Really.. That could'nt just be a GOP ploy to get votes now could it! Just like him not being born here and everything else that gets spouted by the 2 party puppets of the political system! Keep taking sides cause you are a model citizen for the NWO but only patriots will tear down the tyranny weighing down our freedoms!
Goodluck and Godbless all you blind followers!

Thats right and I know in health care paychecks are a thing of the past and if you do not have an account you will not be paid. People simply do not see how this set up is incremental. No body wants to fight 'the little things' but it is all little unless you see the big picture.

I just spent time going over this EO. As much as I am not an Obama supporter, I wish you all would go through and read this. Its not what you think.

It will not just freeze bank acounts and abilities to get loans,etc. All monies retrieved go to the US government.

Stay with me.

This is ONLY for any person or entity foreign included that aids Iran in any way.

SO, if lets say a person or bank in China decides to help Iran, what ever money, investments, property etc they have here in the United States will be claimed by the United States.

This EO is a notice to all countries that if they side with or aid Iran instead of us, they will loose everything they own here.

This EO is the "dotting the i's and crossing the t's" before war.

For definition of sanctioned person see section 5

I see the bottom part using the word "IRAN", but not in the top part. The title has it, middle doesn't and the end does have the word IRAN in it.


No. The order says people messing with Iranian government, just not in those words.

What it says;



Section 1. (a) When the President, or the Secretary of State or the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant to authority delegated by the President and in accordance with the terms of such delegation, has determined that sanctions shall be imposed on a person pursuant to ISA, CISADA, or ITRSHRA and has, in accordance with those authorities, selected one or more of the sanctions set forth in section 6 of ISA to impose on that person, the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State, shall take the following actions with respect to the sanctions selected and maintained by the President, the Secretary of State, or the Secretary of the Treasury:


What is CISADA? The treasury dept sect that deals with only the sanctions on IRAN.

As you can see here;


The CISADA was enacted July 1, 2010, soon after the United Nations Security Council adopted Resolution 1929, the fourth U.N. resolution imposing binding legal obligations and sanctions on Iran.


www.treasury.gov...

(ITRSHRA), which amends the Iran Sanctions Act of 1996


Yep I get all that and it fits a skimmed purpose. Meaning, most skim, quick read and while others really stop to figure out what is the EXTRA stuff they are adding to existing orders?

The cherry picked words is what I'm after.

I still need the governments definition of a "sanctioned person" and "American person".

Read my post a few before yours, there is a link. Go to section 5. It defines what you are looking for.

Sometimes...well actually a lot of times I have this NAGGING feeling that we are witnessing what amounts to social experimentation...

I know this seems off topic but I believe it is relevant to the outcomes of these orders, laws, acts, bills, and essentially injustices of hypocrisy running rampant across the globe...but here goes:

If you want to see what a dog does when he is cornered and study that behavior...you must first corner him...same goes for humans. I'm starting to think human beings are being pushed to their limits to assess their tolerance levels and find out where exactly that breaking point is...

Why would this global experiment be taking place?? Why so much effort to destroy what we have created just to see what type of reaction you will get? I'm not entirely sure but my gut tells me that its an experiment in evolution...populations have bottle necked before I'm guessing were on the verge of bottle necking again...we may end up with branching species of people we may end up with extinction or we may end up with a single "super race" I'm not entirely sure...and that's where the experiment comes in...to find out.

What is even scarier, is if he loses the election,

Can I top your 'scarier' with one eve scarier yet?

President Obama has the RIGHT via his Executive order to dissolve congress and SUSPEND THE ELECTION all together.

I'll have to go search for what EO that is - but it's there. And wait a moment! Wouldn't the problems in Iran be a perfect reason to suspend elections. Orrrrrr maybe another false flag? Orrrrrrrrr he's got a gnarly pimple on his behind?

peace


The right to dissolve Congress and suspend Elections is an EO that was signed by Bush and expanded on by the Patriot Act.

Much like I said back then, don't get caught up in who signed it, just realize that such powers get passed along to the future Administrations, so they can be used at any time.

It's really amazing how naive some people are saying stuff like you're fine as long as you're not sending money to Iran or Syria etc.... Sigh! Then why does government need blanket powers over your bank account hmmm?

Famous last words of government; yeah we need this power but we would never use it on average American citizens... Have any of the geniuses thinking its fine even looked at governments track record on this type of thing? Of course you haven't! I sometimes wonder how low it can get on the IQ meter...


It really illustrates why our society is imploding to many people are led by the nose far to easily...

That was actually sarcasm. You didn't think I was serious did you. I thought it was quite humorous. Now when is the NWO invasion happening so I can pencil it in my schedule?

