No Oil For Europe!

http://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/unternehmen/0,1518,811464,00.html

Response to embargo
Iran wants to turn the oil tap Europe

"If the draft is adopted, the government will have to stop its oil sales to Europe before the EU launches the oil embargo against Iran," quotes the British newspaper "Financial Times" (FT),the spokesman for the Energy Commission of Tehran's Parliament, Emad Hosseini. Until Sunday should be the law in Parliament.
The planned delivery stop is a reaction to the adopted in this week's economic sanctions against Iran. You see, inter alia, by 1 July all the oil supplies of the country in the European Union to stop


this will be the deathblow for the the PIIGS

edit: wasn't sure if it should be here or in the iran thread, please move as seen fit

Less than 5% of Europe's oil comes from Iran.

If i were king - i would wean the monkeys off oil at 5% at a time too.
I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope
For hope would be hope for the wrong thing; wait without love,
For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith
But the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting.

Re: No Oil For Europe!

i was conflicted on where to put it because the financial implications for greece in particular are quite dire. also the fact that iran is deciding if they should do this before the EU's embargo begins making the march collapse of greece a best-case scenario.

i had multiple windows open when i posted this and wasn't 100% sure where i put it afterwards. mods, please move.

Re: No Oil For Europe!

I favor cross-postings when such conflicts arise (for the person posting).

Makes me think of the first line of this quote:

Oh what a tangled web we weave
When first we practice to deceive. - Sir Walter Scott (Marmion, 1808)

:D

I agree on the cross-post idea.

Cross post means to place a post in more than one thread, if the post belongs just as much in Financial Breaking News as in the Iran thread, for example. Cross-posting, then, can have the one post be discussed in relation to Financial impacts, separate from specific impact in relation to Iran thread discussion.

Re: No Oil For Europe!

Wouldn't that be cluttering? I think that most people go to the "View active topic-board". Slicing up your comments in segments and posting in different forum seems too elaborate and confusing.

Maybe when a member decides to cross-post, it should be mentioned in each post, at the top of the post. I agree that it could be confusing, however, sometimes cross-posting is warranted. Now, likely, more often, as we are seeing the interrelationships of all symptoms of Collapse coming closer together. Or, in other words, the threads connecting Dot A to Dot B are becoming closer, thicker, and more frequent.
