WASHINGTON, Oct. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The
American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) today filed a number of
formal Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests – a new round of
legal demands to the bureaucracy aimed at bringing those Obama-era
flaws and secrets to light.
In a blog post by ACLJ Executive Director Jordan Sekulow, the ACLJ's demands are
clear:
"We are demanding that four key agencies involved with the Iran
Deal – the State Department, the Department of the Treasury, the
National Security Agency (NSA), and the Office of the Director of
National Intelligence (ODNI) – give us the records that will show
what they knew about Iran Air's use of civilian airliners to
transport military personnel and equipment. What they knew
matters because, in the Iran Deal, they agreed to let Boeing and
other plane manufacturers sell airplanes to Iranian airliners like
Iran Air."
"In these new FOIA requests, we are demanding:
all records concerning the connection between the Joint
Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), OFAC licenses issued to
Boeing and Airbus allowing agreements for well over 200 jets, U.S.
government knowledge of Iran's
past use or intended or possible future use of Iran Air jets to
transport military personnel and/or equipment, and any discussions
prior to the JCPOA concerning Iran Air's use or possible use of
jets for those purposes."
The complete post about the ACLJ's latest FOIA requests is
available here.
Led by Chief Counsel Jay Sekulow, the American Center for Law
and Justice (ACLJ), focusing on constitutional law, is based in
Washington, D.C. and is online at
