#1 Insurance, you say? Some major infrastructure must be slated for demolition.

#3 Good snark. This confirms my earlier suspicion that that the tough talk from France was a way to control the course of action against Iran.

Maybe it will be effective, I dunno. But the diplomatic games are aimed in more than Iran's direction I think.

#4 *shrug* Germany already said no. What can President Sarkozy offer to change their minds?

#5 Teach Germany the meaning of "redux"? Germany lost a bunch of money when Iraq went down, and they are about to do it again with Iran if the Iranians don't smell the coffee pretty soon.

Then again, I'm glad Germany is declining the sanctions. The taquiyya will stop sooner.
