U.S. Envoy: Iran Sanctions Help Cut Funding Streams to Hamas and Hizbullah
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - U.S. special envoy on Iran Brian Hook said Thursday before meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem, "Now that we have reimposed our sanctions [on Iran], we are in a position to really go after all the revenue streams Iran uses to fund Hamas and Hizbullah, its missile proliferation - all the threats to peace and security that Iran presents." Netanyahu welcomed Hook and congratulated the U.S. for "the powerful sanctions against Iran."
