'The state agency called the bank a rogue institution and quoted one of
its executives as saying: "You (f....) Americans. Who are you to
tell us, the rest of the world, that we're not going to deal with
Iranians."

Corruption, deceipt, murdering the innocents, rapes, illegal territorials occupations by military force, droning, bombings, & many other heineous crimes are what 'the Fred's sane world' is all about!

Making an example out of this lawbreaker

by Fred on

The only way to stop the weaponized nuke acquiring Messianic Islamist Rapists from imposing another war on all, is backbreaking airtight sanctions plus air/naval quarantine. 

Those who violate the law and facilitate the Islamist Rapists, including banks making transfer of money possible to pay for the Islamist Rapists' nefarious activities and their moochers have to pay heavy price.

This law breaking bank has already lost a good portion of its stock value; it has to be made an example to others.

A mafia like policy designed to control the world and in case of Iran to weaken the Iranian people.  If this is not an empire, not sure what it would be.

  I hope and wish that every penny earned as a result of illicit money or profit  in relation to sanction or advocacy of it either by domestic or foreign nationals and organizations to be spent on Dava o doktor in the worse possible way.

 

'Hambastegi' is the main key to victory
