Resource ripples from Iran

I was worried that the amount of space on this blog dedicated to Iran was beyond its original intended scope, but never fear, resource implications are seldom far away... might Uganda's recent energy deal with Iran be put in jeopardy?

I think world crude markets have noticed too but I try not to pay too much attention to their day-to-day fluctuations.

P.S. For anyone interested in a serious exploration of the resource curse, I highly recommend "Escaping the Resource Curse" - Stiglitz and Sachs edit a collection of strong essays on a variety of relevant topics from a variety of perspectives (academia, business, law, government, etc.).
