Secretary of State John Kerry: 'We are not blind' on Iran "......Kerry said the United States must demonstrate some "good faith" in the negotiations to get something out of Iran. He added that, "We are not blind, and I don't think we're stupid" about giving away too much..........."
Thank God France was there. I never thought I’d ever say that.

This certainly illustrates just how far we have fallen.
Who are are allies on the world stage - our former adversaries?

An Executive Order?
When France is the bulwark of freedom and the USA is represented by J F’n Kerry to sell out to Iran, you realize how far our country has fallen. Shameful.
The French foreign minister, Laurent Fabius, told France Inter radio yesterday that Paris would not accept a ‘sucker’s deal’.
Who are the biggest suckers? The American electorate...
Fat chance !
Kerry wants the world to know that he’s working to assure what is best for the “United States and the globe”...
