Team Obama has been quietly easing Sanctions on Iran since their New President was elected

The White House began easing economic sanctions that have crippled Iran for five years not long after its new president was elected in June — and months before Hassan Rouhani and President Barack Obama talked by telephone in September, State Department documents show. 
The United States has done everything but stopped blacklisting individuals and companies that Iran evade international sanctions since Rouhani's election on June 14, The Daily Beast reports.
And the Obama administration has been doing less of that since the election, despite claims to the contrary, the website reports. 
[...] 
“For five months, since Rouhani’s election, the United States has offered Iran two major forms of sanctions relief,” Dubowitz said. “First, there’s been a significant slowdown in the pace of designations, while the Iranians are proliferating the number of front companies and cutouts to bust sanctions.” 
The other way is through the Obama administration's opposition to new sanctions that have strong support on Capitol Hill.

What is Obama doing. I hope this new appeasement is just a fake-out, and that Obama is really planning the big attack. He sure needs a game-changer. lol
