US announces new sanctions targeting Iran’s drone program
|
[Rudaw] The United States on Friday announced sanctions targeting Iran’s drone program, which it said has been used to attack American forces and partners in the Middle East, including Iraq. The move comes days after Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
indicated it is ready to resume nuclear talks in Vienna.
"Iran’s proliferation of UAVs [unmanned aerial vehicles] across the region threatens international peace and stability. Iran and its proxy bandidos Lions of Islam have used UAVs to attack U.S. forces, our partners, and international shipping," said Deputy Secretary of the Treasury Wally Adeyemo.
The Treasury sanctioned companies and individuals it said supported the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) drone programs and designated Saeed Aghajani who commands the IRGC’s drone force.
The IRGC’s elite Quds Forces "has used and proliferated lethal UAVs for use by Iran-supported groups, including Hizballah, HAMAS, Kata’ib Hizballah, and the Iran's Houthi sock puppets
 ...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth . Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him...
s," stated the Treasury. "Lethal UAVs have been used in attacks on international shipping and on U.S. forces."
US interests in Iraq and Syria have come under attack or threat of attack by drones at least 12 times in 2021, most recently at al-Tanf base in southern Syria, according to data compiled by Rudaw English. Iraqi militias with the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) backed by Iran are widely blamed. In June, drones were front and centre at a PMF military parade.
The militias demand the withdrawal of American troops from Iraq and stepped up their attacks after the US assassinated Iranian General Qasem Soleimani and PMF commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis in Baghdad in January 2020. The US has agreed to pull out its combat troops by the end of the year as it focuses on training and advising Iraqi forces in the fight against the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
group (ISIS).
The new sanctions come as Iran is under pressure to return to delayed nuclear talks. Tehran’s top nuclear negotiator this week said Iran would resume talks with six world powers by the end of November. Negotiations were suspended in June to allow for a transition of power after elections in Iran.
Reporting on the announcement of the sanctions, IRGC-linked Tasnim news said the White House was expected to refrain from introducing new measures as a sign of goodwill.
