So how will the Iran issue play out ? Seeing how China has a U.N veto unless they can be made to change there minds then it's a safe bet they will simply veto any sanctions brought forth in the U.N .

So how will the issue of Iran be brought to a head ? Well it seems either Israel will try and deal with them or the people of Iran may bring forth a revolution , if the reports from Iran can be trusted .

What would happen if the U.S said to the collective world , its your problem deal with it . How would other countries react ?
