U.S president sanctions Iran over ballistic missiles activity.

Donald sanctions Iran after they launch ballistic missile test.
U.S President Donald Trump's administration on Friday placed new sanctions on Iran for its test of ballistic missiles last week, saying Iran defied a United Nations Security Council resolution by carrying out the test.
Earlier this week the U.S put Iran on a ''notice" list and has now followed that up more aggressively with the new sanctions - the sanctions will cover Iranian companies and individuals involved in production, resaerch and funding of the missile test, ban of those providing support to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' Qods Force, and freezing of American bank accounts and assets of people/companies involved in the missile test.
National Security Adviser Michael Flynn said the move was "provocative" and Trump has refused to rule out military action if Iran continues it's nuclear program.
"Iranian leaders must feel sufficient pressure to cease deeply destabilizing activities, from sponsoring terrorist groups to continued testing of ballistic missiles," Bi-partisan lawmakers wrote in a letter addressed to Donald Trumpon Friday.
"Full enforcement of existing sanctions and the imposition of additional sanctions on Iran for its ballistic missile program are necessary," the letter said.
The move by the U.S Treasury Department under Donald Trump's orders to sanction Iran also attracted praise from senators.
"Iran's dangerous and provocative acts are a direct threat to the United States and our allies," said House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Ed Royce in a statement. "I'm glad the administration is taking long-overdue steps to hold the regime accountable."

Because of her good heart, God almighty blessed her with a lot of natural resources. From coal to iron, aluminum, crude oil, precious stones of many types, be it gold, cement etc. With vast fertile land in which agriculture could be made easy, her children will not look for food, timber, rubber, coco etc. She is beautified by drinkable waters from the rank of streams to spring, lake and rivers. In these waters, her children will never lack any type of sea foods. No crop or grain will not germinate in her land; All you need to do is to try somewhere else. She was rich in culture; her religion was and is still love and care.   But she was so unlucky. As a bride she was forced to marry a man that hates her so much. A man that is equal to a “monster” because he had no brain nor integrity or conscienc...

See the Japanese oldest porn actress, Maori Tezuka who retires at the age of 80 but still want to comeback in two or three years time.

Maori Tezuka , a former opera singer who made her debut in Japan's 'silver porn' industry at 71 has called it a quit after 9 years.   Tezuka's decision was partly on a lack of red-blooded ' Lotharios ' able to keep up with her.

I've already been asked about returning in two or three years -- I said I'd think about it' she concluded. See some of her pictures below;

MEDIA HOUSE, when you look at what the media is doing in some other countries, how powerful they are in challenging their government’s bad policies, in promoting the interest of their country, citizens and contributing to the overall economy and growth of every aspect of their country, you begin to imagine what is actually wrong with our own media house? When you hear media names like C.N.N, B.B.C you will weep for NIGERIA! You may be forced to ask if media have different meaning for different countries. In some other countries media is a powerful tool in the hands of public through which they express their agony, joy, and other feelings they may have against the government or for the government. But in Nigeria the case is different, her media is so powerless that a journalist could be arrested and jailed without trial, some will even be killed. You will only see it on flash news and it ends there.   Nothing more!!   Police on their own side, who are suppose to be pro...
