Then why was there such a lousy deal with Iran?
The Iran deal is to empower Iran. The moslem brotherhood is calling the shots. Ask Them.
Because if you make a deal with the devil, you end up getting burned. The Saudis got burned. Basically their ISIS forces got out of control and started attacking Iraq. That forced the Obama administration to cut a deal with Iran. Iran would go all in against ISIS. They have lost a number of generals in the process. Then the Sauds upped the game by sending more weapons to ISIS. At that point the Russians had enough with the whole cluster puck. They walked into the US embassy in Iraq and told the US they would start bombing ISIS in three hours. And that is where we are in the opening stages of WWIII. Btw - If you are living in a big US city, you probably should move out to the country soon. The fresh air will do you some good.
