Like their American lib/Dem bedfellows, Iran projects like crazy.
18?
What happened? Did we miss a payment to them?
How can they “abandon” something they never signed in the first place?
And interesting they cite “18 violations”, given who the national socialists say whose name that number represents.
18 is the number of 2 week periods that President Trump has been in office; In their view, we violated the agreement by electing him and not Hillary. Of course, I don’t think they had any intention to comply with the agreement when they signed it.
What are they doing now, trolling Hillary? Wonderful, a pissing contest between Hillary and the Mullahs on who is the most dishonest.
I say crap hits the fan by 1 Jan. They don’t like fighting in the heat.
[ Khamenei promised to continue building Iran’s ballistic missile program, which has been an ongoing source of international tension. ]
I’m sure he did.
I don’t think there is anyone on the planet, including the signatories and authors, that knows what compliance would have actually been. It was a box to check and news story to run in an attempt to have a legacy of some accomplishment for Obama.
I don’t think there was ever any expectation that anything would be made safer or thwart Iran from accomplishing their goals.
We should violate obamas agreement by bombing Iran and killing their leaders.
I concur.
Iran wants to repudiate the deal?
That’s like telling your boss that you quit right after he fires you.

Lets face facts and the strategic realities behind the “nuclear agreement”. When Iran obtained state of the art stealthy Chinese made shore to ship missiles, complete with encrypted American designed guidance systems courtesy of the Clinton Administration, they fortified the shores of the narrow shallow Persian Gulf. In the event of shooting, perhaps brought on by an attack on Iranian nuclear facilities, the big blue water capital ships of the US Navy faced a debacle in the Gulf worse than Pearl Harbor in less than 15 minutes. Those missiles, designed by the Chinese to control the Taiwan Straits, would have a flight time to target of less than 30 seconds. Also the Iranians have deployed mobile stealthy land to land missiles threatening Israel. the Israelis no doubt have good intelligence and would try to destroy them before an attack on Iran but they probably have concluded that they cannot destroy all and their “iron dome” anti missile system might not be effective. Just three or four of those missiles striking population centers like Tel Aviv or Hebron would be catastrophic. Face it. The Chinese who view all of Asia as their domain saw an opportunity in Iran to put the US and Israel on the defensive and exercised it.Today’s Chinese leaders, not unlike the leaders of Japan in the 1930’s, bitterly resent Westerners interfering economically, diplomatically and militarily in Asian affairs. Far fetched? Reflect a bit on what has and is happening.
Obama and Hillary's deliberate intentions were to appease the Russians, despite all their smoke & mirrors huffing and puffing. Iran and North Korea are Putin's pawns. Doesn't require a great leap of logic to tie all of this together.
Former Senator Al DAmato (R-NY) dropped a bomb on Sunday Morning Futures this AM. DAmato told Maria Bartiromo that Hillary allowed Russia to take ownership of US uranium so they could sell it to Iran.
Hillary made it possible for the Russians to take control of one of our huge uranium producers and allow them to own the company, export the uranium and who do they sell the uranium to? Iran!
Now if people knew that and that the foundation as a result of that got $135 million. I think people would start saying, What?
Its true.
In January 2013, Pravda celebrated the Russian atomic energy agencys purchase of the company Uranium One in Canada.
That same company, Uranium One, owned uranium concessions in the United States. Because uranium is a strategically important commodity, the Russians would need approval from the Obama administration, including Hillarys State Department, before the purchase took place.
Nine shareholders in Uranium One just happened to provide more than $145 million in donations to the Clinton Foundation in the run-up to State Department approval.
The Clintons took the cash from Uranium One officials before the deal was approved by Hillary Clintons State Department. The Clintons hid the donations which is a clear violation of the Memorandum of Understanding Hillary Clinton signed with the Obama administration wherein she promised and agreed to publicly disclose all donations during her tenure as Secreatary of State. (Via Breitbart)
The New York Times reported on the crooked deal in 2015.
As the Russians gradually assumed control of Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records show, a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation. Uranium Ones chairman used his family foundation to make four donations totaling $2.35 million. Those contributions were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons, despite an agreement Mrs. Clinton had struck with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors. Other people with ties to the company made donations as well.
And then theres this...
Senator John Barrasso (R-WY) told Greta Van Susteren the deal Hillary approved gave Putin ownership of 20 percent of US uranium and Russia sells uranium to unfriendly countries, including Iran.

Remember those side deals Obama forged with Iran that were not part of the text of the official treaty? Now we are finding out some of the details.
Yesterday, the Washington Free Beacon reported that Iranian officials confirmed they have received at least $10 billion in cash, commodities, and assets from Washington since 2013. And that is likely a conservative estimate.
But cash is not the only thing the Islamic Republic of Iran is receiving for gracing us with their willingness to sign onto our own capitulation.
The AP is reporting that Russia, with the support of President Obama, is shipping Iran 116 metric tons of natural uranium.
While Iranian officials have obviously declined to disclose the use of such uranium, AP notes that this is enough to enrich weapons-grade uranium for nuclear bombs:
Despite present restrictions on its enrichment program, however, the amount of natural uranium is significant should Iran decide to keep it in storage, considering its potential uses once some limits on Tehrans nuclear activities start to expire in less than a decade.
David Albright, whose Institute of Science and International Security often briefs U.S. lawmakers on Irans nuclear program, says the shipment could be enriched to enough weapons-grade uranium for more than 10 simple nuclear bombs, depending on the efficiency of the enrichment process and the design of the nuclear weapon. ...

From Real Clear Politics, Sept 10, 2015...
"In a 2014 New Yorker interview, Obama said his goal was to create a 'new equilibrium' in the Middle East.
In the short run, at least, his signature diplomatic undertaking can be counted on to bring more violence to this volatile region.
The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, as the [Obama-Putin Iran deal] agreement is formally known, provides the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism an infusion of somewhere in the neighborhood of $100 billion of unfrozen assets and a great deal more of continuing revenues as businesses and governments around the world rush to profit from oil-and-gas-rich Iran's reintegration into the world economy.
The agreement relaxes the international isolation of the Islamic Republic and ratifies Tehran's status as a nuclear threshold state. And it relieves restrictions on Iran's acquisition of weapons, including ballistic missiles. ..."
Bttt.

This actually makes me sick.
We paid Iran so they could buy our Uranium from Russia.
Brilliant.

“The Washington Free Beacon describes itself as a nonprofit online newspaper. Published by the Center for American Freedom (CAF), a right-wing advocacy group chaired by media pundit and political strategist Michael Goldfarb, the Beacon has close ties to the neoconservative flagship journal the Weekly Standard. The Standards contributing editor Matthew Continetti serves as the Beacons editor and chief, while Standard editor Bill Kristol sits on CAF’s board.”
These are just the same old neocons pushing the same old war with Iran they have been pushing for many years.
Deliberate sabotage on the part of the former hate-America prez.
[Former Senator Al DAmato (R-NY) dropped a bomb on Sunday Morning Futures this AM. DAmato told Maria Bartiromo that Hillary allowed Russia to take ownership of US uranium so they could sell it to Iran.]
Obama knew what he was doing. Obama and Eric Holder knew what Hillary was doing. Yes, a whole criminal enterprise they had going on there.
I wonder who the idiot was who added “iranophobia” to the key words for this thread? Any idea?
We’re dealing with Iranian bumpins who got used handling our previous, more ‘sophisticated’ president using a crude Persian bazaar hustle. Time to change the game.
