Overview

When the Obama administration was strong-arming Senate Democrats to save its Iran deal, many promises were made. Central to the White House storyline was the President's claim that sanctions on Iran for terrorism, human rights and ballistic missiles will continue to be fully enforced. Iran will keep pushing until the Obama administration stops rolling over. Congressional pressure may have knocked the administration off their plans-for now-to allow Iran access to the U.S. dollar, which is the world's top currency, but the administration refuses to rule out a future move. And in the meantime, it is actively working other angles to push new investment into the Iranian economy. Secretary Kerry is in Europe this week taking the odd step of reassuring foreign firms that Iran is, in his words, open for business. Other administration officials go so far as to say that Iranian economic growth is in our national security interest. That is a tough case to make when you consider that Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, the terrorist IRGC, has been labeled Iran's most powerful economic actor by the U.S. Treasury Department.
