It's a shit deal and does little but make people feel a little better. What's really awesome is Iran gets a lot of money and gets to continue perfecting their ballistic missiles too... so when they do get nukes, they can just plop them on the top and wheeeeeee! I guess it depends who they are most pissed at then, but my money is on Israel getting hit first. Israel will certainly hit back, and then the rest of the Arab states will join in. My guess is by then the US will be so disengaged from reality we won't do anything about it... except maybe sign a condolence book at an embassy somewhere.
Nothing to worry about at all!
That is just scaremongering, I am no great fan of Iran but they deserve more respect and the ME cannot continue to just support the US' allies and dominate the rest. It is just such a stupid failed and short term solution.
