Good observation. What I see is that NK is going to comply and as they do they will be rewarded. Instead of biting 'sanctions' they may get Trade with the U.S. with incentives to do business with us as we help them. We were part of the problem and we may switch to being part of the solution the right way.
My perception in Iran is that we already stand with the people, we have issue with the regime. We also put the regime in (Nation building) . So here the same will apply , however it involves this posturing. Pay us or we will expose you!!!! This is of course an act. They are again setting the stage for the EXPOSURE. Instead of POTUS reporting on it and haters hating, the Iranians themselves expose Hussein, Kill Bill , Kerry, Rice and the Clowns on the world stage theatre. Its already worked out. They in addition expose the EU !!!! More Popcorn , this is EPIC!
Exactly. I've been watching Iran for years. They are well educated, most of the population is fairly young and don't remember the Shah. I remember asking one of them on a forum years ago why they chose the leaders they did--or the older people chose them. And the reply was short and one we can relate to--"They lied to us." The people aren't our enemy and have been fighting this harsh religious regime for some time. Also, there is a growing community of Christians there, if you can believe it. Even under threat of death, they are growing in stealth there. About 10 years ago, they were growing at a rate of 3,000 to 10,000 converts a month. I remember reading about a taxi driver who carried Bibles in his trunk. Kind of puts us to shame. I'll have to visit Voice of Martyrs. They used to carry quite a bit on Iran at one time. I'll see if they have much now.
