The U.S. argument that the fuel supply assurances are not legally binding since the 123 Agreement is a "framework agreement" is patently false. Though the agreement is a 'framework' whose implementation requires the drafting of commercial contracts with U.S. firms, this does not rob the commitments of their legal nature.

"Humans have spent 99 percent of our developmental time in the wild kingdom, which tutored us in what Rob Kall calls bottom-up values?small, local, interdependent, respectful, egalitarian and decentralized -- and which the world desperately needs in order to balance out some of the darker impulses of top-down values. His faith that bottom-up values represent a critical re-balancing act for humanity, if not an outright better mousetrap, is compelling and hard-won, and I offer him a high-five for his courageous inquiry into the deep wisdom inherent in our age-old intimacy with natural rhythms, native intelligences, and interconnectedness."
