Iran says not scared of Security Council, warns on oil prices (AFP)

The really scary thing:

And when asked if oil- and gas-rich Iran could use its vast energy reserves as a tool in the dispute, Ahmadinejad replied his nation also has "leverage" of its own to defend its national interests.

Yep - leverage, indeed.

AFP - Iran said it was "not scared" of being hauled before the UN Security Council and warned any sanctions over its disputed nuclear programme could cause an unexpected hike in oil prices.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
