US sanctions network smuggling American tech to Iran’s central bank
[IsraelTimes] The US Treasury Department unveils sanctions against a network of companies and individuals for facilitating illegal technology transfers from dozens of US firms to Iranian entities, including the country’s central bank.

The sanctions relate to Informatics Services Corporation (ISC), the technology arm of the Central Bank of 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...
(CBI), the Treasury Department says in a statement.

It also sanctions a number of alleged ISC subsidiaries and front companies based in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire...
and the United Arab Emirates, and three individuals allegedly linked to them including Pouria Mirdamadi, a French-Iranian dual national.

Brian Nelson, the US Treasury under-secretary for terrorism and financial intelligence, says the CBI "has played a critical role" in providing financial support to Leb
...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
’s Hezbollah and the foreign arm of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, known as the Quds Force.

"The United States will continue to use all available means to disrupt the Iranian regime’s illicit attempts to procure sensitive US technology and critical inputs," he says in a statement.

The Treasury’s move freezes any US assets associated with the sanctioned individuals and entities, and generally prohibits Americans from doing business with them.
