Protests in Iran

I think Great Britain definitely had the right to cut financial ties with Iran. Britain did this because Iran was not meeting certain requirements related to termination of its nuclear program. In doing so Britain hoped that Iran would end its nuclear program. But, too much dismay, Iran did not respond as it was thought that they would. Instead, mobs of mainly young Iranian students attacked the British embassy. Iranian security forces were supposed to be in charge of the protection of the embassy and they supposedly tried to but the thousand man mob was too much for them to handle and they stormed the embassy. The Prime Minister of Great Britain, David Cameron, denounced the attack and described it as "outrageous and indefensible" and he demanded the Iranian security forces immediately ensure the protection of its personnel. The week before the attack occurred, the U.N. reported that Iran’s nuclear program could be militarily motivated therefore Britain had a definite right to cease economic ties with Iranian banks as a threat to stop Iran from pursuing its nuclear program.
