The west is dithering around because of feckless leadership and Russia is filling the vacuum. When Russia controls all the oil in the Middle East do any of you think that it will allow for the free flow of it as was the case in the past. Europe will have to go on its knees to get oil.
I'm appalled by the short shortsightedness, lack of will, and general ineptitude not only of European leadership but of that of the US as well. This has led to Russia, a second world country in every measure but arms, being able to assume the role of a world power in the Near East and filling its own coffers. The US will survive it because of its natural gas and shale oil, but I'm not so sanguine about the prospects for continued prosperity in Europe.
As you sow, so shall you reap.
If this is the real problem for you, oil.
Personally, I hope it happen. I trust EU. With this push, I open a new age in green energy section.
But,
Don't worry, I don't think Iran and Arabs can't be in same pact.
