Terrorism, brought to you by Mac 'n Cheese and Cola companies

The US is tough on terrorism.

How tough on terrorism?

Very tough.

But just not as tough as we are business friendly.

Apparently, the almighty dollar matters even more than NOT supporting nations that are officially designated by the US government as sponsors of terrorism.

From the article:

"At the behest of a host of companies — from Kraft Food and Pepsi to some of the nation’s largest banks — a little-known office of the Treasury Department has made nearly 10,000 exceptions to American sanctions rules, approving deals involving countries that have been cast into economic purgatory, beyond the reach of American business."

Enjoy your mac 'n cheese and cola!
