Iran fires rockets at Iraq base hosting American troops

Another clever retort.
Meh

 

Yes, our allies. And we made him a dictator in 1953.......like I said.

 

No he was already in power in 1953. Mossadegh attempted a coup and failed.

 

Nothing like the blame America crowd claiming America is responsible for Iran's 4 decades of shenanigans in the ME.

 

The UN does not. There is no travel ban on Iran from the UN and no sanctions against Iran from the UN. Would be unlikely since China, Russia and France would need to agree and vote for it.

So show me the resolution number where the UN put travel bans and sanctions on Iran. Again, no american ************, hard facts.

The only sanctions against Iran from the UN was United Nations Security Council Resolution 1737. Those were lifted at 16th January 2016.

There currently are no UN sanctions against Iran.

Why do you make stuff up?

 

UN sanctions against Iran[edit]
Main articles: List of United Nations resolutions concerning Iran, Iran nuclear deal framework, and Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action
The UN Security Council passed a number of resolutions imposing sanctions on Iran, following the report by the International Atomic Energy Agency Board of Governors regarding Iran's non-compliance with its safeguards agreement and the Board's finding that Iran's nuclear activities raised questions within the competency of the Security Council. Sanctions were first imposed when Iran rejected the Security Council's demand that Iran suspend all enrichment-related and reprocessing activities. Sanctions will be lifted when Iran meets those demands and fulfills the requirements of the IAEA Board of Governors. Most UN sanctions were lifted 16 January 2016, following the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.

• United Nations Security Council Resolution 1696 – passed on 31 July 2006. Demanded that Iran suspend all enrichment-related and reprocessing activities and threatened sanctions.[25]
• United Nations Security Council Resolution 1737 – passed on 23 December 2006 in response to the proliferation risks presented by the Iranian nuclear program and, in this context, by Iran's continuing failure to meet the requirements of the International Atomic Energy Agency Board of Governors and to comply with the provisions of Security Council resolution 1696 (2006).[26] Made mandatory for Iran to suspend enrichment-related and reprocessing activities and cooperate with the IAEA, imposed sanctions banning the supply of nuclear-related materials and technology, and froze the assets of key individuals and companies related to the program.
• United Nations Security Council Resolution 1747 – passed on 24 March 2007. Imposed an arms embargo and expanded the freeze on Iranian assets.
• United Nations Security Council Resolution 1803 – passed on 3 March 2008. Extended the asset freezes and called upon states to monitor the activities of Iranian banks, inspect Iranian ships and aircraft, and to monitor the movement of individuals involved with the program through their territory.
• United Nations Security Council Resolution 1835 – Passed in 2008.
• United Nations Security Council Resolution 1929 – passed on 9 June 2010. Banned Iran from participating in any activities related to ballistic missiles, tightened the arms embargo, travel bans on individuals involved with the program, froze the funds and assets of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines, and recommended that states inspect Iranian cargo, prohibit the servicing of Iranian vessels involved in prohibited activities, prevent the provision of financial services used for sensitive nuclear activities, closely watch Iranian individuals and entities when dealing with them, prohibit the opening of Iranian banks on their territory and prevent Iranian banks from entering into relationship with their banks if it might contribute to the nuclear program, and prevent financial institutions operating in their territory from opening offices and accounts in Iran.
• United Nations Security Council Resolution 1984 – passed on 9 June 2011. This resolution extended the mandate of the panel of experts that supports the Iran Sanctions Committee for one year.
• United Nations Security Council Resolution 2049 – passed on 7 June 2012. Renewed the mandate of the Iran Sanctions Committee's Panel of Experts for 13 months.
• United Nations Security Council Resolution 2231 – passed on 20 July 2015. Sets out a schedule for suspending and eventually lifting UN sanctions, with provisions to reimpose UN sanctions in case of non-performance by Iran, in accordance with the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.

