Benjamin Netanyahu To discuss 'Bad' Iran Nuclear Deal With Donald Trump

During the US election campaign, Trump called the nuclear pact a “disaster” and “the worst deal ever negotiated”. He has also said it would be hard to overturn an agreement enshrined in a United Nations resolution.

Speaking to the Saban Forum on the Middle East in Washington via satellite from Jerusalem, Netanyahu said: “Israel is committed to preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons ... That has not changed and will not change.

“As far as President-elect Trump, I look forward to speaking to him about what to do about this bad deal.”

Netanyahu has been a harsh critic of the nuclear deal, a legacy foreign policy achievement for Barack Obama. But he had largely refrained from attacking the pact in recent months as Israeli and US negotiators finalised a 10-year, $38bn military aid package.

Yes, hard-left newspaper Guardian, the “bad” Iranian deal is a bad deal. It is only not a bad deal if you are an Iranian Mullah or a left-wing nutcase.

He can't overturn the agreement since it was with a number of countries in addition to the U.S. But he can withdraw us from it.

I hope somebody tells Trump that Corker, a person he has interviewed, is complicit in giving Obama/Kerry the power to act without Senate approval.

His (Corker's) bill allowed Senators (Cruz among them) to vote away their constitutional right of veto for that pro-Obama/Kerry, anti-Israel deal.

BTW, that one vote by Cruz alone should be enough to not ever let him near the Supreme Court as Justice

The point responsible people need to discussis the Iranian people themselves who where brutally oppressed by the government and unlike the Muslim riats in egypt and syria that was for muslim brotherhood and radical islam so it was supported by Obama the Iranian revolution was completely ignored by the press there needs to be a discussion about the people of Iran and how to make sure they can voice free opinion

Cruz voted against cloture on this bill. That only needed 40 Republicans. That was the one that should have stopped this bill cold.
