How do you know that the traffic arrives ??? :) If you see it with some 
sniffer programs (tetheral) then that is fake because those programs see 
the packets BEFORE they reach the filtering system.
You can not tell a packet not to enter your network card... :D

BTW.: What does the counters of the packets matching your rules says ??? 
(iptables -L -v -n -t mangle)
