WASHINGTON, DC -- U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) released the following statement on the interim agreement on Iran's nuclear program:
"According to the interim agreement regarding Iran’s nuclear program that was reached this weekend in Geneva, not one centrifuge will be destroyed. Not one pound of enriched uranium will leave Iran. Not one American unjustly detained in Iran's notorious prisons will be released. But Iran will start to receive, in a matter of days, $7 billion in relief from international economics sanctions.
"All the smiling embraces between diplomats after the interim deal was signed notwithstanding, the Iranian regime remains a brutal and oppressive dictatorship that pursues nuclear weapons for the purpose of dominating the Middle East and threatening America and our allies, notably Israel. President Obama and Secretary Kerry should reconsider their policy of rapprochement with Iran that is dismaying to Jerusalem and encouraging to Tehran. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu predicted this agreement would be a 'very, very bad deal' and has now correctly identified it as an 'historic mistake.' Meanwhile, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani tweeted his satisfaction as the 'breaking down the architecture for sanctions has begun.' The administration has gotten it backwards and it is time to reverse course before any further damage is done."
Ted Cruz Ping!
If you want on/off this ping list, please let me know.
Please beware, this is a high-volume ping list!
LOL , when has Obama ever done anything Right , Obama goes from one disaster to another
Didn’t treaties used to have to be ratified by the Senate?
HF
Yeah, but most of them didn’t involve a mushroom cloud over Jerusalem, New York City, Miami and Dallas.
That was during the Old Republic.
Only until the morons of America voted for Adolf Hitler II twice.
I have read that the new treaty allows them to repair and restore some of the old Centrifuges that are not now working.

WTF??? What idiot would agree to this??
Well we know don’t we.
John F’in traitor Kerry and Hussein, Muslim, Obama.
Obama will go down in history as America’s Neville Chamberlain.
Neville Chamberlain brought Britain **this** close to total destruction and subjugation to the Nazis. Can we afford to risk that we’ll survive?
Senator Cruz, as always, is spot on. This terrible deal accomplishes nothing but allows Iran to continue unabated in its goal to acquire nuclear weapons.
I have 364 days in the Iranian Nuclear Explosion pool. The Dems are only worried if it will affect the 2014 elections.
I thought Cruz smarter than this. The little islamist is exactly where he wants to be at this point.
He has to frame it that way for the people who don’t follow the news or politics, unlike us.
Did you notice that media and the WH are going to great lenghts NOT to call it a "treaty"?
They call it an 'agreement', a 'deal' or a 'pact', but never a 'treaty'.
These guys are slippery...
That deal was a historic mistake and a very deadly/dangerous one!
You mean the great consensus of 6 nations? How many did Bush have for Iraq? 49?
