Iranian Islamic Regimes' trade of oil for tea is an interesting attempt to persuade the powers that be that the Persian purveyor of possible nuclear intrigues is not so daring to presume they can load missile silos and launchers just in case they fail to convince the world of peaceful intentions when firing ballistic missiles towards the Mediterranean. Is that darjeeling? Now what would happen if the sanctions were actually reduced; more tea, anyone?
