    DIRTY MONEY: U.S. Sanctions Iran’s Central Bank Governor, Has Hezbollah Ties.

    The Treasury Department said that Valiollah Seif, the governor of the Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran, sent the funds to Hezbollah through an Iraqi bank, the al-Bilad Islamic Bank. The funds were sent on behalf of Iran’s Quds Force, an Iranian paramilitary organization fighting in Syria along with Hezbollah to support President Bashar al-Assad.

    The sanctions are part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to preclude the Quds Force from using the international banking system.

    Iran has long been involved in the Syria conflict and has supplied missiles and other weapons to Hezbollah, its proxy in the region. The Trump administration is pressuring Iran to curtail that support. But it has stopped short of taking military action against Iranian forces and Iranian-backed militias in Syria while defending Israel’s military strikes there.

    In the sanctions announced Tuesday, Mr. Seif and Ali Tarzali, the assistant director of the international department at the bank, were named as “specially designated global terrorists.”

    The Mullahs Regime is both a criminal and terrorist organization.

    I'm sure there is a point there somewhere, but the Iran deal had nothing to do with Iran being tied to Hezbollah or Syria.

    Well, except that they are terrorist scum.

    Two senior Iranian bank officials are accused of funneling millions of dollars to militant group

    WASHINGTON—The Treasury Department imposed sanctions Tuesday on the governor of Iran’s central bank and another senior bank official for funneling millions of dollars to Hezbollah, the Lebanese militia terror group.

    Valiollah Seif, the governor of the Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran, sent the funds to Hezbollah through an Iraqi bank, the al-Bilad Islamic Bank. The funds were sent on behalf of Iran’s Quds Force.

    I don't think that was in the Iran deal either.

    Sanction US for sending 30 billion in aid to Israel.
    The equipment was used to bomb the Syrian government and their Iranian allies.

    It all depends on how you look at it.

    With the lefties is always bullshit under the crust. Climate Change isn't about climate at all.
