    Damn petroyuan rose 12% since US withdrawal from Iran deal

    Also looks like Chinese Oil Company will take over French company if they pull out of Iran. That would basically mean Irans supply will basically belong to china and its petroyuan

    making china great again


    Not to mention EU is considering dumping US dollar in trades with Iran and trade in Euro

    Goddam this could be the move that takes US out of global domination
    Called this



    Chinese taking over where French company left

    China is now going to control 70% of earths biggest oil field and will only trade in Yuan

    Making China Great Again

    opportunity for China:

    German newspaper Weltam Sonntag reported on Sunday that diplomats from Europe, China and Russia are discussing a new accord to offer Iran financial aid to curb its ballistic missile development, in the hope of salvaging the 2015 deal, according to Reuters. The officials will meet in Vienna in the coming week under the leadership of senior European Union diplomat Helga Schmid to discuss the next steps.

    U.S. sanctions against allies over Iran deal like blowing up a bridge while still standing on it

    As Iran, the E.U., and Russia work to save the deal,

    the Trump administration tries to figure out which of its partners to sanction first.

    Iranian FM dismisses Pompeo speech as a ‘sham’

    Zarif says new US strategy on Iran 'repeats the same wrong choices and will thus reap the same ill rewards'

    Pompeo: US will ‘crush’ Iranian and Hezbollah operatives

    Pompeo says the US and its allies will work to “deter Iranian aggression,” thwarting Iranian cyberattacks and efforts to interfere with crucial waterways.

    “We will track down Iranian operatives and their Hezbollah allies around the world and we will crush them,” he says.


    “If they restart their nuclear program it will mean bigger problems. Bigger problems than they’ve ever had before,” adds Pompeo.


    He also says the US will continue to condemn Iran’s treatment of its citizens, noting the recent protests in the country.

    Pompeo is now in compe ion with Nikki Haley for the best Trump and Israel's ass licker. Threats after threats...
    Let's see what Nikki will add to the Pompeo's list. She must to keep up her position.
    The USA is becoming a laughing stock for the world, and together with Netanyahu and Bolton its leaders are perceived as inept but dangerous clowns.
    On wonders if they will survive more than a year in their job

    Pompeo vows 'strongest sanctions in history' on Iran






    vowed Monday to levy an “unprecedented” level of sanctions on Iran

    in his fist major foreign policy address since becoming chief diplomat, Pompeo laid out 12 pillars the U.S. would demand from Iran for a new deal, even as he said a new agreement is “not the objective” of the Trump administration.

    “We will apply unprecedented financial pressure on the Iranian regime,”

    “The sting of sanctions will be painful if the regime does not change course from the unacceptable and unproductive path it has chosen to one that rejoins the league of nations.

    These will indeed end up being the strongest sanctions in history when we are complete.”


    Pompeo acknowledged the concerns European allies

    “Any time sanctions are put in place, countries have to give up economic activity,” he said.

    “Everyone’s going to have to participate in this.

    Every country’s going to have to understand that we cannot continue to create wealth for [Quds Force Commander] Qasem Soleimani.”

    Trash/Pompeo gonna European wealth and jobs hard and deep to please Israel and End Timer losers.

    Another Kock Bros Kock sucker from Kansas

    How Pompeo’s “Severest Sanctions” on Iran Will Backfire


    Pompeo,

    a Kansas oil man backed by the Koch brothers,

    knows little about the world and is among the worst prepared secretaries of state in American history.


    Pompeo, a Kansas oil man backed by the Koch brothers, is just a former congressman and

    a virulent Christian fundamentalist

    with white nationalist tendencies.


    He knows little about the world and is among the worst prepared secretaries of state in American history. He also knows
    nothing about the history of the region.

    The classic work on sanctions by K.A. ****** and G.C. Huffbauer “concluded that empirical research on 115 cases of sanctions imposed from World War I to 1990 indicate that

    sanctions are more likely to succeed if its goal is modest,

    the target country is smaller than the sending country,

    the receiving and sending countries have friendly relations with substantial trade prior to imposition of sanctions,

    the cost to sending country is not significant, and sanctions are imposed quickly and decisively.”


    (Quoting S. Shojai and Patricia S. Root, “Effectiveness Of Economic Sanctions: Empirical Research Revisited,” The International Business & Economics Research Journal (Online) Vol. 12, Issue 11. Date: 2013.)


    Pompeo’s press on Iran is the opposite of those successful cases in most regards.

    The US did not have good trade relations with Iran before Pompeo, and Pompeo’s demands are extremely wide-ranging.

    Historical experience therefore predicts failure.

    opportunities for Iran, possible eviction notices for US troops and contractors after the recent Iraqi elections:

    two staunchly anti-American alliances – led by Muqtadar al-Sadr and Hadi al-Amiri – secured first and second places respectively.
    Coalition making will be a long drawn out process, but what is clear is that the next government in Baghdad will have a pronouncedly anti-American tilt and the probability is high that it could evict US troops and contractors totaling 100,000 in Iraq.

    Trump administration threatens sanctions against countries that import Iranian oil

    impose sanctions against governments that don’t cut imports of Iranian oil to “zero” by Nov. 4,

    the arm-twisting is meeting resistance in parts of Europe, especially among allies who helped negotiate and sign the disarmament accord and want to sustain it to constrain Iran’s nuclear ambitions.

    The State Department official, who briefed reporters on condition of anonymity, said countries must stop imports of Iranian oil by the November deadline or face so-called secondary sanctions for trading with Iran. No waivers are planned,

    Iran’s most significant customers are China, India, South Korea and Japan, while France and Italy are the largest in Europe.

    Giuliani Vows That Trump Will Help Bring Down the Iranian Regime

    The Trump Administration is now signalling to its allies and Iranian dissidents that its new policy—to choke Tehran economically and publicly support local protesters—can topple the revolutionary government in Iran.

    “We are now very realistic in being able to see an end of the regime in Iran,”

    Giuliani compared Trump’s support for the protests to President Reagan’s support for the opponents of Communist rule in Eastern Europe in the nineteen-eighties.

    like Ronald Reagan did for the protesters in Poland when Solidarity marched against Communism,” Giuliani said. “And what happened there? Communism fell.

    Iran just threatened unprecedented retaliation against the United States over Trump’s reckless attack

    Iran is threatening to close the Strait of Hormuz to all seagoing traffic. The narrow straight off its coast is, according to CNBC,“the world’s most important transit lane for crude oil.”

    If Trump cuts all of its oil sales as it is threatening,


    Iranian president Hassan Rouhani said his country is ready to disrupt crude (and natural gas shipments) as well as end its cooperation with the UN nuclear watchdog.

    The Pentagon is already talking tough and is likely to be backed by the hawks around Trump.

    The U.S. Navy said it is ready to confront Iran with a military response if it tries to close the Strait.

    “Bill Urban, a spokesman for US Central Command, said Washington and its allies provided security in the region and would not stand idly by,” reports The Guardian.

    “Together,” said Urban, “we stand ready to ensure the freedom of navigation and the free flow of commerce wherever international law allows,” he said.

    If a military conflict erupts, it would not be the first time.