The UN sanctions against Iran do not include oil exports from Iran.[27] As of 2019, an estimated one third of all oil traded at sea passes through the Strait of Hormuz. In August 2018, EU High Representative Mogherini, speaking at a briefing with New Zealand's Foreign Minister Winston Peters, challenged U.S. sanctions on Iran, stating that the EU are encouraging small and medium size enterprises in particular to increase business with and in Iran as part of something that is for the EU a "Security Priority".[28][29]

In September 2019, the US government announced, unilaterally, that it would begin to sanction certain Chinese entities that imported oil from Iran.[30]

Sanctions by sector and source[31]
Sectors U.S. (1995– ) E.U. (2007– ) U.N. (2006–16)
Missile/arms industry Restricted Restricted Removed
Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Restricted Restricted Removed
Nuclear industry Restricted Restricted Removed
Energy/petroleum industry Restricted Restricted Removed
Banking Restricted Restricted Removed
Central Bank of Iran Restricted Restricted Removed
Shipping industry Restricted Restricted Removed
International trade Restricted Restricted Removed
Insurance Restricted Restricted Removed
Foreign firms dealing with Iran Restricted
The European Union has imposed restrictions on cooperation with Iran in foreign trade, financial services, energy sectors and technologies, and banned the provision of insurance and reinsurance by insurers in member states to Iran and Iranian-owned companies.[32] On 23 January 2012, the EU agreed to an oil embargo on Iran, effective from July, and to freeze the assets of Iran's central bank.[33] The next month, Iran symbolically pre-empted the embargo by ceasing sales to Britain and France (both countries had already almost eliminated their reliance on Iranian oil, and Europe as a whole had nearly halved its Iranian imports), though some Iranian politicians called for an immediate sales halt to all EU states, so as to hurt countries like Greece, Spain and Italy who were yet to find alternative sources.[34][35]

On 17 March 2012, all Iranian banks identified as institutions in breach of EU sanctions were disconnected from the SWIFT, the world's hub of electronic financial transactions.[36] On 10 November 2018 Gottfried Leibbrandt, chief executive of SWIFT said in Belgium that some banks in Iran would be disconnected from this financial messaging service.[37]

One side effect of the sanctions is that the global shipping insurers based in London are unable to provide cover for items as far afield as Japanese shipments of Iranian liquefied petroleum gas to South Korea.[38]

