		<title>ITAR Freight Forwarders</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I was a kid, my father used to provide me with a wealth of important &#8220;life lessons,&#8221; doled out in simple one-liners that I could carry with me as I grew older. One of my favorites was &#8220;If you&#8217;re going to run with the pack, make sure you&#8217;re the leader.&#8221; Another that has served [...]]]></description>

		<title>DSP-73 Export License</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What is a DSP-73 Export License?
Other than the DSP-5 Export License, the DSP-73 is the type of license I hear referenced most often in the export compliance community.
The purpose of a DSP-73 license is to allow for the temporary (not permanent) export of controlled goods regulated by the Department of State.  This means that [...]]]></description>

		<title>What is a Technical Assistance Agreement (TAA)?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Not too long ago, I helped to develop a compliance program for a well know defense contractor who&#8217;s business was the US sale of communications systems for commercial and military aircraft.  Their primary issue was not licensing for the export of their products, but rather that their sales and marketing departments were in the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Exporting Technical Data</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While exporting grenade launchers to an unfriendly nation might be a cut and dried State Department licensing procedure, a more slippery and often significantly more treacherous export is that of technical data.  With the evolution of the internet and an ever-shrinking world, this less tangible export is (in my opinion) far more dangerous to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Are OFAC embargoes truly worth the price in humanitarian costs?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 
I thought it might be time, to put the &#8220;legalities&#8221; of export controls aside, and instead, view these &#8220;controls&#8221;, whether they be BIS or OFAC&#8217;s, from the eye of the people that truly are affected-and I am not talking about American businesses, which though do have valid reasons to dispute unilateral embargoes placed by [...]]]></description>

		<title>When is a defense service, product, or data subject to ITAR?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What constitutes a defense service, product, data, et. al. subject to the International Traffic In Arms Regulation (ITAR)?
Question:
Missile Defense Agency faithfully stamps all ITAR controlled data; and, if said data is not stamped, it&#8217;s not subject to or controlled by the ITAR.  Is this correct ?
