Trump decertifies Iran nuclear deal, announces new sanctions
The Washington Times ^ | October 13, 2017 | Dave Boyer

President Trump said Friday he’s decertifying the Iranian nuclear deal forged under the Obama administration, but stopped short of ending the international agreement, instead giving Congress 60 days to take a tougher approach toward Tehran’s lawless behavior.

“We will not continue down a path whose predictable conclusion is more violence, more terror and the very real threat of Iran’s nuclear breakout,” Mr. Trump said. “Iran is not living up to the spirit of the deal.”

In an address from the White House, the president also said he’s directing the Treasury Department to sanction Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps over its support of terrorism in the Middle East, calling it a “long overdue step.”

“History has shown the longer we ignore a threat, the more dangerous that threat becomes,” the president said.

Mr. Trump, who has called the 2015 agreement signed by President Obama a “horrible” deal and threatened to rip it up, instead decided reluctantly to try to beef up the restrictions on Tehran by going to Congress.

What is wrong in bombing THEM!
Sanctions mean nothing.

If someone says they are going to kill millions then you kill them before they can try!
