US Senate votes 94-0 to expand sanctions on Iran energy, shipping | |
2012-12-01 | |
[Ynet] The US Senate resoundingly approved new sanctions on trade with Iran's energy, port, shipping and ship-building sectors on Friday, its latest effort to ratchet up economic pressure on Tehran over its nuclear program. Senators voted 94-0 to make the new sanctions part of an annual defense policy bill. The defense bill must still be approved by the Senate and House of Representatives before it would be given to President Barack Obama They get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them... to sign into law.

#4 That's so all those dildo-heads can point the finger at each other when Iran lights off a nuke in their first test. |

#1 US SENATE-CRITTERS ... versus * IIRC DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > POTUS OBAMA GIVES PAKISTAN [indirect]PERMISSION TO ATTACK THE USA, vee the Bammer's claim that any each + all sovereign nations in the world have the right to protect or defend themselves. Lest we fergit, thats NUKE-ARMED PAKISTAN. Pragmatically, despite the Bammer's new pro-UNIAEA March 2013 deadline for Iran I still anticipate the latter to stay on the strategic defensive, i.e. IN IRAN'S VIEW IT IS NOT FOR IT TO STOP ITS OWN NUCPROGS BUT FOR THE US TO DE FACTO STRIKE + INVADE IRAN ALA MAJOR GROUND WAR. IMO more bad or troubling news for the US Navy-DOD, USFK + USFJ, + USS GEORGE WASHINGTON CVN/CVBG over by the Koreas + Japan. |
