well to be fare to Iraq and Libya. are countries who had a deep contraction due to the conflict so the growth rate in iraq and libya is just a growth of stability not actual growth

The Economist forecast was very generous indeed.

the only thing holding the Iranian economy together is that oil prices are really high.

Iran's oil and oil sales are obvious targets.

30 years of the same kind of BS. I must laugh when all this is done to raise the price of Oil

you can not boycott or replace Irans OIL

World population is now at a stage where every drop is vital and it has to be kept at a price where only those who can afford it can buy it.

The artificial boycott threats are there to keep the price up.
