Clinton: New deal an ‘important step in putting the lid on Iran’s nuclear program’
The Washington Post's Post Politics ^ | July 14, 2015 | Paul Kane and Jose A. DelReal

Democratic presidential front runner Hillary Rodham Clinton on Tuesday called the Iranian nuclear deal announced by the Obama administration an "important step" in curtailing the country's nuclear program but stressed that the agreement will have to be "enforced vigorously, relentlessly."

"This is a very important moment. The president called me late last night to tell me that agreement has been reached. I applaud him and both Secretary Kerry and Secretary Moniz for their extraordinary efforts in bringing about this conclusion," she told reporters after a meeting with the House Democratic caucus on Capitol Hill. "Based on what I know now, and I will be being briefed as soon as I finish addressing you, this is an important step in putting the lid on Iran’s nuclear program."

Clinton was on Capitol Hill Tuesday for a series of meetings with Democratic lawmakers, a gesture designed to strengthen Clinton's support among Hill Democrats, many of whom already support her candidacy....

This deal puts the lid on NOTHING. It rolls out the red carpet for Iran to go nuclear and guarantees that the Saudis do as well. It also pretty much guarantees that someone is gonna get nuked by someone pretty soon.

For all the left's caterwauling in my lifetime about the dangers of nuclear war they seem in an unseemly rush to embrace the coming age which will see immensely greater risk.

The only silver lining is that cities will be targets and leftists live in cities.

“I agree. There’s no option now. The Arabs states and Israel must act now.”

If I were the religious fanatic ready to go down in nuclear hellfire, especially relating to this “boy in the well” cult, I would try to hit both the Great Satan and Israel if it were my final act.

Border patrol reports Muslim illegal aliens probing our borders and it escapes the national news. Obama imports Muslim refugees in this age of photo shopped documents. We know Iran is accelerating their nuclear program.

What if they use their ballistic missile progress as a shell game, we question whether they have the bomb, but assure ourselves they don’t have the delivery system if they did. BUT all the while they multiply their output, build a suitcase bomb, send it over our porous borders. If one of our cities is incinerated or dirty bombed, and they threaten many more, a quisling administration would have a basis for doing nothing when Tel Aviv becomes a crematorium.

If we do nothing, Iran takes the middle east and our dhimmitude. If we let fly, they get their fifty virgin goats in heaven. Win win. Buy I think they would gamble we do nothing. We make concessions. Then every Muslim in Europe and China rises up...wouldn’t it have blown our fathers/grandfathers minds if it were Russia holding the last stand, fighting the good fight.

Sorry got carried away...gonna post anyway ;)

If at the conclusion of the primaries, there is a Jeb or a Chris left, it’s already too late. I don’t know about you, but I certainly wouldn’t refer to such a primary outcome as “our candidate”, since a logical argument could be made to prove either of those two as libtards.

Needs to be repeated in the context of these ridiculous negotiations with Iran.

"President William J. Clinton, October 18, 1994: The United States has been concerned about the possibility that North Korea was developing nuclear weapons since the 1980’s. Three administrations have tried to bring this nuclear program under international control. There is nothing more important to our security and to the world’s stability than preventing the spread of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles. And the United States has an unshakeable commitment to protect our ally and our fellow democracy South Korea. Thirty-eight thousand American troops stationed on the Peninsula are the guarantors of that commitment. Today, after 16 months of intense and difficult negotiations with North Korea, we have completed an agreement that will make the United States, the Korean Peninsula, and the world safer. Under the agreement, North Korea has agreed to freeze its existing nuclear program and to accept international inspection of all existing facilities. This agreement represents the first step on the road to a nuclear-free Korean Peninsula. It does not rely on trust.”

My gawd, how naive were Billy boy and Madeline Alldumb? Unlike Obama, I think they were just stupid peaceniks to believe North Korea would honor the agreement. Anyone other than me saw the pic of Madeline Alldumb and Kim Jung Il toasting about their peaceful nuke pact? Well, guess who has nukes now? Ronald Reagan: "Trust but verify".

While I know that Obama is a socialist and doesn't believe in USA superiority, how he and Kerry make the same mistake is beyond me. Don't they realize that once out of office the White House bunker and other secure locations will be off-limits to them? They may have a couple SS Agents around them, providing they're not off partying, but they won't keep Obama&Family from going 1,000,000 degrees in his west and east coast mansions.

The above is why I believe that every male and female of age should spend time in the military for a true perspective on how many bad guys are out there, much like the Iraeli IDF. I also believe that all Fedgov politicians should have served. But then, it didn't help 3 purple hearts in 6 months Cambodian Kerry. However, I believe him to be the exception to the rule.

Clinton: New deal an ‘important step in putting the lid on Iran’s nuclear program’


Clinton is confusing a lid with a shield.

And make no mistake , Obama’s is shielding Irans’ nuclear weapons and ballistic missile program and not just allowing Iran, but also funding Iran's acquisition nuclear weapons and the necessary ballistic missile system to deploy it.

Since Iran collaborates with North Korea on it's nuclear weapons and missile programs, Obama has also facilitated and enabled the Nuclear programs of North Korea and probably other rouge states as well.

Obama has also fired the decisive shot of the starter’s gun on a new arms race in the Middle East to acquire and proliferate both conventional and Nuclear weapons in the Middle East.

In doing so, Obama has set the stage for an inevitable military confrontation between Israel and Iran to ignite a WW III in the Middle East, possibly as soon as the end of this decade.

your assumption is that they don’t already have them

I see no reason to make such an assumption

being prudent men but careful about what they reveal, I assume that Saudi Arabia already has nuclear weapons obtained from Pakistan some time ago

‘important step in putting the lid on Iran’s nuclear program’

What I see is a deal that legitimized Iran and their nuclear ambitions without them ever even admitting they had a program.

Since Iran collaborates with North Korea on it's nuclear weapons and missile programs, Obama has also funded and enabled the Nuclear programs of North Korea and probably other rouge states as well by proxy.

Obama has also fired a loud , clear shot of the starter’s gun, heard by the entire world, on a new arms race in the Middle East to acquire and proliferate both conventional and Nuclear weapons in the Middle East.

In doing so, Obama has set the stage for an inevitable military confrontation between Israel and Iran to ignite a WW III in the Middle East, possibly as soon as the end of this decade.

If this happens, it is probable that much of the regions oil production infrastructure will be damaged or destroyed which will put a brake on worldwide agricultural, manufacturing, and energy output leading to shortages of food and manufactured goods, creating job loss leading to massive economic chaos
