Breaking: US sanctions Islamic Revolutionary Guards
The BBC is reporting that the US has imposed sanctions on Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards in a bid to get Iran to drop its nuclear weapons program (Hat Tip: Will).
The US Treasury has imposed sanctions against companies connected with the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guards.
The action extends earlier sanctions against the Guards and its construction company headquarters, Reuters reported.
It aims to freeze the foreign assets of four companies connected to Khatam al-Anbiya Construction, and its chief officer.
The company's profits help fund Iran's nuclear and missile programmes, the US Treasury said.
I think this is what they call 'targeted sanctions.' But it sounds like Chinese water torture. It'll take forever for all these dribs and drabs of sanctions to add up to something significant. What could go wrong?
