Ted and JFShepard, what's the point of economic sanctions then? My God, does that sanction make sense to you? Imagine the Iraninans who have lost loved ones or friends on crashing jetliners. Planes crash a lot in Iran. And for those Iranians who think about it.....do you think they wonder whether plane travel in their country would be safer if they were allowed to buy Boeing planes? And how do you think that effects their perception of this country? This crap started in the Reagan years and just goes on and on year after year making absolutely no sense.
