US Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew said the economic sanctions against
Iran will work, because “the alternatives are worse.”
“It would be the best thing for Iran and the best thing for the world
if economic sanctions worked because the alternatives are worse for Iran and
for the world,” Lew said. “I don’t think any (U.S.) president should make the
decision about whether or not to go beyond the sanctions without having
exhausted the tools available,” he added. (AFP, 1 July)
Lew made the comments on Sunday at a conference in Aspen, Colorado. He
called the sanctions the “toughest sanctions in history.”
“We have not seen the kind of slippage in international support for
sanctions that some people have speculated about.”

ReplyDeletemaking iran alittle unease but really do not work.
The USA donot have the power like 1980s--1900s globalization and new world player are ran best friend
Good it will force Iran to go and test a nuclear bomb and end all these BS
ReplyDeleteand that will end the Iranian military.
DeleteYeah,just like it ended the north korean or israeli or pakistani militaries,you really shouldnt post if you`re only going to make a fool of yourself
DeleteAnon 8:51 PM, zionists like to dream. The fact is, nuclear weapons are a deterrent to the USA.
DeleteZionists like Jacob Lew have been dictating US policy failures vis a vis Iran and as long as this clique is in power US policy will not be changed and remain hostile to Iran. US is now even in a mess with EU over the stasi snooping keystone cops police state anyway and is largely irrelevant in global affairs. When Russia under ex-KGB colonel Putin offers asylum to US whistle blower Snowden, then you know that US really stinks to high heavens. America is now the global pariah and a laughing stock. As most of the grown-up have known all along the US "intelligence" is an oxymoron and the Zionist hijacked foreign policy is no exception.
ReplyDeleteObama's decision to put Israeli sympathisers in charge of managing Iran's sanction is rotten to the core. For some of these guys allegiance to US is second to Israel.
ReplyDeletesuch a shame that the comments here reflect the base ignorance and bigotry that is far too prevalent in the defenders of the regime imposed by the quite vile, bigoted creep Khomeini.
