-- I note that RT is on a full-court press here... Good. It's honest accurate reporting and the analysis rocks. It's all-out war on the dollar now as the United States gives every impression of being a stumbling, deluded, ineffective and very-dangerous loose canon. No wonder the world is fighting back. So are we... every American who despises, suffers, and is being rubbed raw under the boot of a fascist dictatorship. ---MCR

Foot Shooting: 'Disturbing oil imports hurts US first'

RT

As the US seeks new ways to undermine the Syrian government, it's now slapping even more sanctions on Damascus' closest ally - Iran. President Obama's given the all-clear to the toughest measures yet against the Islamic state's oil industry. Washington will take punitive economic measures against any country that refuses to reduce imports of fuel from Iran.

Soraya Sepahpour-Ulrich, researcher and writer talks to RT. She thinks America's shooting itself in the foot by such sanctions.
