Iran, Russiya, and USA

       The nuclear talks between Iran and the US and European Union countries continue to drag on.  Iranians are unserious negotiators, stalling for time, even as they watch the Europeans and US become engaged further in the Middle East.  The use of airstrikes against the IS murderers does not indicate any abandonment of the area soon.  Iran has been backsliding on its much publicized statement of "We are ready to sign a deal".   Really, the Iranians are playing the waiting game.  But this waiting game only intensifies the Western anxieties coupled with a nuclear capable Iran.   The Israelies certainly are growing more anxious as time goes on.
     All of this brings us to the topic of Russiya's involvement with Iran and its nuclear power needs for domestic use.   Russiya has been supplying sufficient fuels to Iran for some time.  And why would Iran develop a production capability that is both expensive and unnecessary?  Who wants to answer that one?  Please, don't all stand at once.
     The outcome is fairly clear:  severe sanctions are in the offing and Iran will join Russiya as international outlaws, cutoff from western civilization, again.
      Will the Ayatollah lose any sleep?  Hardly.
