Iran Finds ‘One of the Biggest’ Gas Fields in Mideast
Iran discovered “one of the biggest natural gas fields in the Middle East,” with reserves comparable to those of the South Pars field, Mehr reported, citing an industry official.
The gas was found in southwestern Khuzestan province at a deposit already known to contain crude oil, said National Iranian Oil Co. Director for Exploration Mahmoud Mohaddes, according to the state-run news agency. A 5000-meter (16,400- foot) well will be drilled “soon” to collect further information, he said.
South Pars, the world’s largest proved gas deposit, is shared between Iran and Qatar. Iran holds the world’s second- largest gas reserves, with 29.6 trillion cubic meters, according to the BP Statistical Review of World Energy in June 2011. Russia has the biggest reserves of the fuel, BP data show.

Now you know the third reason the Empire wants to take Iran…
“Let the clone (resource) wars begin” said the evil Emperor (Obama) to his trusted Sith, Darth Vader (Netanyahu).

Netanyahu is the emperor and Obama his lackey, waiting for Netanyahu to tell him what to do. If you do not organize resistance they will take over your country and turn it into the next USSR.
It looks like there will be a shift from oil towards gas, so we can party a few decades longer. Hopefully the transition from oil to gas causes enough trouble that we finally take the energy problems seriously.

That’s the difference between oil and gas… The ten largest oil fields were discovered more than 40 years ago, but large gas fields are discovered today.

Arthur, you may be correct about Obama/Netanyahu although, I think they are not the real Emperor, just the lackeys.
I don’t think the world will avoid war for that long. I think it may happen this year…or next at the latest. The world is crumbling fast and we will soon not have the resources, financial and energy, to go to war with the world and that is what is in store…possibly even nuclear exchanges. Wait and see.