• Beijing has tried to accommodate US concerns about Iran. It has not developed trade and investment positions there as rapidly as it might have, and has shifted some Iran-related transactional flows into Renminbi to help the Obama administration avoid sanctioning Chinese banks (similarly, India now pays for some Iranian oil imports in rupees).[39][40]
• Australia has imposed financial sanctions and travel bans on individuals and entities involved in Iran's nuclear and missile programs or assist Iran in violating sanctions, and an arms embargo.[41]
• Canada imposed a ban on dealing in the property of designated Iranian nationals, a complete arms embargo, oil-refining equipment, items that could contribute to the Iranian nuclear program, the establishment of an Iranian financial institution, branch, subsidiary, or office in Canada or a Canadian one in Iran, investment in the Iranian oil and gas sector, relationships with Iranian banks, purchasing debt from the Iranian government, or providing a ship or services to Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines, but allows the Foreign Minister to issue a permit to carry out a specified prohibited activity or transaction.[42]
• India enacted a ban on the export of all items, materials, equipment, goods, and technology that could contribute to Iran's nuclear program.[43] In 2012, the country said it was against expanding its sanctions.[44] India imports 12 percent of its oil from Iran and cannot do without it,[45] and the country plans to send a "huge delegation" to Iran in mid-March 2012 to further bilateral economic ties.[46][47] In July 2012, India has not approved the necessary insurance for Iranian ships hit by U.S. sanctions, effectively barring them from entering Indian waters.[48]
• Israel banned business with or unauthorized travel to Iran under a law banning ties with enemy states.[49] Israel has also enacted legislation that penalizes any companies that violate international sanctions.[50] Following reports of covert Israeli-Iranian trade and after the US sanctioned an Israeli company for ties with Iran, Israel imposed a series of administrative and regulatory measures to prevent Israeli companies from trading with Iran, and announced the establishment of a national directorate to implement the sanctions.[51]
• Japan imposed a ban on transactions with some Iranian banks, investments with the Iranian energy sector, and asset freezes against individuals and entities involved with Iran's nuclear program.[52] In January 2012, the second-biggest customer for Iranian oil announced it would take "concrete steps" to reduce its 10% oil dependency on Iran.[53]
• South Korea imposed sanctions on 126 Iranian individuals and companies.[54] Japan and South Korea together account for 26% of Iran's oil exports.[55]
• Switzerland banned the sale of arms and dual-use items to Iran, and of products that could be used in the Iranian oil and gas sector, financing this sector, and restrictions on financial services.[56]
• The United States has imposed an arms ban and an almost total economic embargo on Iran, which includes sanctions on companies doing business with Iran, a ban on all Iranian-origin imports, sanctions on Iranian financial institutions, and an almost total ban on selling aircraft or repair parts to Iranian aviation companies. A license from the Treasury Department is required to do business with Iran. In June 2011, the United States imposed sanctions against Iran Air and Tidewater Middle East Co. (which runs seven Iranian ports), stating that Iran Air had provided material support to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which is already subject to UN sanctions, that Tidewater Middle East is owned by the IRGC, and that both have been involved in activities including illegal weapons transportation.[57] The U.S. has also begun to designate a number of senior Iranian officials under the Iranian Human Rights Abuses Sanctions Regulations. On 14 December 2011, the U.S. Department of Treasury designated Hassan Firouzabadi and Abdollah Araqi under this sanctions program.[58] In February 2012 the US froze all property of the Central Bank of Iran and other Iranian financial institutions, as well as that of the Iranian government, within the United States.[59] The American view is that sanctions should target Iran's energy sector that provides about 80% of government revenues, and try to isolate Iran from the international financial system.[60] On 6 February 2013 the United States government blacklisted major Iranian electronics producers, Internet policing agencies, and the state broadcasting authority, in an effort to lessen restrictions of access to information for the general public. The sanctions were imposed to target the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting, which is responsible for broadcast policy in Iran and oversees production of Iranian television and radio channels. Also targeted were the "Iranian Cyber Police" and the "Communications Regulatory Authority" which the Treasury Department describes as authorities created three years ago to filter Web sites and monitor Internet behavior while blocking Web sites deemed objectionable by the Iranian government. Currently, under American sanctions laws, any United States property held by blacklisted companies and individuals is impounded, and are prohibited from engaging in any transactions with American citizens.[61] In January 2015, the U.S. Senate Banking Committee advanced "a bill that would toughen sanctions on Iran if international negotiators fail to reach an agreement on Tehran's nuclear program by the end of June."[62] On 5 November 2018, the United States government reinstated all sanctions against Iran. These sanctions had been previously lifted in accordance to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.[63] On June 24, 2019 the Trump Administration announced further sanctions on Iran in response to a downing of a U.S. drone.[64]
• On 16 April 2019, a day after United States designated Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) as a Foreign Terrorist Organizations, the social media platform Instagram blocked the accounts of the IRGC, the Quds Force, its commander Qasem Soleimani, and three other IRGC commanders.[65]

The US urged the United Nations Tuesday to extend an arms embargo on Tehran that is due to expire next year as part of the embattled Iran nuclear deal.

Why do you deny facts? OH that's right you support the leading state sponsor of terrorism.

 

It was quite clear but apparently did not meet your MSNBC narrative.

 

Again, US urges...doesnt mean UN does.

So tell me which travel bans are right now by UN law against iranian nationals? Zero

And i ask again, on what numbers is your leading sponsor of terrorism based on.

Hard numbers, im German not an american. We are rationalists and only hard facts count here.

What makes Iran a bigger sponsor for terrorism than Saudi Arabia?

Bigger means 2>1. Its always based on numbers. Show me the numbers this is based on.

 

So you'd like me to document the results of leftist governments for you then?

It's pretty easy if you'd like to see it. Of course you have no interest in their bloodthirsty history.

This is why the left has to fake hate crimes. It's necessary for them to manufacture their view of the world, since it doesn't exist as they imagine.

