According to one analyst, there are more than 30 U.S. corporations doing business in Iran through foreign subsidiaries or related companies.

It is very sad to know that the rest of the world hate America for the misdeeds of the very few in the highest positions of the government. They had put the rest of the rational-thinking and reasonable Americans caught up in their faulty foreign policies and unpopular decisions. I pity the future leaders of this great nation. It will take decades to undo and repair the damages done by this current administration.

Think Cheney and Bush have lots of motives we don't know about the UN is a lame duck and a big waste of money. 90% or the brass in the Pentagon should be fired, we don't need war.

Cheney seems genetically evil to me. Uncaring and thuggish. Cheney reminds me of that flaming eye in Lord of The Rings.

human beings are hypocrites because of the fact they are able to be. they have the muscle and could apply it to everyone who threatens their self-appointed place as chief playground bully. they do no longer supply a monkey's what something human beings think of and in the event that they ever remark, it extremely is merely to assert that a million) something actually everyone seems to be merely jealous 2) we've undesirable the teeth (no longer inevitably in that order).

Bingo. And we KNOW the corrupt UN is weak on enforcement, too. Nothing bad will happen to US companies there. It will be the untold story.
