 The focus certainly shifted as the U.S. has been completely engrossed with the current financial crisis as well as the Presidential Election.  A few months back, prior to the Russo-Georgian War, the U.S. was trying to impose additional sactions on Iran for their continued nuclear initiative.  Unfortunately, the U.S. failed to receive the buy-in from both Russia and China.  Now, the U.S. must pick up where they left off and decide how to proceed. 

Check out this recent article entitled, “Iran Returns to the Global Stage” posted by George Friedman from Stratfor.com, which talks about the current situation in greater detail.
