#4 So Obama unloads a wad of cash to Iran, who in turn says they will use newfound cash to buy a load of planes and parts from Boeing? Boeing can now go to their gov reps and say hey, ease the line, and we get jobs and cash inflow.

#5 They kept the F-14s flying for a long time, and then they developed the astounding aviation capability we have all read about here - the hyper-sonic, super-stealthy, ion-powered, galactic-range, infidel-immolating fighter aircraft. With missiles even more sophisticated, why can't they make a passenger airplane in their fabulous factories?

#7 I don't see this as being wanted weapons so much as enticing differnet countries with large plane manufacturers to fight to remove sanctions in order to get the sale.
