US Official Says Iran is 'Central Banker of Terror' |
2006-08-29 |
![]() Levey - the U.S. Under-Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorism - spoke as Iran faces a Thursday, August 31 U.N. deadline to stop enriching uranium or face possible sanctions. Separately, the United States confirmed it will issue a visa to former Iranian President Mohammad Khatami, who has been invited to speak next month at a multi-faith seminar in Washington. Khatami, considered a moderate among Iranian religious leaders, had advocated dialogue with the U.S. during his term in office, which ended last year. |

#3 Not because it's a secret (or not), but preparing the ground to announce that any banks that deal with Iran will be frozen out of the US banking system, like was done to North Korea and post-Hamas Palestinian Authority. We already don't deal with them directly, if I recall correctly, but the next step would make it difficult (though not impossible) for them to find any banks that would so much as allow themselves to be used to transfer funds. |
