Obama will be the only person sticking to Iran deal
New York Post ^ | 10/11/2015 | Amir Taheri

Posted on 10/11/2015 9:14:02 AM PDT by mojito

Sometime this week, President Obama is scheduled to sign an executive order to meet the Oct. 15 “adoption day” he has set for the nuclear deal he says he has made with Iran. According to the president’s timetable the next step would be “the start day of implementation,” fixed for Dec. 15.

But as things now stand, Obama may end up being the only person in the world to sign his much-wanted deal, in effect making a treaty with himself.

The Iranians have signed nothing and have no plans for doing so. The so-called Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) has not even been discussed at the Islamic Republic’s Council of Ministers.

[....]

Nor have Britain, China, Germany, France and Russia, who were involved in the so-called P5+1 talks that produced the JCPOA, deemed it necessary to provide the Obama “deal” with any legal basis of their own. Obama’s partners have simply decided that the deal he is promoting is really about lifting sanctions against Iran and nothing else.

[....]

Both Obama and his Secretary of State John Kerry have often claimed that, its obvious shortcomings notwithstanding, their nuke deal with the “moderate faction” in Tehran might encourage positive changes in Iran’s behavior.

That hasn’t happened.

The mullahs see the “deal” as a means with which Obama would oppose any suggestion of trying to curb Iran.

“Obama won’t do anything that might jeopardize the deal,” says Ziba Kalam, a Rouhani adviser. “This is his biggest, if not the only, foreign policy success.”

0bama has deliberately and by design carved out a foreign policy that has as its goal the undermining and humiliation of the United States.

It seems this goal is so important to 0bama that he doesn't seem to mind if he is personally humiliated in the process.

Worth reading the whole thing.

Lyin’ king sticking to the deal. That would be letting them do whatever they want unfettered by any interference from the U.S.? Isn’t that what john f’n kohn-heinz-kerry agreed to? You do whatever you like to arm up and we’ll be busy trying to disarm the American public. Yeah, that’s it.

A legend in his own mind. An insufferable fool.

One must remember that, to Obama, success is anything that makes the U.S. weaker in the world, especially against the Muslim world.

Iran has flushed Obama with their new tight relationship with Putin. Who needs nukes?

Obama is looking like yesterday's left over grits.

He is irrelevant, on the world's stage and here at home.

You know, you read an article like this and one could surmise that obama is the incompetent that every one knows him to be. But, then you take into account all the other stuff he has done over the years to undermine the US, his inability to make a decision when one has to be made and his blaring indifference/hatred for this country and it all makes sense.

He is the most incompetent person to ever hold any office. And that’s saying a lot given the fact that the Dem party has Waters, Lee, Pelosi, Holmes, etc etc etc.
He is definitely not acting in America’s interests.
He is definitely acting in the interest of the Muslim Brotherhood and radical islam. If one wants to argue that, please explain why the only people he is deporting are Christian Syrians, while letting in every 3rd world degenerate.

Perhaps, when he’s gone, we’ll get luck and an intrepid reporter or two will finally delved into what he really is. That is, if they can survive.

For him to stick to the deal, though, he’ll first have to read it. Maybe he can get pelosi to help.

When he has Boehner and McConnell to do his bidding, does it matter if 0dingo is “irrelevant”?

If intentional and unprovoked surrender was a success, I guess you could call it that.

Funny thing about all of this is Obama is a Sunni, giving a Shiite regime the ability to create a nuke to launch at the Sunni’s. Russia won’t let Israel get hit because it removes a key barrier for Russia to protect its own interests.

That’s why an Iranian general was sacrifices this week. It is a reminder to Iran to keep its eye on the ball. My bet is those Russian generals in Tel Aviv were discussing Israel’s security in the face of a mounting Sunni attack on Syria.

Yes, mojito, even the US can experience an A-bomb on its soil....and Obama can say, “I didn’t know.”

This is the most confusing political brew since the Spanish Civil War.
