How's That Whole "Isolate Iran" Thing Working Out?

If you're Pakistan, it's working out just fine.

Iran has finalized a US$7 billion gas pipeline deal to export natural gas to Pakistan. The two countries on Sunday formally signed an export contract that commits the Islamic republic to supplying its eastern neighbor with natural gas from 2014.

The Iran-Pakistan (IP) pipeline, which has been talked about for 17 years, will connect Iran's South Pars gas field with Pakistan's southern Balochistan and Sindh provinces and will be crucial in Pakistan's attempts to ease countrywide electricity shortages.