 

Sure. The country that turns off the internet so they can kill 1500 protesters in two days is very welcoming.

 

Trust me we understand the Germans' don't care about murdering jews.

 

Do you care about murdering native americans? Or middle easterners? Or people from philippines? Or Vietnam? Hey when will you pay compensation to Vietnam for Agent Orange?

 

The ban is IN effect the urging is to continue it. Yes I know you are a German who supports the radical Islamic Jihadist who rule Iran and are the leading supporters of terrorism in the world and would love to see them defeat the US and the rest of western society.

 

I give a **** about islam. I actually hate islam. The thing is, i hate double standards and moronic arguments even more. Your country supports one of the most vile islamic jihadi regimes on this planet, Saudi Arabia. As long this continues you have no right to blame Iran for islamic jihadis. Its that simple.

Now again: on what numbers is your leading sponsor of terrorism based on.

Hard numbers, im German not an american. We are rationalists and only hard facts count here.

What makes Iran a bigger sponsor for terrorism than Saudi Arabia?

Bigger means 2>1. Its always based on numbers. Show me the numbers this is based on.






You show very nicely why Germans are smarter than americans. guess thats the reason why we always pull you over the table in trade.

 

WASHINGTON — Iran continues to be the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism, the Trump administration said Wednesday in a new report that also noted a decline in the number of terrorist attacks globally between 2015 and 2016.

In its annual “Country Reports on Terrorism” released Wednesday, the State Department said Iran was the planet’s “foremost” state sponsor of terrorism in 2016, a dubious distinction the country has held for many years. It said Iran was firm in its backing of anti-Israel groups as well as proxies that have destabilized already devastating conflicts in Iraq, Syria and Yemen. It also said Iran continued to recruit in Afghanistan and Pakistan for Shiite militia members to fight in Syria and Iraq. And, it said Iranian support for Lebanon’s Hezbollah movement was unchanged.

In terms of non-state actors, the report said the Islamic State group was responsible for more attacks and deaths than any other group in 2016, and was seeking to widen its operations particularly as it lost territory in Iraq and Syria. It carried out 20 percent more attacks in Iraq in 2016 compared with 2015, and its affiliates struck in more than 20 countries, according to the report. Iran has been designated a “state sponsor of terrorism” by the State Department and subjected to a variety of U.S. sanctions since 1984, and many of the activities outlined in the report are identical to those detailed in previous reports. But, this year’s finding comes as the Trump administration moves to toughen its stance against Iran. The administration is expected to complete a full review of its policy on Iran next month.

The UN isn't a country... They can't ban people from travel.
Only countries can ban people from travelling. Your example is silly.

 

Can you give the numbers of the state sponsored terror attacks from Saudi Arabia please.

Greatest means always in regard to another one. Since IS is sponsored by Saudi Arabia and USA supports Saudi Arabia, please show how they fare against Iran. I want hard facts. Dude whats so difficult for you?

How much funding goes from Saudi Arabia to Daesh? How much to Al Nusra? How much attacks did DEASH comitt? How much Al Nusra?

If we break with Iran, will you also break with Saudi Arabia?

If not, why not?

 

Since many germans, UK, french, belgians and others have contributed financially or by direct fighting for Isis, does that means that those countries sponsored Isis? Were those peoples officers of the special forces of those countries?

 

He was the Shah in 1953 but not the power. Mossadegh was the power and the US backed coup put the Shah in power. You have it backwards.

 

Mossadegh was only prime minister. According to the iranian constitution that put him bellow the shah. You've been fed leftist propaganda.

 

Other than the fact that they got the ball rolling. I live in the US, love the US, military family but to think that the US is the moral center of the world is terribly misguided.

 

Better go back and check your post. You're usually more articulate and grammatically better. To be honest, that post is like someone else posted it in your name.

 

Sure, right, of course. This coming from a guy that voted for a wanna be dictator that calls the free press "enemy of the people". Congratulations
As far as blood on the hands of left....right. It's a potato/patato situation.
