French President Emmanuel Macron warned on Sunday that war could ensue if U.S. President Donald Trump withdraws from the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran, Reuters reported.
“We would open the Pandora’s box. There could be war,” Macron was quoted as having told German weekly magazine Der Spiegel.
At the same time he added, “I don’t think that Donald Trump wants war.”
Trump has imposed a May 12 deadline to reimpose sanctions on Iran unless the flaws in the existing agreement are fixed. …

He sounds like a child. “But Mommy, THIS could happen! Or, that could happen! I’m SO SCARED!”
Thank God for our STRONG leader. Trump is like the world’s daddy!
I can not recommend to your notice measures for the fulfillment of our duties to the rest of the world without again pressing upon you the necessity of placing ourselves in a condition of complete defense and of exacting from them the fulfillment of their duties toward us.Washington paraphrased that adage from De Re Militari in his Fifth Annual Address to Congress. Ancient wisdom was not lost on the Father of the Country.
The United States ought not to indulge a persuasion that, contrary to the order of human events, they will forever keep at a distance those painful appeals to arms with which the history of every other nation abounds.
There is a rank due to the United States among nations which will be withheld, if not absolutely lost, by the perception of weakness. If we desire to avoid insult, we must be able to repel it. If we desire to secure peace, one of the most powerful instruments of our rising prosperity, it must be known that we are at all times ready for war.
Appeasement doesn’t stop war. It just temporarily delays it. Just look at European reactions to Hitler for confirmation.
If Iran wants war, then it is better that we fight them before they strengthen themselves. Macron should be concentrating on saving France from the invasion force they’ve been under attack by.
These people just don’t get it, and it’s putting the world as we know it at risk.
Reality:
1. There are people out there who hate you, and your way of life, and what you stand for. They don’t have to be rational about it. It doesn’t matter. They hate you, and want you dead.
2. These people are looking for ways to kill you, and conquer you. They aren’t thinking about your unique worth as a living being. They don’t care about your family. They don’t care about you. You are an obstacle to them, no more sacred than a block of concrete.
3. If you think you can reason with predators such as this, and want to try to do this, you had better be in a position of superior strength before you try. It is the only thing that they will respond to. They will capitulate only to superior firepower.
Horse hockey. Staying in it, and allowing them to get nucs, can lead to war.
Liberals also said that getting tough on NK would lead to war.
They were quoting him from an interview he gave to Der Spiegel.
At the same time he added, “I don’t think that Donald Trump wants war.”

He’s about 15% of the communicator that Trump is. Did Macron really believe this statement would influence our president to do his bidding!!??
With France?
That should be over in about five minutes.
There could be war if Trump is impeached.
The U.S. is not part of the nuclear deal, only Obama was. It was never ratified by the Senate as required by the Constitution. When Obama left office, it died.
Time to bomb the French fleet.
Indeed!
Why would the French care?
We Fight all their Wars
Even if there was War, who wins that?
They would be utterly defeated and regime change would take place, once and for all
Lunch?
They won’t have time to eat their Brie and a baguette...
No let me see.
War before Iran gets nukes, or war after Iran gets nukes?
My that is a tough one for some people.
We should have bombed Iran to dust back during the Iranian hostage crisis and we wouldn’t be having this problem. Stupid peanut farming president.
Amazing what money will make people say.
This is about trade between the EU and Iran. A deal with the devil.
