All Talk And Pending Action On Iran?
There's been plenty of speculation this weekend on a pending air strike against nuclear facilities in Iran. Some reports say that Saudi Arabia would not protest the attack as they have reason to fear Iran's nuclear weapons as much as other nearby nations. Vice President Joe Biden made similar "suggestions" that the U.S. could not prevent another nation from taking unilateral action against Iran.

Actually, the statement, as reported in the Jerusalem Post, is a nice blend of interests. For now, the middlegame continues.
