US doesn’t have international policy that isn’t dictated by Israel
Those files are making the dude tap dance like nobody’s business.

So it's not Banque Misr, it's just their UAE branch? I'm... not sure what that's supposed to accomplish - as I understand the mid east financial landscape, this isn't going to particularly impact Iran, especially with this dipshit 30 day window that completely demolishes any credibility their claim might have had. What a fucking random move....
Canada's current scuffle with the pedo in chief is a sign of things to come worldwide. The US-MAGA foreign policy approach is... Non consensual.
The USA may be blocking Egypt today. But soon the rest of the world will have little choice but to begin sanctioning America.
Wait shit. They used the SWIFT hammer on a bank? That's big
The us giving a public comment period is not typical as I understand it.
The sanctions regime is opaque, there is no appealing a decision, it's made. That is why no one will trade in food and medicine with the disfavoured countries, they don't want to end up on the list. It's not fair and there are no checks on the USG, (us government.)
So they’ll just go all in on the yuan? That’s going to help American economic hegemony.
Hm I don't know, this feels a little like a fig leaf to justify their grand rhetoric about an "economic d-day".
It's like they want to sell voters on "look how crazy that was we even brought down the hammer on Egyptians who were sanction busting!" even though it's barely anything, and specifically nothing relating to any powerful players that really matter.
Not sure what this will accomplish exactly. It’s a branch,, not the main office. Unless they extend this to all branches including Egyptian ones then they’re just inconveniencing people.
Sounds lime a good time for countries to start dumping US treasury bonds. Lest you get attacked by the US and then can't use them
