Note the recent down turn in the price of oil has caused great problems with the Iranian economy since they depend heavily on their oil revenues.
Do you think that will make the Iranians desperate and maybe shoot their missiles at Israel? |

Maybe...that's a dangerous game. The probability of Israeli "overresponding" is pretty good, so it's in Iran's interest to create turmoil (and thus concern over oil supplies to drive up the market) rather than open war....Iran's got an internal dissent problem, high inflation, and fairly high unemployment...domestically, it's a hot bed for revolt.
