I said in the Middle East there have been purchases of $100 billion of weapons in the last three years, which seem to be well designed for dealing with Iran.
Iran has been accused by the nine states and Israel of providing several hundred million dollars a year to Hamas and Hezbollah. We have powerful supporting evidence on this from the Egyptian government in the last two weeks, which intercepted a number of Hezbollah operatives who were bringing arms and money into Hamas, and indeed Hezbollah has confirmed that's what they were doing. Given the magnitudes involved in what the Egyptians have discovered, those Israeli and American estimates look quite credible these days.
Let me say a word about the ordinary citizens of Iran. The regime has been quite successful at applying its Chinese model, namely that it lets its citizens do what they want in the space of three metres around them in return for people doing nothing outside that three-metre space. Therefore, there's a lot more opportunity for people in Iran to party and use intoxicants of various sorts than there used to be, but there's a lot more human rights abuses and violations if anyone tries to organize even the most innocuous things such as helping prostitutes and AIDS victims.
