The only measures keeping the Iranian terrorist regime at bay in the past years was Former President Donald Trump. His decision to remove the United States from the horrific Iran Deal, and impose sanctions on the regime’s top leaders, have prevented a Middle East catastrophe and added to the ongoing peace between Israel and the Arab world.
Well, that’s all gone now thanks to Joe Biden, who hopes to reinstate the U.S. back into the horrific deal his boss – Barack Obama – originally got us into.
Lest we forget, Barack Obama literally airlifted billions of U.S. dollars directly to the Iranian terrorists.
This week, the Biden administration announced sanctions imposed by Donald Trump against two Iranian companies that backed Tehran’s illicit nuclear missile programs will be lifted immediately.
The U.S. Treasury Department removed Mammut Industries and its subsidiary, Mammut Diesel, from its Specially Designated Nationals list.
The Trump administration sanctioned the companies in September 2020 along with several shareholders and senior officials of the companies, accusing them of supplying goods for Iran’s nuclear missile program.
The designations came amid the U.S. government’s efforts to punish Tehran for its nuclear activity and malign influence in the region, something the Biden administration is seeking to reverse in the name of diplomacy.
Iran is claiming that the administration of U.S. President Joe Biden offered to remove 1,040 sanctions that were imposed during the administration of President Donald Trump, as Biden tries to entice Iran to resume the 2015 nuclear deal. https://t.co/NxrWxcV6dr

A Treasury spokesperson said the decision to remove the two Iranian companies from the sanction list wasn’t related to negotiations between the U.S. and Iran regarding the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, the so-called Iran nuclear deal.
Then how the hell can they explain removing the Trump-era sanctions?!
Eric Ferrari, an attorney defending both companies tweeted:
“Happy for the delisting of our clients today, and proud of all our folks who worked on this and saw it through,”
The United States has truly become a laughing stock.
In 2018 the Trump administration reinstated all sanctions removed under the Barack Obama-negotiated 2015 JCPOA nuclear deal, targeting both Iran and states that trade with it.

Washington said it wanted to stop what it called Tehran’s “malign” activities including cyber attacks, ballistic missile tests, and support for violent extremist groups and militias in the Middle East.
More than 700 individuals, entities, vessels and aircraft were placed on the sanctions list, including major banks, oil exporters and shipping companies.
Meanwhile, this isn’t the first indication the Biden administration plans to go easy on Iran.
Back in June, they also lifted sanctions against three former Iranian officials and two companies that did business in Iran with its oil companies.
The action was widely interpreted by the media as a signal to Tehran that Biden stands ready to make further concessions to reverse President Donald Trump’s exit from the JCPOA nuclear deal.
A complete catastrophe.
