Iran's commercial airplanes being refused fuel

Seems the sanctions against Iran are being honored. Iran may retalliate. According to debka.com Germany, Kuwait and the UAE are refusing to refuel Iranian commercial airplanes. That would strand the planes and the passengers would, I would guess, find other transportation.

Iran threatens oil routes as Obama signs tough new energy sanctions

A US-Iran showdown loomed closer early Friday, July 2, when president Barack Obama signed into law a series of energy sanctions, the toughest yet, for arresting Iran's nuclear weapons program. Iran's defense minister Gen. Ahmad Vahidi warned that searches of its ships or planes would have "dire consequences" for world security and the Middle East in particular.

It seems that they may already have some sort of plan of action.
