Trump Brings Down Sanctions on Iran

[Public Domain]

President Trump has officially rolled out sanctions against Iran, in a reversal from President Obama’s surrender to the barbaric regime. The Daily Caller reports:

The Trump administration said it has taken its final steps to remove the United States from the 2015 Iran nuclear agreement.

On Monday, the administration said it restored previously lifted sanctions on Iranian banking, shipping and energy. Officials announced sanctions on 50 Iranian banks, 200 individuals and ships, an Iranian airline and more than 65 airplanes in what the Treasury Department said is its “largest ever single-day action targeting Iran.”

“The Iranian regime has a choice: It can either do a 180-degree turn from its outlaw course of action and act like a normal country, or it can see its economy crumble,” said Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. “I promise you that doing business with Iran in defiance of our sanctions will ultimately be a much more painful business decision.”

“We are at an economic war situation. We are standing up to a bullying enemy,” said Iranian President Hassan Rouhani. “Yesterday, Saddam was in front us, today Trump is front of us. There is no difference. We must resist and win.”

Instead of simply targeting Iran, the US will now punish other states who do business with them, in a effort to force countries to pick a side. Will they chose freedom or Shariah terrorism?

Oh, poor little sissy girls in Iran. “Yesterday Saddam was in front of us, today…”
Apparently you Iranians have forgotten what happened to Saddam. YOU, will be even easier for us to deal with.

You are absolutely correct to ask that question. The democrat communist party aligns itself with any and all other anti-American individuals, organizations and countries. Soros is but a single such individual. Why do we allow people and groups whose sole purpose is to overthrow our form of government to exist on US soil?? Every one of them should be charged with sedition and be kicked out of America. They are at war with US so we should treat them accordingly.

That is what the UN was originally supposed to be about. Instead the UN has turned into a Leftist army. Name one thing the UN has ever done to improve the status of the world. The US pays the bulk of the $$$ that the UN uses to pay it’s members to work against the US.

islan is not just a religion it is a way of life. Their so called holy book does not just suggest how to live a good life it tell them every think they must think, do and say. islan is far from the religion of peace that obama and his Socialist Muslim Regime continuously told us. They seek to destroy our way of life and our beliefs. I was recently corrected by some muslim that their holy book does not say to convert , enslave or kill infidenl. What it says is they a good muslim will convert, enslave or kill Idolators, which means any form of statue or even a symbol that represents God or any Saints. This pretty much includes everyone but them.
I know someone is going to comment that the Catholic religion persecuted and even killed people who would not convert to Catholicism and they would be right, but it does not happen today in our modern world. muslims are the only relibion that still kills people because of their religion. Not only their religion but if you are not of the particular sect the opposing sect will kill you. So they don’t even like each other. I don’t care what your religion is or for that matter if you even have a religion but don’t tell me that I must believe the way you do or you will kill me. You want to be a muslim that is fine but you come to this country you obey our laws, you religious laws do not superseded the laws of this land.

Sanctions on, sanctions off, have a deal, don’t have a deal, try to buy friendship being Mr. Nice Guy and they laugh at us after they get goodies.

It is time to set a date conform or meet Allah face to face. President Trump may be just the guy to do it.

As far as Our so called allies stand with us completely or defend yourselves when Iran turns in you

Hallelujah! Time to hit them where it hurts! No doubt, Hussein Obama afforded Iran free reign to continue being the largest sponsor of terror IN THE WORLD! Hussein aided Iran but now, WE HAVE A REAL COMMANDER IN CHIEF! Our Pres., Pres Trump, he rocks it, refuses to back down & refuses to kiss the butts of those who hate our guts.

The left has PROVEN they CAN NOT be trusted with the power they desperately CRAVE!
