EXACTLY! Real history is much more interesting - and improbable - than any fiction. Which screenplay writer could have devised 9/11 attack? I worked for Siemens for 23 years most abroad. I imagined they moving the HQ to Luxembourg to keep doing business. I never even would have imagined that Siemens would end up paying for someone to take its assets. That's why I say Iran will fall USSR-like just collapse. No war. No invasion. This is going to be the reality. No one would have imagined in May 2003 that the US would be considering talking to Iran to save them in Iraq. I thought (both in year 2005 and 2006 according to Elmat) that the US would declare victory and would leave the freaking place. Or would anyone considered China-US cozying up? Ask any European if they have ever considered that.

Bolivians are upset about being charged to transit gas through territory in northern Chile that was seized during the guano wars several decades ago. Argentina still harbors ill feelings about Chile supporting the UK during the Falklands war. Carlos Menem married a former Miss Chile and spent time in the country after doing what is perceived by the average Argentinian as driving Argentina's economy into the ground. Even though Argentina sells gas to Chile, the political situation is delicate. Peru is not terribly fond of Chile either for reasons I forget, but which are absolutely important to Peruvians. In any case, energy independence is a big issue for Chile considering its uncertain status with its neighbors and nuclear power might offer a good solution. I am mostly a lurker, but I have noticed that you seem to follow Chile. Any particular reason?
