Breaking Intelligence Report: Obama to Drop Sanctions On Iran
Gateway Pundit ^ | 12 Feb 09 | Unknown

The report would probably seem preposterous if it weren't for the fact that Team Obama already waived sanctions on Syria and is considering opening travel to Cuba.

It's like watching Carter on Speed.

This latest news comes from the February 18, 2009 edition of Geostrategy Direct (subscribers only):

The officials said the new Obama administration of has decided to end sanctions against Iranian government agencies or companies that aid Teheran's missile and nuclear program. The officials said Israel has been informed of the new U.S. policy.

"We were told that sanctions do not help the new U.S. policy of dialogue with Iran," an official said.

Well, the sooner Iran nukes someone the sooner we can get WW III underway and then over with. I guess that’s the logic.

U.S. policy of dialogue with Iran,"

That should read "the new US policy of surrender to Iran".

I’ll wait until it’s official before I burst a blood vessel, but if true, this is essentially opening negotiation with a surrender and working from there.

Iran has murdered Americans for decades.
They also plotted the WTC-1 bombing

Did Iran achieve some special number yielding an Obama-Terror'pardon'?
Will Iran normalization occur on the Anniversary of their bombing the WTC?

Carter will soon appear competent v. Hussein. Our boy-king is in way over his head, the peter principle in action. Iran will see this move as weakness and exploit it.

Has Obama forgotten the takeover of our Embassy in 1979 and the holding of our diplomats for 444 days? Right now, we hold billions of Iranian assets frozen in our banks. I guess Obama will release the money. These are the carrots he is talking about. There are no sticks.

Obama is legitimizing the Iranian regime instead of trying to remove it. There will be no end to the WOT until the Iranian regime is overturned.

Well I guess GE can now operate freely in Iran instead of having to hide it. Disgusting.

I thought Iran declared war upon the United States.
Did the US just surrender to Iran?

0 will apologize for US tyranny that offended Iran and Cuba. He’s sorry, so sorry, and he really wants to make things better for us all.

Barry has had his mind filled with Marxist trash for most of his life, and he is completely predictable.
