So America IS trading with Iran ... US sent nearly $2m worth of bull semen to Muslim state last year
Strict trade sanctions have been in place between the U.S. and Iran since the Carter administration
Bovine sperm side-steps the usual sanctions since it qualifies as humanitarian aid
Iran has made it a goal to become self-sufficient in meat production by the year 2016
Altogether the U.S. sent $45.7million in humanitarian aid to Iran last April. While the number seems like a lot, it's nothing compared to the $26.2billion sent to our biggest trading partner - Canada.
Bovine sperm side-steps the usual rules against trade between the two nations since it qualifies as humanitarian aid.
It's not the most exported item to Iran, but it's still in the top 10. Foods like rice, lentils, chickpeas and butter top the list.
In addition to sending food, the U.S. sends products to help Iran make their own, like vegetable and fruit seeds, fertilizer and animal feed.
The bovine semen is one part of that effort, helping to sire more cows as beef production has become an important issue in Iran.
The country has made it a goal to be self-sufficient in all types of meat production by 2016, and they plan on investing the equivalent of $735 million U.S. dollars into the industry over the next three years according to Global Meat News.

"US Sent Nearly $2M Worth of Bull Semen to Muslim State Last Year" ... The REAL reason has gotta be milkshakes for the mullahs. What else could put a smile on the face of an ayatollah?
They already have enough shiite.
It’s a plot to lure the Hindus into Iran to worship the cows so the Iranians can slaughter the Hindus.
Now that we have the “deal” with them we can just send them Coffeemate directly...
That’s a job they give to the new cowhands: milkin’ the bulls.
A fair exhange - we send them bull semen and they send us the other mass bull excretion.
Thanks, Obama.
TPTB can trade no matter what, we cannot.
Why are we sending our money anywhere?
“$26.2billion sent to our biggest trading partner - Canada.” Why?
Oil? Grain? Autos?
But apparently not enough BS. At least they had enough sense shop the best BS source.
“...$2m worth of bull semen...”
The -murderous, subhuman muzzie army travels on its stomach...
Poor bulls! They gotta spooge up their tube glue so some muzzie can gargle it? Insanity!!!!
By golly, those persians will drink anything.
I guess as long as it wasn’t fermented...
Bartender, another Mountain Oyster cocktail for my frien.
That’s a drop in the bucket. It goes for 2 Mil/oz.
Should have “accidently” mixed it up with pig semen. That could lead to some interesting, really funny stuff!
What ever happened to “Snot”??
Does any body know if he is still alive??
Shouldn’t be hard for rancher freepers to find out who sold it and whether or not they knew where it was going. Boycott their stanky ejaculate.
Unfortunatly, big Agro has pretty much been coopted by Leviathan. Cant upset that Ethanol gravy train now can we?
