On issue after issue over a potential nuclear deal with Iran, the Obama administration has caved.
An analysis from the Foreign Policy Initiatives Tzvi Khan published June 29 laid out the myriad ways the United States has fallen short, misled, or simply kowtowed on sanctions, uranium enrichment, Irans breakout capacity, whether Iran could be a good actor, and more.
resident Obama claimed in his 2015 State of the Union address to have halted Irans nuclear program and reduced its stockpile, sweeping and inaccurate claims for which he earned three Pinocchios from the Washington Post fact-checker.
On April 2, when Obama touted the framework agreement and historic understanding between Iran and world powers, he claimed Iran has also agreed to the most robust and intrusive inspections and transparency regime ever negotiated for any nuclear program in history.
Reports emerged in the weeks and months following that the United States had backed off this demand and Iran would not be subjected to the anytime, anywhere inspections that many experts deem a red line in any negotiations.
Obama also repeatedly said he would not take any option off the table when it came to preventing Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, until an interview he gave with Israeli television May 29 which effectively signaled to Tehran that was no longer something they had to fret.

How many do you suppose will die when his lies enable Iran to get nuclear weapons?

While Hussein tries to cement his "legacy" by securing a deal with Iran, the REAL result will be at least one American city, and probably Israel, as a radioactive hole in the ground.
Obama isn’t caving...he is cooperating. Big difference in desired outcome.
Duh... they don’t have a deal yet so there will be plenty more caving until they do.
Barky and Skerry are negotiating FOR Iran.
They are negotiating for Valerie Jarrett.The woman behind the curtain is no better than Jezebel. Hopefully Valerie gets the same treatment as Jezebel, falls from the wall, the birds of prey pick her bones clean so there is nothing to bury.

The only time Iran halted its nuclear weapons program was following the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq. The mullahs realized Bush was serious and feared they’d be next. Likewise, Libya that same year gave up its WMD after Muammar Gaddafi saw on TV Saddam Hussein being dragged out of his spider hole by U.S. troops.
