US Imposes Banking Sanctions on Iran By VOA News 06 November 2008
The U.S. Treasury has moved to further restrict Iran's access to the U.S.
financial system, by banning certain money transfers.
The Treasury Department announced on Thursday that it will revoke Iran's so-
called "U-Turn" license, which currently allows transfers to briefly enter
the United States before being sent to offshore banks.
Until Thursday, U.S. banks were allowed to process certain money transfers
for Iranian banks and other Iranian customers as long as the payments were
initiated by and ended up in offshore non-U.S. and non-Iranian banks.
U.S. officials say the ban is aimed at increasing financial pressure on Iran
to end alleged support of terrorist groups and nuclear proliferation.
Iran is under three sets of international sanctions. It has been accused by
several Western countries of seeking nuclear weapons. Tehran says its nuclear
program is solely for peaceful purposes.
Separately on Thursday, Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni said any U.S.
talks with Iran may be seen as a sign of weakness.
The statement was Israel first official note of caution over Barack Obama's
election as U.S. president. Mr. Obama said during the campaign he would be
willing to hold talks with Iranian leaders.
The Israeli government fears it could be the target of an attack by strongly
anti-Israeli Iran.
In a highly unusual move, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad - one of
Washington's harshest critics - congratulated Mr. Obama on his victory. He
said he hopes the U.S. president-elect will change American policy, which he
described as arrogant.

I'm 1000% for imposing sanctions on Israel.
A complete sea, air and land blockade is in order.
Aim our nukes at Israel, have all our allies who have nukes point them at
Israel, then FORCE Israel to disarm.
All dual citizens removed from any and all US gov't positions (including
public schools, govt media)...
Life inprisonment for some of them: Doug Feith and the like...
A long stay in Guantanamo for others like Chertoff...
Shutdown ADL, AIPAC, Weaselthal...
Confiscation of all their assets...
Give all the heads of these organizations the "perp walk" on tv...
Restructuring of the Federal Reserve/Money/Debt system...
We *can* win the war on terror.
What was your question again?
Oh. Banking sanctions against Iran?
I don't think that's necessary or helpful.
