Pivot to Persia or bust
[anti-Israel bias, but not too far off the mark IMO]
Desperate, isolated Likudniks will try anything to derail Geneva, including a string of false flags.
Now for the grown-ups. In terms of Russian foreign policy, it's now a string of victories.
Syria. Ukraine. And now Iran.
Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov is a man who can do no wrong, especially in the developing world, as the absolute majority of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) supports Iran's legitimate nuclear rights.
Russia and also China (in the usual, silent but imposing background) consider a strong Iranian economy - as well as a stable Syria - matters of supreme self-interest.
Both abhor the possibility of Bandar Bush's goons spreading out from Syria towards the Caucasus and even Xinjiang.
Both want an Iran normalized with the West as a crucial stabilizing factor in Southwest Asia.
The question is whether the Western, financial Masters of the Universe will allow a sovereign, independent Iran in the same league of Russia and China.
That would only solidify yet a new Asian integration victory in the New Great Game in Eurasia.
The real test starts now.
It should always be stressed that a practically full Western blockade of Iran - financial and in oil sales - is still in effect.
Tehran is still confined to export only 1 million barrels of oil a day.
Yet the temptation may be great to sideline cynicism and bet on the Obama administration realizing that everything of consequence in Southwest Asia revolves around Iran.
And once again I'll go for broke; there can't possibly be a pivoting to Asia without a pivot to Persia.
