Israelis run US Treasury, use it to punish Israel’s enemies

Kevin Barrett

Press TV Mike Pompeo is apparently still suffering from the delusions and hallucinations that he announced a month or so ago when he claimed that the US was going to be imposing unilateral multilateral sanctions against Iran. He said the sanctions would be unilateral because nobody else agreed with them, and the rest of the world rejected them, but they would then be multilateral because the rest of the world would have to impose them anyway. And that’s what’s happened now. Pompeo thought he could push these things through the Security Council to make his unilateral sanctions at least a…

Zionist stooge Pompeo spews insane nonsense against Iran

Kevin Barrett

Kevin Barrett interviewed by Press TV Mike Pompeo has been leading the charge in the Trump administration to try to trigger the snapback provisions in the Iran nuclear deal, the JCPOA. And this has led to a chorus of derision and mockery from all over the world, not just from sources one would expect, like Foreign Minister Zarif from Iran, but from elsewhere as well even including from John Bolton, who was former (Pompeo’s) extremely hawkish anti-Iran colleague. Everybody is laughing at Pompeo at this point because Pompeo’s position is that even though the United States has left the JCPOA and…

Treasury Dept. Sanctions Diva Sigal Mandelker, Exposed as Israeli Mole, Resigns in Disgrace

Kevin Barrett

By Kevin Barrett, Veterans Today Editor When the FBI called me up to request an in-person interview—and to warn me I would be arrested if I attended a scholarly conference in Beirut—I told them the person they should be investigating was Sigal Mandelker, the suspected Israeli agent running the US Treasury Department’s sanctions program. Israeli-born dual citizen Mandelker was using her perch at Treasury to persecute loyal, patriotic Americans and deprive them of their rights of free speech and free association. Specifically, she had engineered a witch hunt against Iran-based NGO New Horizon, leading to that organization being spuriously designated…

Iran: Threat or Menace? Part 2: Candidates and Issues

Kevin Barrett

In Part One of this series, I covered some important historical background to Iranian politics in general, and the upcoming June 14th presidential elections in particular. Today, I will consider some specific candidates and issues. The two main political groupings in Iranian politics are the principlists and reformists. The former stress adhering to the principles of the Islamic revolution, and generally favor principle over expediency; while the latter are more willing to bend or compromise principles as they search for pragmatic solutions. The currently favored presidential candidate is Supreme National Security Council President Saeed Jalili, a leading principlist. Saeed Jalili…
