'US claims on Iran nuclear issue, bogus'

An analyst says US sanctions on Iran are designed to cripple the economy and isolate Iran from being able to import and export. It is an act of war. He also added that the United states and its allies were making fake claims and false propaganda on Iran's peaceful nuclear energy program.

In the background of this, the United States has imposed fresh sanctions on Iranian media despite Washington's claims of respecting free speech. Sanctions have all been applied under the umbrella of concern for Iran's nuclear program becoming militarized. The CIA and IAEA have constantly reported that Iran is not developing nuclear weapons while mainstream American media have promoted that Iran has or is producing a nuclear bomb. Many observers though contend that the many sanctions on Iran are an act of war as part of Western colonialism and imperialism that also serves the Zionists of Israel.

Press TV has interviewed Mr. Ralph Schoenman, author and political commentator, Berkeley about this issue.
