You can trade oil in Iran for Euros
Perhaps that's why they're next on the Hit List.

And the other nation to stop trading using dollars (in *all* commodoties) is.... (drumroll).... North Korea - Axis of Evil member number 3.

Of course, North Korea made the axis of evil list because of its nuclear ambitions right ? - helped in some small part by ABB winning the contract to supply them with Technology for their nuclear power stations....

Of course the American Defense secretary at the time Donald Rumsfeld would have known about this being that he was also on the board of ABB at the time.... Aint life peculiar.

any suspicions drawn from these facts should of course be denounced as conspiracy theories immediately and discarded.
