US President Barack Obama has announced fresh sanctions against Iran, Syria and those who help them use technology to perpetrate human rights abuses.

He announced the new sanctions against "digital guns for hire" in a speech at the US Holocaust Museum.

Mr Obama has also asked US intelligence groups to include assessments of the likelihood of mass killings in its co-ordinated reports.

He said: "National sovereignty is never a licence to slaughter your people."

The executive order creates sanctions against the government of Syria and Iran "and those who abet them, for using technologies to monitor, target and track its citizens for violence".

"These technologies should be in place to empower citizens, not to repress them," said Mr Obama.

So when does the Obama trash the TSA, the warrentless wiretapping, no-fly lists. Everything the Syrians are accused of doing, is the same thing that most countries around the world are doing at this very moment, tracking everyone through digital means.

The US government is already tracking information through social media as is many countries. So again the hypocrite puppet is simply trying to downplay the stuff that is happening in the USA and tries to focus on a troubled country like Syria.
