Earlier today President Trump announced the United States is leaving the "defective" and "terrible" Iran deal.
Former President Obama, who signed the deal in 2015 after it was rejected as a treaty by Congress, isn't happy about it.
There are few issues more important to the security of the US than the potential spread of nuclear weapons or the potential for even more destructive war in the Middle East. Today’s decision to put the JCPOA at risk is a serious mistake. My full statement: https://t.co/4oTdXESbxe— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) May 8, 2018
A long lecture has been posted on Obama's Facebook page, where he admits Iran regularly engages in bad behavior (aka terrorism).
"The JCPOA was never intended to solve all of our problems with Iran. We were clear-eyed that Iran engages in destabilizing behavior – including support for terrorism, and threats toward Israel and its neighbors," Obama said. "I believe that the decision to put the JCPOA at risk without any Iranian violation of the deal is a serious mistake. Without the JCPOA, the United States could eventually be left with a losing choice between a nuclear-armed Iran or another war in the Middle East."
1) Iran violated the agreement by lying their way into it. Specifically, lying about their secret nuclear bomb program.
2) War has been raging in Syria since the Iran deal was signed, in large part because of Iranian aggression.
3) Iran's bad behavior has been emboldened, not deterred, since the deal was signed.

Won’t be long before Øbama’s only “legacy” will be BLM.
F**k off, Hussein.
Not going to read it; had 8 years of lectures from this buffoon -— free at last, free at last, thank God Almighty, FREE AT LAST, from the curse of Barackula!
Barry SHOULD have been impeached for that.
Too bad the spineless Congress just let it happen.
Surely there was SOMEONE who could have done more than simply get themselves on TV like a celebrity and whine a little bit about it...
Funny the symbolism here
Reagan had to clean up Carters mess in Iran
Trump has to clean up Obama’s mess in Iran
I can’t stand that azzhole and his wookie wife!
Trump is simply cleaning up another obama mess.
No way. Carter wasn't that stupid. He knew how to spell Syracuse and pronousce Ob-Gyn and corpsman.
If Mr. Obama wanted the Iran agreement to be binding on the United States he should have submitted it to the Senate for ratification as a treaty. Without ratification by the Senate, it was simply an understanding between Mr. Obama and the other signatories. It was not binding on future presidents.
The former constitutional law professor needs to study up on Article II, Section 2, Clause 2: “He [the President] shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur . . .”
He should thank Trump, it was rather like taking off an unsightly lump, getting rid of that treaty.
Now he’s less likely to get stick about it in the future since it can’t become the epic fail that it would have been left untouched.
He Iran legacy is the same as his North Korean legacy: That of enabling them to get nuclear weapons.
Please go softly into that good night.
Fade, fade against the dying of the light.
