Iran update 1.0

[Scythe13]

This sounds like Iran are setting sides in a typical 'youre with us or against us' attitude.

Moday the talks begin on the embargo.

This article isn't Iran, but it is in the Arab nations.

More unrest around Syria. Things could get interesting over there. But it seems unrest in neighbouring countries could halt any 'negative' action from Iran. You wouldn't go to war when a nearby country is up in arms about something.

The USS Enterprise has just entered the Persian Gulf (press TV). The vessel is ready to be de-commissioned as it is Fifty years old now, so many people are saying it will be a sacrificial offering that starts the whole shooting match off. I'm not truly convinced of this, an attack may destroy this ship, but with eight nuclear reactors on board the resultant radiation would affect the whole area, including those regimes we support, ie Saudi Arabia, Bahrain etc.
I will certainly keep tabs on this, and see how it develops

Keep us up to date Tartar.

I'm busy actually doing some work now, and since I've not heard from Mick for a while, you're my man to keep me up to date with the outside world.
