According to the U.S. Census Bureau, U.S. corporations sold $15.9 million worth of goods to Iran, in January 2011, despite U.S. sanctions.
Iran is under four rounds of UN Security Council sanctions (pushed by the United States), targeting the country’s energy and banking sectors, including a U.S. boycott of gasoline supplies.
Iranian officials say the sanctions have forced their businesses to become more efficient, and has actually increased their production capabilities.
More proof that our exalted leaders here in the U.S. are idiots (or liars)!
