WNU Editor: The impression that I am getting is that the Iranians believed that by signing onto this nuclear deal it would then open the floodgates for international trade and investment .... and of course it has not. To get financial institutions to do business with a regime that is unwilling to change their support for groups that many in the West have labelled as terrorist organizations is a tough sale .... doubly so when it comes to investment when Iran is uninterested in changing the myriad of regulations and tax policies that they have when it comes to that. So the Iranians are bitching .... and they are blaming the U.S.. I do expect that with time this is going to pass .... and I am sure that the Iranians must know that .... but for the moment they are having fun yanking the American chain .... and the U.S. is obliging them.
