As an Iranian I can't really blame them. They are forced to comply with the law, and unfortunately the law is very broad. Can't really blame the US government for this sort of blanket ban either because exceptions to laws create loopholes. It won't take long until people find ways to ship missile chips as educational material.

Maybe if our government didn't threaten other nations with annihilation, this sort of shit wouldn't happen to us. Who knows.

yes, you can blame our government, even when US is putting the pressure on our people, not the government. it makes prefect sense.
