The anti-Iran sanctions portion of the bill, among other economic features, blacklists the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) and its president Ezzatollah Zarghami and will block all the IRIB assets and prevent others from doing business with it.

The sanction against IRIB is an attempt by the West to silence Iranian media. It is on top of another flagrant violation of freedom of speech by satellite providers Eutelsat SA and Intelsat SA which stopped the broadcast of several Iranian satellite channels in October.

In November, the Hong Kong-based Asia Satellite Telecommunications Co. Ltd. (AsiaSat) also took all Iranian channels off air in East Asia under pressure from the US.

Zitat:Former Canadian Ambassador to Tehran: Argo Full of Fabricated Scenes

TEHRAN (FNA)- Kenneth Douglas Taylor, the former Canadian ambassador to Iran, who was portrayed as hero in Ben Affleck's anti-Iran movie, Argo, stated that the film's Oscar-nominated screenwriter "had no idea what he's talking about".

Taylor said the film does little to dissuade notions that Iran is "one long revolution and riot," noting that "it characterizes people in a way that isn't quite right."

He said he spent almost three years in Tehran and never felt in jeopardy, describing Iranian hospitality as "warm and genuine."

"The movie maybe didn't give a chance that there's another side to Iranian society which is unfortunate - that is a more conventional side, a more hospitable side and an intent that they were looking for some degree of justice and hope and that it all wasn't just a violent demonstration for nothing," he said.

Zitat:Ayatollah Khamenei Dismisses US Promise to Annul Sanctions after Talks with Iran

"They naively think that the nation has been exhausted by the sanctions and will therefore yearn for negotiations with the US after hearing the promise and will pressure the (Iranian) officials," Ayatollah Khamenei said, addressing a large number of people in Tehran on Saturday.

"Actually, this promise is one of those deceitful remarks and indicates that they are not after holding real and fair negotiations, and rather seek the Iranian nation's surrender but (they have ignored the fact that) if the Iranian nation had wanted to be subservient to the Americans, it would not have staged the revolution originally," he added.

"As they have said several times, the goal of the sanctions is exhausting the Iranian nation and separating the nation from the Islamic Republic; hence if any talks are held but the nation remains on the scene and insists on its rights, the sanctions will remain in place," Ayatollah Khamenei stressed.
