'The Emperor Has No Clothes'
MEMRI ^ | 30/10/15 | Yigal Carmon

This MDB is dedicated to the memory of USMC pilot Captain (ret.) David Ganz, a man of honor and gallantry and a decorated officer, who passed away last week.

What Is The "Iran Nuclear Deal?"

What is mistakenly perceived as an agreement under the title of "Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action" (JCPOA), that was concluded on July 14 in Vienna, and celebrated by the White House as an "historic agreement," is neither a contract nor even a real agreement between Iran and the P5+1. It is a set of understandings and disputes compiled into a single document.

For example, the JCPOA states that in the event of Iranian violations, sanctions will be re-imposed (snapback). However, the Iranian position, which rejects all sanctions, is incorporated in the same document. In outlining the snapback of the sanctions, Article 37 also stipulates: "Iran has stated that if sanctions are reinstated in whole or in part, Iran will treat that as grounds to cease performing its commitments under this JCPOA in whole or in part."[1] This is not merely an Iranian reservation expressed outside of the negotiating room. It is incorporated into the text of this selfsame document – and one that completely contradicts preceding provisions that stipulate otherwise. Since the parties were unable to arrive at an understanding on this issue in two entire years of negotiations, they decided to resolve this major issue by incorporating this disagreement into the document itself.

....Likewise, it would not have signed any contract with any other party to the negotiations, since it views the sanctions imposed on it by United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolutions and by EU and IAEA reports as grievous injustice. By signing such an agreement, it would retroactively legitimize these wrongs done to it.

Now whether the nudity of the emperor proves a rather gross stereotype depends on your point of view. If the emperor's male member is the criterion, then the stereotype is refuted. But if the emperor is a male member, then the stereotype is vindicated, but would have been even if he were fully dressed. So nothing is proven and everything is relative, just like the question of the existence of an agreement with Iran.

It would explain why he was posing for that gay magazine.

Gay mag? Posing? Do post pic. Please. I don’t bend that way, but anything that humiliates The One has got to be good.
