Our fearless leader woke up early this morning to announce the completion of a deal with Iran concerning its nuclear program.
The deal includes a compromise between Washington and Tehran that would allow U.N. inspectors to press for visits to Iranian military sites as part of their monitoring duties. However, access at will to any site would not necessarily be granted and even if so, could be delayed,…
I don’t guess we have any reason to distrust a people that march through their streets chanting “Death to America” while burning our flag. Great negotiating there, SOS Kerry.
The UN is involved you say… We’ll then I guess we can declare world peace has been accomplished. It’s the same BS we had with Iraq. We want to inspect your facilities… Iraq would simply stall them out or outright refuse them. I suspect this will be much the same thing and Iran knows it.
What does anybody expect from a former community organizer? All he’s worried about now, is his “Legacy” at the expense of everything this country once stood for… The Iranians will have a bomb within the next year or so, this deal won’t stop anything. The shitstain in chief doesn’t know it yet, but he just got played by the Iranians, And Kerry, well, he’s just too damn stupid to figure it out. This is what you get when literally beg these people negotiate with you, so that your “Legacy” looks good…
Let him eat this one and veto it, so with control over both houses that veto threat really doesn’t mean anything now does it?
This might go back and prove that once again; we have one party with two names if this foolishness slides through.
Isolating Iran has created far more problems than it has solved.
I predict in a year or two American businesses will be conducting all manner of commerce with the Islamic Republic of Iran… including weapons.
Being that the Iranian backed PMF/HaS is currently the only effective tool against ISIS, there could be a net positive effect on regional stability.
Sure Israel and the Magic Kingdom won’t like it, but the days are numbered for the Apartheid regime in Tel Aviv, and the House of Saud is currently facing a reform-or-die situation (along with all the other GCC countries).
And I predict Iran will control many of Iraqs oil fields and become wealthy enough to be the next Saudi Arabia who sends the faithful to fight the Great Satan.
1.) Burning our flag and shouting “death to America” is something our own citizens do now, apparently. Not sure that’s a metric by which a government should be dealt with, but it’s certainly a problem.
2.) We cooked our own goose with Iran a long time ago, and they have every reason to hate us. I wouldn’t expect this deal to go smoothly.
3.) I think point #1’s mainstream acceptance has a lot more to do with our decline than the Iranian nuclear deal.
And finally,
4.) We already ARE back in Iraq with embedded SOF units and some very busy air assets. Lots of ordnance is being employed over there. You just aren’t hearing much about it.
The only thing that Iran can be counted on, for the time being, is to do what is in their best interests. Groups like ISIS and al-Qaeda are crazy to the point of doing things that will destroy themselves, thinking that Allah wills that they will prevail over more powerful enemies. Case and point: 9/11. While Iran does hold to a strict interpretation of Islam, and is certainly extreme in many ways, they have more common sense and a better grip on reality than most Sunni extremists. Iran would like nothing better than to march across the Middle East, destroy Israel and finish Hitler’s work on the Jews, they know they can’t right now. The difference between them and ISIS is that ISIS thinks they can take Israel and West now and is willing to do so, whereas Iran, despite all their rhetoric, knows they can’t now, but will certainly do so when they can.
However, unless Obama can put down Neville Chamberlain’s book on how to deal with dictators, they’re going to be at that point soon.
The difference will be when Iran joins the nuclear family.
And I too wish we could go back in time and not send April Glaspie to Iraq to discuss the Kuwait problem. He wasn’t a nice guy or anything, but Saddam had the closest thing to a secular democracy in the arab world. Of course a LOT of the blame rests with George Bush (41) as well, one of the worst Presidents of the 20th century.
