From what I have learned,Iran has got only 9 years of oil reserves(this given by all investors pulling out...).after all no one wish to invest in Iran (big surprise !).So in spite of this "little Mahmoud"various threats/ambitions to rule Middle East,he's still to explain his own populace how he's gonna feed them....and how he (and mullahs)so far squandered the oil money ? Expect that he will play "everpresent external threat from infidels"(read Bush/Blair...) card that many before him used.Easy if you have deliberately suppressed,and not very well educated populace,brainwashed with Koran,and he knows it.....
