Kerry Threatens to Leave Nuke Talks With No Deal
Free Beacon ^ | July 5, 2015 | Adam Kredo

Secretary of State John Kerry said on Sunday that the United States and Iran may fail to reach a final nuclear agreement despite the talks being extended past their June 30 deadline so that the sides could hash out remaining differences over the scope and scale of the Islamic Republic’s contested nuclear program.

Western observers suggested the statement from Kerry was designed to provide cover for the administration if a deal with wide-ranging concessions to Iran is struck.

Kerry told reporters in a brief press conference Sunday afternoon that he is prepared to leave town without a deal that has been viewed as the Obama administration’s biggest foreign policy priority.

Would Obama actually walk away from doing a deal with Iran and allow the Muslim Brotherhood and ISIS as being all that there is of his unprecedented, historic presidential legacy?This talk of Kerry threatening to leave the nuke talks with Iran is all a bunch of BS. It's all a charade. Obama would do a deal in a heartbeat but he has to show how he hung in there to show how tough he was to get the deal done, to show how indefatigably unyielding he was with Iran to get the deal done.

So, now, if Iran starts using their nuclear weapons, Obama can always refer to this facade of having been tough on Iran.

Probably why Obama rushed off the links today. Kerry needs to just drop it and slam sanctions on Iran. Then, slam MOABs on Iran.

Like Trump, said Kerry has absolutely no experience with negotiations and deal making, ZERO, which no doubt is why the Kenyan made him Secretary of state. The dude is dumb as a box of rocks and I can just imagine the circles the Islamo-Nazis are running around him.

If there is no deal, then Iran just races ahead trying to develop a nuclear weapon with no strings attached?

Which is pretty much the deal that Kerry was actually trying to do, right?

I thought he already did leave. Is he out of the hospital yet?

He's negotiated with nations that sponsor death squads before.

He doesn't negotiate on BEHALF of American interests.

BULL SHIT! The deal has already been made and the team of Obama and Kerry gave the Iranians every thing they wanted, this is just another dog and pony show for the American people who are pissed over the idea Iran will be allowed to build a nuclear weapon just like when the Clintoons allowed the N. Koreans to build their nuclear weapons!

Sometimes Americans just have to turn off the daily soap opera that is the socialist American hating Washington elite who keeps spoon feeding this crap to the American people!

The deal has already been made!

I believe that Kerry knows exactly what he is doing. I also believe that he and Obama are joined at the hip in hatred for what the United States of America stands for. As shown by the evidence, Kerry has betrayed and underminded the United States of America at every opportunity given him during his life. I also believe that him and Obama are doing everything in their power to give Iran nuclear weapons. And last but not least, I believe that every Obama voter, disciple, and worshiper fully sanctions their efforts in this regard.

Kabuki theater. Obama and Iran have tag teamed the rest of the negotiators other than Russia and China who didn’t need any strong arming. There will be a deal that gives Iran the Sun and the Moon including technical assistance with its “peaceful” nuclear program IMO.

Wouldn't it be better if he was still there when we blow it up?

The reality is that you are probably correct. That makes what I said of Kerry’s threat to walk out as being a charade equally true.

If Obama wanted to really score....he'd walk away from the deal. We have nothing to gain.

And no one is going to stop them from getting nukes. Just look at N Korea

Iran just wants the damn sanctions lifted....
