#1 ION TOPIX > {Military Expert] A. HOVHANNISYAN: IRAN MAY INVOLVE REGION INTO SERIOUS CLASHES.

ARTIC = Dichotomy between escalatory external circumstances or events which appear to make war on Iran seeming inevitable or unavoidable; versus the Political Processes, Actors trying to ensure that such a clash is postponed or does not occur. ISRAEL, ALONE OR BACKED BY THE US ETC. CAN DEFEAT IRAN [in decisive quick war], WHILE IRAN ON ITS PART CAN THREATEN OR INDUCE THE MIDDLE EAST, PERSIAN GULF REGIONS INTO SERIOUS CLASHES + CONFRONTATIONS, + CREATE MAJOR LOCAL WAR + NUMBER OF SMALLER STATIC/FROZEN CONFLICTS OR SUB-WARS???

and

* SAME > IRAN'S BIGGEST MISTAKE | TOTAL COLLAPSE OF IRAN-UK DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS, EURO CRISES [UK, EU Budget-Econ woes, Scottish independence?] MAY STALL UK'S EFFORT TO PREVENT US-ISRAELI WAR ON IRAN, or conversely an overly harsh or unecesssary Iranian mil response to same.

#5 "Iran has repeatedly violated a U.N. arms embargo with exports to protest-hit Syria"

So, what else is new. It isn't like anyone is actually going to do anything about it and Iran knows it. Empty words and a waste of bandwidth from An Hahar.
