There is a saying, most notably in the third world about the US State Dept. "If you are wanting of an early funeral, pull the whiskers of the tiger".
This "tiger", plays with major powers the same game. The utter contempt for anything but their very own, somewhat noble, ill conceived and presumptive view of worldly affairs, has cause for concern. Madame Sec.Dr.Rice, called the Russian Federation, "irrelevant" only 24 hours ago.
I agree, that the Russians and Chinese are doing great business with Iran, so is Europe. Finally, we must not forget Pres.Hugo Chavez, whom this writer finds intriguing.
So,..will the Russia/China duo, cast their vote against Iran.? Never, not after all the arm twisting, for the Great Spell of GWB has waned, soon to be lost forever.
Mr.Ahmadinejad, reads the press, he shrugs, everybody shrugs, so, will Israel shrug??? I really wonder whether Mr.Putin will pull a last minute plug on Iran.?
