Pakistanis, Iranians Cozy Up

The anti-American feelings Pakistan has, coupled with Iran’s concerns over U.S. and Israeli intentions to bomb its nuclear facilities, have brought Islamabad and Tehran closer together regarding a 1,300-mile pipeline to carry natural gas from Iran, according to a report in Joseph Farah’s G2 Bulletin.

The deal is going forward despite opposition from Washington, which still hasn’t apologized as the Pakistanis have demanded for the accidental killing of 24 Pakistani guards along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border last November.

Pakistan is proceeding with plans for the pipeline to bring some 750 million cubic feet of gas a day from a massive offshore South Pars field in the Persian Gulf for the next 25 years.
