Everyone
knows that Iran does not have nuclear weapons. These negotiations are
really about re-integrating Iran into the U.S. Imperial Order as Iran
was before the 1979 Revolution— becoming once again the American
“policeman” for
the Persian Gulf. For well-known reasons, Israel cannot do that job.
Israel will remain America’s “policeman” on the Mediterranean for the
Northern Middle East. And Iran is slated to become once again America’s
“policeman” for the Persian Gulf together with
all its oil and gas fields and the Straits of Hormuz through which
most energy supplies are shipped to Europe, China, Japan and elsewhere
in Asia. Integrating Iran will also enable the United States to
consolidate its tenuous toe-hold in Afghanistan and
thus continue to project power into Central Asia with its riches of oil
and gas
fields there. It appears that Iran is willing to go along with this Agenda.
