Its critics argue the MOU conceded too much to Iran by unfreezing billions in Iranian assets and lifting economic sanctions before achieving a permanent, finalized deal.
Opponents express concern over the $300 billion so-called reconstruction fund. Though the U.S. is not directly contributing, hawks argue enabling such economic windfalls rewards hostile behavior.
Skeptics suggest the MOU gives up American leverage (like the naval blockade) while only requiring Iran to agree to basic, temporary de-escalation.
Some say Iran is now wielding more power over the US after Israel reassured the US bombing Iran would “weaken” the country.
The war was never about bankrupting Iran or stealing its wealth. Nor regime change, except as a tactic for accomplishing the actual goal of ending their nuclear weapon ambitions and their support of terror.
A glut of oil will soon hit the market (plus Venezuela) and the American people will know the war is over and who won.
