Iran Can't Pay Islamic Terrorists After Trump's Sanctions

Under Obama, Americans were struggling to find work while he illegally shipped billions of dollars in taxpayer money to the Islamic terrorists of Iran. Under Trump, the terrorists are losing their jobs while Americans are gaining them.

Since President Trump introduced sweeping new restrictions on trade with Iran last year, raising tensions with Tehran that reached a crescendo in recent days, Iran’s ability to finance allies such as Hezbollah has been curtailed. Hezbollah, the best funded and most senior of Tehran’s proxies, has seen a sharp fall in its revenue and is being forced to make draconian cuts to its spending, according to Hezbollah officials, members and supporters.

Fighters are being furloughed or assigned to the reserves, where they receive lower salaries or no pay at all, said a Hezbollah employee with one of the group’s administrative units. Many of them are being withdrawn from Syria, where the militia has played an instrumental role in fighting on behalf of President Bashar al-Assad and ensuring his survival.

Programs on Hezbollah’s television station Al-Manar have been canceled and their staff laid off, according to another Hezbollah insider.

The Trump Administration’s policy strategy on defense is as good as it could be so far. Perfect.

Westerners frequently miss that upraised index finger as the Islamic supremacist sign that it is.

Indeed. And that wasn't the only "finger-symbol" Obama gave us.

Or this one, from his debates with Hillary in 2008:

Lack of funds is part of the reason for Iran’s pinprick strategy ... doing some damage but not enough to warrant a war.

That top picture reveals the malevolence that is Barry Soetoro/Barack Hussein Obama or whatever his real name is.

The exportation of revolution has proven time and again to be a ruinously expensive business. Iran has been financing a Hezbollah welfare state in addition. Now, well, it’s the equivalent of what will happen in the U.S. when the EBT cards are zeroed out. War toys turn out to be inedible.

A talking point for Dems, Trump is putting people out of work! No need to mention they're terrorists. As long as they're attacking Jews it wouldn't matter to a large component of their supporters.

Yeah, and the other day at his MAGA rally in PA, people were dropping like flies, and they didn’t have insurance! No doubt the doctor who “volunteered” to revive them will hit them with a big bill!/s

This is such positive news for the President, for his administration, for his advisors and for our country that I can't wait to see it as the prime topic for discussion all day today and tomorrow on CNN, PMSNBC, etc.
