REUTERS---  Yesterday, Iran's Imam Council issued a Fatwah against Airbus and it's holdings in response to stepped up European concern and official protests centered on Irans Nuclear Programs. "Europeans need to know that if they refuse to follow Americas example and bury their heads in the sand we will retaliate."

In related news, sales of gardening implements and textiles on the continent have gone up for the second straight day with retail and warehousing operations being taxed by the sudden demand on shovels and white sheets.

I'd say BAe Systems is in trouble.

It's not a wonder.. if they lose their fight, then people under 26 years old can be fired at will within 2 year trial period. As if an employer can't get to know an employee in 6 months?
