4/21/12- This is a brief note on the possibility that in the event Iran is attacked by the U.S. and/or Israel, Russia may take the opportunity to invade Georgia and finally finish off Sakashvilli, thereby opening up an overland route to Russian military bases in Armenia which may be used to transport supplies and materiel to Iran during a conflict.
Russian officials have recently spoken regarding this possibility, and there is certainly a faction in the Kremlin that views a possible attack on Iran as an opportunity for Russia to settle old scores with Georgia while expanding her strategic posture by establishing overland contact with Armenian bases.
Assistance to Iran by Russia through Armenia in the vent of an attack on Iran may not tale the form of overt military aid, but may include covert transfers and other forms of clandestine assistance. More will follow on this matter in time.

Nuclear Talks No Place for Compromise
4/21/12- The Istanbul talks taking place between Iran and the so-called P5 nations is certainly an opportunity for both sides to fully air out all concerns. Yet, it should not be interpreted by the West as an Iranian capitulation or attempt to compromise, nor should the Iranian side approach the talks from that perspective.
Iran's position on the matter has been clear for quite some time. Thus, the ball is surely in the NATO countries' court as to how we proceed from this point. Undoubtedly, NATO and its minions understand that the existence of Iran's nuclear program, including further enrichment, research, and infrastructure development is not up for negotiation. The only point that is available for discussion is precisely how NATO chooses to accept the fact of Iran's rise and the new order in the Middle East.
The fact is that NATO and its lackeys will either acknowledge and respect Iran's will, or they will continue to saber rattle and blow hot air. The former approach will lead to peace and the opportunity for a prosperous future in the region, while the latter will lead to greater uncertainty and perhaps a war that is in no one's interests.
