Magpie,

Ok, ok, calm down, I forgot to emphasise that my opinion was only my opinion, not withstanding the countless posts of yours expressing your often outrageously optimistic views as fact.

Imho their is near zero chance that either discovery would be sanctioned for development with today's poo outlook. Until either look like being declared "commercial" I will continue to consider both as "non-commercial".

You can likewise take your own stance, even absurdly considering both as commercial until the JV declares them "non-commercial" if you like!

As for Sunnis and Shiites, I cannot share your views having met many of both persuasions whom I could only consider to be kind, generous and even tolerant. I could agree somewhat with you wrt some groups, the Wahabi's and Isis in particular. Wider war there would impact us all quite negatively, as we are seeing with Europe from the Syrian war.
