today us told israel that they aint got enough jet fighters and bombers to destroy iranian nuclear plants. they said they should buy some more from them, especially some bunker crackers. they recommended about 1000 planes are needed for the airstrike. its just a question of time
Rhetorical given they were not buying from Iran anyway. (UK not at all, France only a small amound and had already said they'd stop in a few months.
This counter move by Iran is rather empty then, however, considered a bit of a warning towards other Euro countries such as Italy and Spain.
Similar to that bastions of double speak the UK/France/USA. They called for an EU wide ban on Iranian oil but failed to tell all the other EU countries they don't import any themselves. But hey it makes headlines for the political leaders and they can strut around looking important.Quote:

That's why they didn't ban purchases overnight, certain countries needed time to make alternative arrangements, and Italy are still being paid in oil for work already done in Iran.
The only doublespeak here is from you. A pathetic attempt at inventing a falsehood.

Iran’s Decision to Halt Oil Sales Will Have ‘No Impact,’ U.K.’s Hague Says

Jan. 27 (Bloomberg) -- Total SA Chief Executive Officer Christophe de Margerie talks about the European embargo on Iranian oil and shale gas production.

Iran’s decision to halt sales of crude oil to French and British buyers to pre-empt a European Union ban on imports will have “no impact on Britain’s energy security or supplies,” said U.K. Foreign Secretary William Hague.
Iran “will give its crude oil to new customers instead of French and U.K. companies,” the Shana oil ministry news website reported, citing Alireza Nikzad Rahbar, a ministry spokesman. The announcement came as OPEC’s second-biggest producer negotiates contracts to supply China.
The action may “prompt further price gains for crude,” John Caiazzo, president of Acuvest Commodity Brokers Inc. in Temecula, California, wrote in a note to clients today.
France got 4 percent of its oil imports from Iran in the first half of 2011 and the U.K. 1 percent, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Iran will raise crude volumes sent to China “soon,” the state Mehr news agency said Feb. 16.
The producer is suspending exports as tension rises in the Gulf over its nuclear program, sending oil prices to the highest level in nine months. The EU and U.S. have imposed additional sanctions against the country, restricting trade and financial transactions. Iran, the largest producer in the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries after Saudi Arabia, is also under four rounds of United Nations sanctions.
“The Iranian government can act to bring sanctions to an end,” Hague said in comments today to lawmakers in the House of Commons in London. “Our ultimate goal is a return to negotiations that addresses all the issues of concern about Iran’s nuclear program and the successful conclusion of those negotiations.”

It would impact Italy, as they'd have to go on the open market to establish a new contract (or contracts). They are not *buying* Iranian oil, they are being *paid* with it, so a double blow for them.
you sound like a complete BNP fuckwit, harryb, proud British retard etc... but what else is new ?

Iran is selling less oil at a higher price. Smart move I would say. They keep up the tension with headlines that sell. Those sneaky little Iranians have learned alot from their beloved enemy Israel.

Oil prices have crept higher amid a brighter outlook for the U.S. economy and heightened tensions over Iran's nuclear program. And now, oil is trading at a nine-month high after Iran said it had halted some oil shipments and threatened to halt more and European leaders agreed to lend Greece $170 billion to avoid a debt default.

Feb. 21 (Bloomberg) -- Oil rose to the highest level in more than nine months after euro-area finance ministers agreed on a second bailout for Greece and Iran said it stopped selling oil to France and Britain.
Quote:
NEW YORK — Oil prices on Tuesday climbed to the highest level since May on concerns about Europe's oil supplies.
Iran announced over the weekend that it will stop selling oil to Britain and France in retaliation for a planned European oil embargo this summer. The move was mainly symbolic — Britain and France import almost no oil from Iran — but it raised concerns that Iran could take the same hard line with other European nations that use more Iranian crude
And we now interupt our program to bring you a word from our local oil sponsors
:rolleyes:

A semiofficial Iranian news agency quotes a senior military commander as saying that Tehran will strike pre-emptively at its enemies, if it feels it is in danger.
The comments by deputy head of Iran's armed forces Gen. Mohammed Hejazi were carried by Fars agency on Tuesday.
"We do not wait for enemies to take action against us," says Hejazi, who heads the military's logistical wing.
"We will use all our means to protect our national interests." The U.S. and Israel have not ruled out military action against Iran's nuclear program, which they say is aimed at developing weapons technology. Iran says its program is for peaceful purposes.
Israel really needs to fuck Americans hard and raw so that they start to get the message that they are a cheap whore for Israel, then they might start to wake upQuote:
