In his address to the United Nations in New York City Monday morning, President Obama defended his administration’s nuclear agreement with Iran in the vein of 'international togetherness.'
The president said he is “mindful” of the dangers we face because they cross his desk every morning.
“I will never hesitate to protect our country, unilaterally or by force when necessary,” he said.
Yet, these dangers, he insisted, cannot be faced alone.
“But I believe in my core, we cannot return to the old ways of conflict and coercion. We cannot look backwards. We cannot turn back those forces of integration.”
Instead of acting in isolation, Obama said the United States often needs to rely on its friends.
“If we cannot work together more effectively, we will all suffer the consequences,” he said.
“No matter how powerful our military, how strong our economy, we understand the US cannot solve the world’s problems alone.”
The president said the power of international unity was best demonstrated during the administration's nuclear agreement with Iran.
Before the deal was drafted, the United States and its allies placed sanctions on Iran to “test” whether Iran could change course and that its nuclear program would be “peaceful.”
“For two years, international partners stuck together in complex negotiations,” he said. “The result is a lasting, comprehensive deal.”
“A potential war is averted,” he said. “Our world is safer. That is the strength of the international system when it works the way it should.”
Obama continued to stress the need for global unity while addressing Russia's role in the Ukraine crisis, specifically the annexation of Crimea. The president said they don’t want to isolate the country, but they want a strong Russia “working with us.”
The president is likely to expand on this topic when he meets with Russian President Vladimir Putin at the meeting of the nations later today.
The president’s first applause was received when he addressed America’s new warming relationship with Cuba, which includes the opening of air travel between the two nations.
This jackass is really mentally ill.
He is evil and far from being a lame duck. He is stepping up the demise of this formerly great Republic, destroying the fabric of society, praising perversion, demonizing those who protest- a true Alinskyite.
He sure is.
I used to laugh at people that said he was the antichrist. I’m not laughing anymore.
Trump: Iran Deal Requires U.S. Protecting Iran in Event of Israeli Strike
by Jacob Kornbluh
Sept 2, 2015
In a phone interview with CNN Tuesday evening, Trump claimed that there’s “something in the Iran deal” that “people don’t understand” saying if someone attacks Iran, “we have to come to their defense.”
“Does that include Israel?” Trump asked. “And most people say yes, they don’t have an exclusion for Israel. So if Israel attacks Iran, according to that deal, I believe, the way it reads, unless they have a codicil or they have something to it, that we have to fight with Iran against Israel.” ..."
Trump was most probably referring to language highlighted by the opponents of the deal. On page 142, the deal includes a clause that states, “Co-operation through training and workshops to strengthen Iran’s ability to protect against, and respond to nuclear security threats, including sabotage, as well as to enable effective and sustainable nuclear security and physical protection systems.”
Washington-based Center for Security Policy asserted that Annex III appears “to commit the United States and other world powers to the defense of Iran’s nuclear program.”
POS Obama is simply employing Taqiyya.
He effectively uses Taqiyya every day.
He is moslem. It is ok to lie to us infidels.
Nobody can read from a teleprompter like Bammy, nobody!!!
“...United States often needs to rely on its friends.”
WHAT ‘friends’?
He is a liar!
Delusional? That musta been me that was dreamin’ “Get your sorry asses out of the U.S.. No mofree stuff and this building is condemned.” Sigh, see. Delusional. :>}
HF
Well, the radical Islamist’s tell Obama there will certainly be peace once all the Jews and Christians are dead. So sure, it’ll be peaceful.
Or simply a saboteur's actions.
IMHO 0 is not delusional he is simply lying.
