Due, good idea to talk to West. You would think the uncertainty of a revolutionary transition would be sufficient cause to defer such purchases. I think it could come to a head this month, as the Iranians, et. al., attempt to incite everyone, re the palestinian state iseue. Around this fiasco, there could be further grounds.
On the flip side, what they're balancing is cutting off an entry into Egypt. Already, they've pledged billions...
I guess the whole freakin' region's a balancing act. Oil sales for Islam.
