On Sunday, The Conservative Treehouse<\/a> posted the following headline:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That truly sums up the current situation with Iranian oil.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Oil and gas sales from Iran are under international sanction and not supposed to be taking place. However, oil and gas sales from Iran -violating the sanctions- have been taking place.<\/strong><\/p>\n

CENTCOM is announcing that the U.S. military will now ensure the oil and gas from Iran doesn\u2019t move.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The U.S. will physically enforce the pre-existing global sanctions. A blockade begins tomorrow morning.<\/strong><\/p>\n

…Oil and gas from Kuwait will be allowed transit and passage.\u00a0 Oil and gas from the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Qatar will also transit without issue.\u00a0 However, oil or gas from Iran will be blocked.\u00a0 China takes the biggest hit, again.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The target now is to cut off the Iranian money supply.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This blockade is happening against the little discussed backdrop<\/a> of Dubai (UAE) targeting Iranian money changers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article quotes Iran International<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The arrest of dozens of IRGC-linked money changers in the United Arab Emirates is one of the most serious blows yet to Tehran\u2019s sanctions-evasion network, laying bare how heavily the Islamic Republic has depended on Dubai as an economic lifeline.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

Sources familiar with the matter told Iran International <\/a>that UAE authorities detained dozens of money changers tied to financial entities linked to Iran\u2019s Revolutionary Guards, shut down associated companies and closed their offices.<\/strong><\/p>\n

…For years, Dubai has served as Iran\u2019s main offshore financial artery, where oil proceeds, petrochemical revenues and rial conversions were turned into dollars, dirhams and euros beyond the reach of the country\u2019s battered domestic banking system.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is going to be a real problem for Tehran because Dubai was an economic lung for the Iranian regime,\u201d Jason Brodsky of United Against Nuclear Iran told Iran International.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I don’t think it was wise of the Iranian regime to bomb the UAE. Iran has successfully alienated all of its possible supporters in the region.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
