is near #105.00/brl as of 4:45 PST, Feb. 19m 2012m if what can be seen on CNBC is true. Economies of all nations are being impacted by the rising crude oil prices. If the Western backed oil producing nations like Saudi Arabia are to run out of oil by 2013, then what has gone on in the ME since the beginning of 2011 makes perfect sense. The West wants the crude oil in the Caspian Sea region, but the nations of the Eastern bloc, Russia and China, don't want them to have it. WAR is inevitable. |
