1. Meanwhile we just found another juicy oil field
Arash ,   Tehran-Iran   (06.21.12)
Around Iran's northern sea. I seriously doubt the people who crave for oil would want to let that one just pass.... The rest is just the usual american bla bla bla.
2. Right, suck up to china but only because they own the US.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (06.21.12)
3. P5.1 fooling Israel
Amos T   (06.21.12)
Its been confirmed in various news reports today by journalists privy to the P5.1 talks that even though the talks are practically dead, the process is being being kept alive & dragged on through "expert-level talks" and other such technicalities Ashton and other P5.1 diplomats solely to prevent an Israeli strike. Netanyahu and Ehud Barak should note the P5.1 devious tactics and take action against Iran.
4. You have to ask Obama
John M   (06.21.12)
You have to ask Obama whats the use of "10% sanctions with waivers" ? Iran is mostly self-sufficient in food items, only few imported items like cars, gadgets etc are affected. Also has over $100 billion in cash reserves in tax-havens & gold bullion, which is enough for few years. A total naval & land blockade may have been more effective, but not such eye-wash sanctions. And since many countries are co-operating with Iran in thwarting the sanctions, they are clearly not effective.
5. @2 umm... grab your Tomer and go...
Miron ,   USA   (06.21.12)
6. #4,Iran is not even self-sufficient with gasoline,lubricants
ab   (06.21.12)
,reserve parts for industry. Before Bambi allowed for export of Boeing parts to Mullahs Iranian planes were falling down every 2 months or so.Now they're stocked up on them,thanks to their backer at the White House
7. Sanctions EPIC FAIL !
Habi Dostam ,   Tehran, Iran   (06.21.12)
Obama's much trumpeted sanctions against Iran have failed miserably ! Countries like India, Turkey are all actively helping Iran easily bypass the half-hearted sanctions efforts. Successful use of barter system, routing payment thru tax-havens, smuggling oil & goods across border etc....all effectively nullifying the weak sanctions attempts. Obama is a liar & wimp, only interested in his re-election. Only fools believe him. Sanctions EPIC FAIL !
8. Pitiful wman
Mark ,   U S.   (06.21.12)
Hillary Clinton,,,, this woman is pitiful and every day looks like a washed up Tzipi Livni,,,, a no substance politician pressed for a pay check.
9. #7 NICE USE OF COPY & PASTE THERE
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (06.24.12)
Try harder, buddy! This talk back was written by someone else on another article. Copying has become a custom in Iran too I guess.
