This morning the associated press is reporting the following:
"The Obama administration on Friday removed sanctions against three Russian organizations the US had previously accused of assisting Iran's effort to develop nuclear weapons.
Penalties against a fourth Russian entity previously accused of illicit arms sales to Syria were also lifted.
The timing of the decisions, published in Friday's Federal Register but not otherwise announced by the State Department, suggested the possibility of a link to US efforts to win Russian support for a new UN Security Council resolution expanding sanctions against Iran over its nuclear program.
The State Department on Friday did not immediately respond to questions about lifting the sanctions."
So there you have it. Obama and the Obamacrats are making noise about achieving the impositions of sanctions against Iran to slow its nuclear arms development, but at the same time their actions -- as opposed to what they say -- reveal that the USA is actually lifting sanctions against those who have been helping the Iranians to get nuclear arms. And before you decide that this is just Obama undoing some wrong that was imposed by George Bush, you should know that the sanctions against these entities were imposed in 1999 by the Clinton administration.
Obama and the Obamacrats are still operating on the theory that words are more important than actions. In any situation this is a delusional point of view. In today's world, it is a view that threatens both the USA and the world with permanent harm. Obama really has to go -- really! (apologies to Frank Luntz)
