It is illegal for an American company to do business in IRAN...

so what's your point?

The other thing that might be interesting to discuss is how a company that employs many former US governement officials is actively working to circumvent measure put in place by said governement...

Also, arent the people helping the terrorists the enemies of the USA? Isnt Iran part of that oh-so threatening and terrorist friendly axis of evil?

Without taking sides on anything, it definitely is an interesting topic. You can prevent having to do any real thinking by saying "Its capitlism, and its great", or you can try and see the different angles...

There is no point actually - they're just spouting lip service...if you take a look at what they're whining about.

Is it illegal for a company to do business with a company that does business with Iran?

Beasty is generally considered Illegal in the US...are these folks gonna stop or demand others/their affiliates stop submitting galleries/buying advertising from the hun cause he allows beast?

That would be a truly moralistic statement. They'll never do business with any company that does business with another company that deals with things that might be illegal in your country....

Better yet, which of you true blue fuckers will return all your dialer charges from Iran? Hypocrisy is hillarious.
