How is it that the U.S. can talk and impose "sanctions" when it seems the receiving party is without means of reprisal (other than violence)?

You're asking why more powerful countries can do things that less powerful countries can't do?

This!!

How many countries are we supporting with tons of tax money? Best way to get their attention is to stop the gravy train.

We send them 100s of million dollars every year.

So, we have a pretty good lever to force them to control their populations, and that includes the invaders on their way here now.

There has never been an occasion where a people gave up their weapons in the interest of peace that didn't end in their massacre. (Louis L'Amour)

"To compel a man to furnish contributions of money for the propagation of opinions which he disbelieves and abhors, is sinful and tyrannical. "
-Thomas Jefferson
