The United States on Thursday placed sanctions on five subsidiaries of an Iranian industrial group that is considered key in the development and production of the country’s ballistic missiles.
The sanctions imposed by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, an arm of the Treasury Department, targeted companies that are owned or controlled by the Shahid Bakeri Industrial Group, an Iranian defense entity that already is under U.S. sanctions.
Last month, Nikki Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, showed reporters fragments from missiles that had been launched by Yemeni rebels into Saudi Arabia. One shredded fragment had the Shahid Bakeri logo on it, seeming proof that it was manufactured in Iran.
The latest sanctions were directed at Shahid Kharrazi Industries, Shahid Sanikhani Industries, Shahid Moghaddam Industries, Shahid Eslami Research Center and Shahid Shustari Industries, all linked to Shahid Bakeri. Each produces a specific component of ballistic missiles, such as guidance and control systems, motor cases or fiber materials.
The new sanctions come after a week of anti-government protests that have spread across Iran in towns and small cities that previously were considered bulwarks of government support. President Trump has tweeted his support for the protesters and criticism of the government, warning that “the world is watching.”
In addition, Trump must decide by Jan. 15 whether to recertify Iran’s compliance with the 2015 nuclear deal with world powers, which he decided not to do in October. He also must decide whether to waive U.S. nuclear-related sanctions that were suspended under the landmark agreement. If he decides not to waive sanctions and to reimpose them, the United States would be violating the commitments it made and, in effect, walking away from the agreement.

I've said this before and I'll say it again. The United States *wants* war with Iran. And we've used the same setup we always do. Good cop / Bad cop routine or Create a problem, cause a reaction, offer a solution.
Good Cop : Obama seeks diplomatic means to broker a deal with Iran (widely unpopular domestically and doomed to failure by design) and gets support for it by appealing to other nations and the U.N (Makes the US look reasonable because we're giving the *bad guys* a chance to turn around)
Bad Cop : Trump comes in after Obama, in typical setup fashion declares the Nuclear deal a catastrophe and starts up anti Iranian dialect. Points to Iran's nuclear program, accuses them of weapons development and paints them as the overall *boogey man*.
Convenient Situations used for further propaganda : Iran undergoes more civil unrest and Trump uses this opportunity to smear campaign Iran and issue more sanctions.
Next Convenient Situation Upcoming January 15th of this month : Nuclear Deal waiver for re-certification comes up. Nostradumbass future prediction says, Trump will not sign waiver further deteriorating relations, increasing hostilities and setting up further propaganda to go to war with Iran because now they are building *nuclear weapons* without approval of the United mother fucking States of Murica.
What say you Sherdog!?
