(Algemeiner) Barney Breen-Portnoy - Rep. Ed Royce (R-Calif.), chairman of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, and Rep. Eliot Engel (D-NY), the ranking Democratic on the committee, on Wednesday called for a new look at U.S. policy toward Iran. Royce said, "I think we should be tightening the sanctions against the IRGC [Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps]. I think we respond to Iran's ballistic missile production demonstrably...[and] begin to rebuild international sanctions on Iran. We need to rebuild the consensus that the regime is a bad actor, so that means doing more to highlight what's going on internally in Iran, which is a human rights nightmare." Engel said, "Iran needs to suffer consequences for its dangerous behavior....We should slam the door, be firm with them and make them understand that we're not going to put up with their nonsense." He added that "one of the ways we can show Iran we mean business is we can keep up our close alliance with Israel." 2017-02-02 00:00:00Full Article
