Iran, Russia and the Nuclear

History of the Global Now
Current event reflection

An article in the New York Times titled, “Iran Delays Decision on Nuclear Plan” discusses the recent conflicts over an excess of nuclear material in Iran. The UN has been the major “legal” player in this issue.
Iran missed its deadline on Friday to declare whether it would accept a nuclear deal that would ship much of its uranium to Russia, but said that a decision would be forthcoming next week.”
My time really has changed fast. Ten years ago the US would have never been voting to send nuclear equipment into Russia. Now Iran (allow with large portions of the middle east) is the US’s Russia of the 21 cen. Where will the US or the UN be harassing and trying to send all the nucs ten years from now?

No. I don't write predictions. To imbarrasing when they don't come true. The only prediction I can write is this:
Either the world will end or it will not end.

That's not a prediction. That's a fact. Here's a prediction. The world will end, phenomenologically speaking. It will also begin again. A lady with two glass eyes told me so.
