Now, yes. But once Chinese money flows into those countries that are selling to China, they'll want "consumer" goods as their wealth grows. Who'll be on hand to supply them?
China.
Long term plan.

Would "all costs" include a nuclear war?
I know about Irainian revolution and about the zar that the US put in place and I know that the youth in Iran are prowestern. I don't want to see inocent people killed here or there. But I'm all for knocking out thier reactors and anyone that gets in the way to preserve my country and way of life. If Iran gave up thier nuclear ambitions their would nothing to fear but fear itself. Bottom line is Iran wants to destroy Israel and the United States. When someone says they want to distroy my country while persuing a nuclear weapons I belive it. Someone once said that he wanted to exterminate the Jews the world didn't belive him until it was almost too late. I don't want to have a chance it happening again.

If you would know history of your own country you would know why Iran hates your country. See 1953 and everything following until 79. See Saddam and what he did to Iran. So they would be crazy if they would love you, it would be like if you would love the guy who killed your children and tried to kill you twice. Madness.
Of course, if you would know anything about Iran's population, it's that Iran's youth loves the western culture for the most part, everything the Bush administration did was turn iranians against the US when they were pro-west before the US invaded Iraq and try now to invade Iran.
So I say don't go in Iran or iranians will hate the US for decades to come like they did between 53 and 79 when being killed and tortured by the US puppet dictator.

that speaks volumes to me. Especially coming from the "Tyrant from Iran".
I would have to say that our policies to this point have been far more tyrannical than Iran's.

Most of our media outlets are controlled by Rupert Murdoch who is tied in with some heavy duty people.
Bush is obviously a puppett and if you follow the money you will begin to unravel a ball of yarn that leads to a few names and companies that are raking in the dough from all of Bush's decisions to invade other countries, all of which Murdoch is friends with.
These "friends" are the real decision makers in the white house. Don't believe everything you read, hear, and see.

why would Iran do what everyone else(US, France, Russia etc) wants?
who's to say that they can't make up their own minds. Just because other countries are moving away from plutonium does not mean that they have to. Yes Iran may be a threat to Israel, but the U.S is a threat to Iran.
Now, I'm not saying what is right or what is wrong I'm just adding devil's advocate to this discussion.
Well the US doesn't openly brag about wanting to wipe a country(Israel) of the the planet earth like Iran does......

Excuse my dry sense of humor but I think they should put a billboard in front of the U.N. saying something like this:
"This place is periodically occupied exclusively by George W. Bush, if you see any representatives here of any nations other than America it is only an illusion done via camera tricks."
The United States is committed to the security of Israel and to maintaining the qualitative edge that is critical to Israel's security. Israel's confidence in its security and U.S.-Israel strategic cooperation contribute to the stability of the entire region, as demonstrated once again during the Persian Gulf War.
