All the big oil companies are now signing contracts with Bagdad to suck the oil out quicker. We could do the same in Iran, the only losers are the people of those countries and so far the people of the developed countries haven't been too worried about them and as long it it produces cheap oil and other resources I think it might just continue that way.
