Scattered around the U.S. Capitol complex are a series of Sensitive Compartmentalized Information Facilities, or SCIFs, which are typically used to hold Top Secret information.
But today in these deeply secure settings are a series of unclassified documents—items dealing with the Iran nuclear deal that are not secret, but that the Obama administration is nevertheless blocking the public from reading.
The Obama administration delivered 18 documents to Congress on July 19, in accordance with legislation requiring a congressional review of the nuclear deal. Only one of these documents is classified, while the remaining 17 are unclassified.
Yet many of these unclassified documents cannot be shared with the public or discussed openly with the press.

The most transparent administration, ever!

It is treason against the American people.
This should be an impeachable offense on its face: at no time should the unclassified details of an international agreement critical to our safety be concealed.
He and his puppetiers are undermining the American people and America you can bet on it

Indeed. I wonder what the Rainbow Mullah would do if Israel sent bombers on a one way trip to “cleanse” the Iranian sites
Remember: Congress knelt
The “Secret Protocols” to any treaty are the ones that have the dirt in them. They are the sausage hidden within the casing.
Obama is selling out America to the Iranian enemy.
We don’t need to read it to know it is a bad treaty. If it was a good treaty it could be published for all the American people to read, and explained by those who proposed it.
The fact that it is a secret deal make it a bad deal. And worse, the very idea of a secret treaty goes against every American founding principle. We should never have kowtowed to the Iranian regime.
The terrorists are winning this war because they have caused us to sacrifice many of the ideals that we hold dear and that make our country great.
