U.S. Threatens India With Sanctions Over Iranian Oil


www.npr.org

India must cut back its imports on Iranian oil by June 28 or face U.S sanctions. A new law targets Iran's central bank, which is used for oil transactions, and it penalizes foreign countries that ignore the sanctions.

This is pretty interesting, considering India is an ally. The USA and Europe are getting frustrated with India's lack of compliance regarding the importation of Iranian oil. India may face US sanctions if they do not compy byJune the 28th. I find this stupid as India must rely on Iranian oil to survive, yet the USA clearly doesn't care.

You people make me laugh, now we most show the power of the mighty Whore of Babylon (BTW I am not a religious follower) but for some reason I always seem to think of the US shadow power every time that part of reveletion comes to light.
We are now going to war with India right after US decimates whom? oh yeah Iran, then China.


I guess nobody here follow the news because the last time it was US telling China to impose sanctions to Iran and what China did, they gave the finger to the US, while posters here in ATS were showing who will win the China/US war


India will look for whom will sell cheap to their emerging economy, like China did and at the same time they will keep developing their nuclear power like they been doing while the US keeps pushing war with Iran because India doesn't have oil.

What a joke.

The Whore of Babylon or "Babylon the Great" is a Christian allegorical figure of evil mentioned in the Book of Revelation in the Bible. Her full title is given as "Babylon the Great, the Mother of Prostitutes and Abominations of the Earth."

And he said unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sat, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
17:18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigns over the kings of the earth.


US have the power of the money to rule behind the IMF on the EU countries, Germany so call power is just a cover up, behind that power the big corruption in the US government think they can dictate what other countries can do.

Now remember is not us the citizens doing this abominations of war, briberies and trickery is the power behind the US presidential seat.

India eventually will give a finger to the US just like China did, so lets add another name to the great list of countries to attack.

India is a sovereign nation and can do what it pleases
This is very much a slap in the face to India

India has always had good relations with the U.S.
Obama is plain and simply being a piece of #$%#^

It's one thing with NDAA, spying and this and that but now he's trying to dictate policy to other foreign sovereign nations as well

Please do not re-elect this creature

"Gold instead of dollars"

Scary thought. If the rest of the world switches over to gold trading for oil instead of the dollar... oh boy. Fun times ahead. Here comes the tumbling of Earths latest super power.

That is the price to pay to be allowed into the inner circle of US and now the EU dictatorship powers you most comply with their demands or else be alienated.

That is what the whole deal about been part of the EU is all about, so the powers behind the so call NWO can control economies abroad.

So far look what is happening in the EU and who is actually dictating policies, but is one problem China doesn't allow that crap and India depending how deep they are into US trade and aid agreement well that is another story.

Love my country, hate my government..... Why can't they just mind their own business? It's not like it is perfect here at home, plenty of hungry, homeless and corruption in our government to fix. Money better spent at home, than meddling with other's affairs.

That is exactly what I been saying for a long time, fix the problems at home before trying to fix the problems abroad, but is a problem this is how powerful economies or nations cement their power over other nations with briberies aka financial aid.

People will say "Nobody is talking about a war, it's just sanctions"

But make no mistake, sanctions are an act of war!

Embargoes are something a nation can do, but sanctions are an act of War!

No, US is not wagging war, is just posters that once news like this comes around the show of who is mighty than who starts to develop.

Is just quite entertaining.

The war with China, Iran and Russia has been wagged a long time ago here in ATS and on going now we most add India.

Actually, it is.

Economical war is also a form of war. Sanctions and limitations to trade, purchases and sells are acts of war.

Like the previous poster said, embargoes are something that is determined internally and no other country can question that. For instance, islamic countries usually ban alcohol, while westerns ban drugs, or like the US does with Cuban cigars.

But what the US is doing presently, with the sanctions and war rhetoric, is an act of war since it is an act of aggression.

Yes you are absolutely right, is always a war of some kind or source around, absolutely right, but at least we don't see pictures of marching armies or our mighty air power to show the war on drugs, still very soon we will have the darn drones for that purpose here at home. (just a joke)

It's not always a "war of some kind".

I don't understand what makes people take serious subjects so lightly. It's like if we don't go to war and kill each-other by the thousands then it doesn't matter or isn't important.

These things are very important because the US is messing with countries growth and development. If the US is going to have the "courage" to impose unilateral (and somewhat illegal) sanctions to a country and it's allies (in trade), then it should be for a damn good reason.

People often fail to see the larger picture and to see beyond the obvious. The matter of fact is that these types of policy usually end up with countries being poor and in bad condition. When a population lives poorly, it gets angry, and if the powers that represent them can control that anger, that's when serious stuff happens.

I love to see how people praise the US decisions against Iran or how they dismiss this kind of news as "unimportant", when the lack of knowledge disables them to see what's really happening.

Because of this crap, what is considered a "moderated" leader like Ahmadinejad, that could be pro-west and even an economic ally, is actually losing strength. And not only that, but he is losing power to the conservative and extremist side of Iran. He took a severe blow in the last elections in Iran.

You see, because of economic growth Iran has realized they need to have some of the west mentality in terms of trade and foreign policy. They understand the need to have friends, negotiations and the importance of not having any conflict with peripheral markets.

That's why Iran has such a deep oil market, that's why they are developing nuclear power and that's why they are able to achieve things like a space program.

This crap being made by the US is making the iranians angry and anti-US/west, and anger tries to take shelter in people who carry on that anger into foreign policies, like what happened with Adolf Hitler.

So instead of having a leader that could be worked around/with for a greater good of the region and the world, he is being put into a corner and building the basis for the iranian people demanding aggressive action that could have catastrophic consequences.

This isn't a joke.

This can't be serious


US will ask stupid things, only because Obama is locking to EVERY way that can stop an Israeli attack on Iran.Nontheless, Israel will NOT wait until June 28.India CANNOT stop the oil imports from Iran...not now anyway, in 2025 maybe.

Its just a charade played by Obama to look like he is using ALL methods (outside war) to stop Iran.US knows, Ondia knows, Iran knows and Israel knows that this request is NON REALISTIC.

So...buckle up guys, Iran is going to be hit long before June 28.
