>By PWC

>We, the signatories herein, comprised of concerned citizens
>including members of the scientific community in the USA
>and other countries, are appalled and outraged to witness
>the unilateral economic sanctions of 1998 and its ruling
>by the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets
>Control (OFAC) that effectively prohibits publication of
>scientific papers from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Sudan, and Cuba,
>all of which are under U.S. trade embargoes. We do,
>however,
>trustfully anticipate that with feedbacks as exemplified by
>this petition and the actions taken by the professional and
>learned societies as typified by the American Chemical
>Society, IEEE and AAAS, and publishers of scientific
>periodicals, that the Government will reverse this outdated
>policy immediately.
