Lieberman (Washington's) warns Beijing on Iran ...

The Cable:
"...The coordination is a positive sign of cooperation between Washington and its two most important East Asian allies. At the same time, Iran watchers note that Beijing stands to profit if Chinese companies move to fill the demand gap created by the South Korean and Japanese sanctions.
Lieberman is warning that if Beijing undermines the new sanctions, Congress will move to enforce sanctions against Chinese companies using authorities provided in the recent U.S. sanctions legislation. ..."

LOL this is high comedy by Joe Lieberman.

So according to him he is in favor of sanctions on Iran... if China ignores those sanctions on Iran he is in favor of sanctions on China.

I'm sure this will end with the world ignoring sanctions on China. In which case Lieberman will be in favor of US sanctions on the world.
