File under: Govt of Iran

#1 Slapped down by two kings in one week. That's got to be some sort of a record.

#2 "If the United States attempts the madness of invading Iran or attacking Venezuela again, the price of oil is probably going to reach $200, not just $100," Chavez told delegates.

The Law of Unintended Consequences flatly states that such a dramatic price shift would accelerate alternative fuel R&D up to warp speeds. Bring it on, ya little turd.

#3 I know that OPEC is afraid of raising the price of oil too high because of what Zen just said, but Venezuela isn't playing like they are aware of it - much like Iran.

I find it hard to believe that Venezuela isn't on exactly the same page as the rest of OPEC to not violate this principle that all successful ~~parasites~~ symbiotic relationships have had to follow since day one.

More evidence that Iran is talking the talk but not walking the walk.

#9 There was a US army advisor believed to be supporting the coup leaders a few years ago. From what I've heard (talking with one of the men involved) we were perfectly willing to see them succeed but weren't involved in the coup attempt itself.

That's not what Hugo believes, however, and that belief has vastly inflated his sense of his own importance in the scheme of things.
