Life at the I-House

Global Hour is a weekly program of informal discussion that covers a wide range of topics. It is committed to facilitating the exchange of views and perspectives within a relaxed setting, while engaging important issues that highlight global and human conditions.

This week in Global Hour we will take a look at the current situation with Iran. A couple of interesting stories have been in the press lately.

Some Points and Questions to Ponder:

1. It appears the US has agreed to sit at a regional conference called by Iraq and attended by Syria and Iran. Could this signal a change in US policy?

2. There may be signs that President Ahmadinejad may have been weakened by internal strife. Economy not growing fast enough.

3. China has huge contracts for natural gas to be imported from Iran. China’s exports to Iran have grown dramatically.

4. Russia is a major exporter to Iran.

5. Can Iran be trusted on: Being a regional player that plays fair? Keeping its word on nuclear weapons?
