BizPacReview<\/a> reported yesterday about some information in the Obama Administration’s<\/a> Friday night document dump.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Before the start of the Columbus Day<\/a> holiday weekend, the Treasury Department<\/a> made it easier for offshore banking<\/a> institutions to make transactions with Iran<\/a>, as long as the money doesn\u2019t actually enter the U.S. financial system. Although many sanctions were lifted as a part of the Iran deal<\/a>, certain \u201cspecially designated nationals<\/a>,\u201d or SDNs, are still subject to the sanctions for reasons which include their human rights record<\/a> or support for terror groups.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now, even these SDNs are no longer completely banned from transacting with U.S. businesses.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Associated Press<\/a> reports that this change in the rules is the result of complaints from Iran that the remaining U.S. Sanctions<\/a> have limited Iran in its commercial dealings with other countries.<\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

Just another bad postscript to a bad deal<\/a>, and we can expect plenty more of the same if people keep paying attention to the puppet shows instead of the man, or woman, behind the curtain.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Iran deal was a really bad deal. We are financing terrorism and the development of an atomic bomb by Iran. We can expect more of the same from a President Hillary Clinton.<\/p>\n
