The Western sanctions have nothing to do with that, they are about the imaginary nuclear military program that 16 US intelligence agencies have assessed as discontinued since 2003, our Western "free press" and politicians without any agenda have yet to notice that little fact. Meanwhile some of the most nauseous dictatorships worldwide -Saudi Arabia, etc- are US and Western allies, proving the mostly complete duplicity and hypocrisy of a large part of their foreign policy. Just saying.
"U.S. intelligence agency officials interviewed by The New York Times in March 2012 said they continued to assess that Iran had not restarted its weaponization program, which the 2007 National Intelligence Estimate said Iran had discontinued in 2003" (wikipedia, NYT "U.S. Faces a Tricky Task in Assessment of Data on Iran", March 17, 2012)
couldn't agree you more, it is the US policies make things worse and it is all for appeasing Israel. US certainly knows that they have discontinued but they don't seem to admit it because they want to invade the country too just like they did with Iraq with "WMD".

I must say, I had given the idea of Apple selling their stuff in Iran nary a thought.
