US Senator McCain calls for sanctions against Iran

john_mccain_proUS Senator John McCain on Wednesday called for “immediate sanctions” against Iran in the wake of a violent crackdown on protests, which left at least eight people dead.
The remarks by the Arizona Republican were carried by the website of the Phoenix, Arizona-based news radio station, KTAR.
McCain said that the United States should provide “support to those people who are struggling for democracy and freedom” in Iran.
He noted that Iran’s police chief had threatened “no mercy” in crushing demonstrations, which have led to more than 500 arrests since Sunday.
Security forces used batons and teargas to disperse the protesters on Sunday, who used the Shiite holy day of Ashura to stage fresh anti-government demonstrations.
“It’s very clear that the Iranians are not interested in any meaningful agreement that would in any way restrain their continued development of nuclear weapons,” McCain said.
The Washington Post reported today that the Obama administration is weighing focused sanctions against members of Iran’s government rather than broad-based penalties that it fears could alienate the Iranian public.
US officials told Reuters that discussions over what sanctions to impose were likely to begin in earnest within the United Nations Security Council in mid-January.

  3. These days of austerity and relative stress about taking on debt, lots of people balk against the idea of using a credit card to make acquisition of merchandise or perhaps pay for any occasion, preferring, instead just to rely on the particular tried and trusted means of making payment – raw cash. However, in case you have the cash there to make the purchase in whole, then, paradoxically, that’s the best time to be able to use the credit card for several factors.

Many people do obtain notice that they have been officially dropped by the insurance company and several have to scramble to get extra insurance following a cancellation.

This tells me he has something to hide.The people do have a right to know if he is qualified to be President.Voting this man in office was the biggest mistake America has ever made.
