U.S. Senate Approves New Sanctions on Iran

The U.S. Senate today unanimously passed a bill that expands sanctions against Iran. The legislation will close loopholes and extend the existing sanctions on dealing with the National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) and National Iranian Tanker Company (NITC).


Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said today that Iran “threatens Israel and world peace.”

"In the face of malicious intent, world leaders must show determination, and not weakness," Netanyahu said. "They must not make concessions towards Iran. They should present clear and unequivocal requirements." [Arutz Sheva, 22 May].

Netanyahu said Iran must give IAEA inspectors full access to all its nuclear facilities, must cease all uranium enrichment activities, and send all uranium enriched to 20% out of the country.

Those cowardly Zionist of the U.S. and Israel are too tired of 'barking' and 'beating the empty drums of war' against Iran for 33 long years since the victory of the Islamic Revolution of Iran back in 1979.

Spying, sanctioning and the latest; killing of iranian nuclear scientists and experts, are the only options left upon those world's leading warmongers.

It's all not about Iran's right of acquiring nuclear technologies but instead, the rapid growths of Iran's military hardwares and warfares are the West's most concerned.

US Senate is a joke, even in their own country , full of orgies and corruption.
The films and videos are all by Mossad and thus all Senators are blackmailed into all sorts of unamerican moves.

Are you trying to say that in Iran the mullahs are not corrupt or marry 9 year old girls?
The occupied parliament in Iran is full of Palestinians and Iraqis who perform all sorts of anti Iranian acts.

You can sit there all day long and claim "both one of the same"and still won't change the facts that there are other Iranians (the majority)that don't support your cretinous views of Iran and the world in general.
Maybe you've been taking to much sedatives lately and happily convinced yourself that the IRI is heaven on earth?
Grow up and live to except it.
