BREAKING. UN Court Orders US To Stop Some Sanctions On Iran

 

international-court-of-justice-620x413.j

 

Earlier today, the UN’s highest court, the International Court of Justice in the Hague (yes, I did chuckle as I was writing that), handed down a ruling requiring the United States to remove all sanctions on Iran that applied to humanitarian aid and civil aviation:

The United Nations’ highest court on Wednesday ordered the United States to lift sanctions on Iran that affect imports of humanitarian goods and products and services linked to civil aviation safety.

 

The ruling by the International Court of Justice is legally binding, but it remains to be seen if the administration of President Donald Trump will comply.

Dude, the two things in that last sentence don’t actually go together. If it is “legally binding” then compliance is required.

 

Keep in mind, the 1955 Treaty of Amity was signed with the Shah of Iran and we do not recognize the mullahs a legal successor regime. Our agreements with the Shah ended in 1979. We don’t even have diplomatic relations with Tehran. This is just a bunch of puffed up UN bureaucrats pretending they are Jeff Flake and sticking a finger in Trump’s eye.

 

 

 

 

Needless to say...........Language warning

They didn't have the balls to do it last week when Trump was actually at the UN?

It's still a strange feeling, looking at a picture of an American diplomatic jet and not wondering how many pallets of unmarked foreign currency are on board
