That's a seriously ridiculous comparison.
Because you say so? Gotta do better than that, private oh so obvious.
The scandal came to light when it was revealed that the Amir Mansour Arya Investment Group, which was established in 2004 with merely $50,000 worth of capital, had managed to acquire nearly 140 forged or unregistered letters of credit worth approximately $2.8 billion from a particular branch of a semi-privatized bank. It then exchanged them at a discounted rate at other banks and used the acquired cash to buy four large privatized factories, including the National Industrial Steel Group.
Your right...it is ridiculous. No lives where lost in the example you provided. How many lives were lost and will continue to be lost in Rothschild funded wars?
Wrong again.
I could not care less about what you think or believe.
Some people know and understand...most people choose not to accept reality.
Then you have your lulz people, idiots and agents. I don't waste my time sorting them out or trying to convince others.
I'll let you get the last word to help you with your ego and/or your mission. Just know this... there are people that see through you and others like you.
You won't win....because you can't win.
An act of war right there.

"I have determined that additional sanctions are warranted, particularly in light of the deceptive practices of the Central Bank of Iran and other Iranian banks to conceal transactions of sanctioned parties, the deficiencies in Iran's anti-money laundering regime and the weaknesses in its implementation, and the continuing and unacceptable risk posed to the international financial system by Iran's activities," Obama said in a letter to Congress.
Its more than oil.

Sigh, it's just another goddamned war over oil.
I long for the day for people to learn not to do this crap.

This isn't just about oil; its about much more. Iran may have nuclear weapons so everyone has a right to be interested and a right to know if they do or don't. I use the term "may" loosely as its more than likely Iran do have something they don't want to disclose which endangers the rest of the world. You only have to look back to when the UN sent scientists, etc to check on what Iran were doing and what happened? They were shown the bits Iran wanted them to see. If this was just about oil and it was desperately needed the UK and US would have already launched some form of military action in order to stop Iran from being mind-numbingly stupid.

What you have stated...is what I have been thinking. I think Iran (may have nuclear weapons) and/or connections with other countries...who will supply them with nuclear capabilities...regardless of what President Obama signs or does regarding Iran. I think that Iran has some serious allies...that are also against America...and they are going to help Iran.

If iran had nukes it dosnt matter. wouldnt be the first nation with nukes. pakistan had nukes. israel has nukes that i beleive was given to them by the usa. not sure about that that one though.
It dosnt mean the end of the world if a country has nukes. this idea that the americans have of themselves are going to stand looking heroic taking down a dictator is running down its use. Freedom is the idea set into thge mind of the soldier. money is the idea set in the corporate interest backing the battle.
so what will happen when the americans set foot on iran. they'll wipe out a few units od iran soldiers. kick ass without taking names. and when the cities are taken they will find out real soon that the people of iran liked their leader and he wasnt near the nut that the media portrayed. a good number of soldiers will lose confidence in the war