It Goes beyond Fascism.




Just think. There are those that want another 4 years, of this........


And I remind you that your precious Bush created the Patriot Act and removed more of your liberties and freedoms than anyone cares to admit.

So, what makes you think that Romney is going to be ANY different?

Do you still not get it? It doesn't matter who you elect, because the US government was taken over in a silent coup - probably on Sept 11th 2001, when your corrupt Bush handed over the management of the nation to a fascist regime of corporation and military.

And lets also remember that the Republican party have been caught ON FILM for all to see manipulating the vote at the RBC and installing a dictatorship in their own party. If you think they would hesitate to pull the same BS on the entire nation (which some believe Bush already did on 9/11) then you're naive at best.

If the RNC is happy to show the world that they don't give a rats ass about the voting process for their OWN PARTY SUPPORTERS, why would they care about the rest of the country - especially when Romney has also openly stated that 47% of the American people are of little interest to him?

I've known for a long time that the US is in a major crisis, but the actions of Obama (remember the low flying of Air Force One over NYC? That was a warning to Obama imo) prove to me that the US was hijacked.

If you think Romney is going to get into office and remove the Patriot Act, remove NDAA, and remove this new power too, you probably shouldn't have the right to vote!

Those same people presumably have no idea what the word "sanctions" is either.

The government does not need blanket powers over every citizen and their finances to stop a regime like Iran or Syria from receiving money. This is what sanctions are for, and every institution responsible for the transfer of funds from one nation to another would be monitoring this.

They do not need control over individual finances of citizens for this purpose, and to suggest that this is an excuse is mind-numbingly idiotic.

What percentage of the Military, would actually back Obama from doing something like that?

0%. MHO


At least I would hope so.


Russian and Chinese. Rumor is the Russian Spetsnaz are already here, deposited at various military bases around the country and the Chinese are somewhere in Mexico.

Four years back there was a great clamor about Bush declaring martial law and suspending elections as well. Additionally he also had the power to seize assets under the Patriot Act. These are not Obama related things. They are the new status quo since we all watched two towers fall, thousands die, and let our mourning be forged into Patriotic anger.

Now, nearly twelve years and two empty wars later - all we have to show for it is a laundry list of lost rights, countless dead, on both sides, and two opportunities to say "We got him".

Obama got voted in because people believed he'd reverse the Bush/Cheney doctrine and repeal the Patriot Acts and the Military Commissions act of 2006. Instead he not only kept them, he added more wood to the fire. Now, in some bizarre and Orwellian twist of fate, here we are, four years later, with Bush forgotten, blaming Obama, and with folks clamoring for Romney - because he will be the guy to set things right.

It's not going to happen. If elected, he will do the same thing as Obama did. He'll keep the status quo alive and well. He will pursue the agenda and the plan - just as his two predecessors did. This is the truth of things.

If we want true change we can't focus on the POTUS. We need to focus upon Congress. Term limits for the House and the Senate, a full banning of the system of bribery we call "lobbying", and much more stern rules regarding ethics and transparency for them all.

Until we do those things? The status quo will remain and nothing will change no matter who is in the White House.

~Heff


That is the best rebuttal to all of the anti-Obama threads here that I have read. People don't seem to get that the POTUS only has a shelf life of 4-8 yrs and has a limited impact on most of the long term policies. You have to look at the individuals who bounce around from post to post (i.e. going from Director of CIA to Secretary of Defense to some other head position) to find the true power in Washington. See who they make deals with and as always.....follow the money.

What do you think the various sanctions against Iran "freezing assets" have ben doing for the last umpteen years - including under Bush??

Here's the title of the Actual EO:


AUTHORIZING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF CERTAIN SANCTIONS SET FORTH IN THE IRAN THREAT REDUCTION AND SYRIA HUMAN RIGHTS ACT OF 2012 AND ADDITIONAL SANCTIONS WITH RESPECT TO IRAN


Did you note that this EO implements sanctions set forth in the Act of 2012??

so this is something that is authorised by Congress!!

Here is the text of the Act - Subtitle B includes "Addition sanctions with respect to Iran", and includes:


Sec. 214. Imposition of sanctions with respect to subsidiaries and agents of persons sanctioned by United Nations Security Council resolutions.

Sec. 215. Imposition of sanctions with respect to transactions with persons sanctioned for certain activities relating to terrorism or proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.


this act was passed by 421-6 with 3 not voting in the House of Representatives - voting record

It was sponsored by a Republican member, and had 364 co-sponsors. It passed the Senate on a voice vote, with an amendment that was accepted by the HOR - major points in passage of bill

Laying this as dictatoral and fascist by "Obama" is BS.
