Democratic presidential hopeful Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, D-Hawaii, said Thursday that she would re-enter the Iran nuclear deal and end sanctions in response to Iran's involvement in drone attack against Saudi Arabia oil facilities if she was president.
"What I would do is, I would re-enter the Iran nuclear deal to prevent Iran from continuing to move forward in building a nuclear weapon that puts us and the world further at risk," Gabbard said on "The Story with Martha MacCallum." "
And number two... end those crippling sanctions. Every day that we don't do this, every day we continue down this failed strategy Iran gets closer and closer to a nuclear weapon.
Gabbard called the attack a "retaliation" against "extreme sanctions."
"This this provocation, as you put it, did not just come from out of nowhere, "Gabbard said, responding to MacCallum. "It is a retaliation and it's a retaliation against the extreme sanctions that are on Iran that's basically making it impossible for them to sell their oil around the world."

Tulsi is an example of why women, natural appeasers, should NEVER be President.
Yeah, Let’s reward Iran for bombing Saudi oil fields!!
That’s a good plan!!
IDIOT
What a traitorous, leftist wench.
ALL DIMS/LIBS are mentally unstable lunatics when they are exposed. She is an absolute nitwit. Case closed.
Trump has always had a variety of opinions on his staff
Trump doesnt need nor want yes men.
A sane position is not opposite to an insane position. It is something in the middle.
“...”This this provocation, as you put it, did not just come from out of nowhere, “Gabbard said, responding to MacCallum. “It is a retaliation and it’s a retaliation against the extreme sanctions that are on Iran that’s basically making it impossible for them to sell their oil around the world.”
Showing off her mil-spec body isn’t gong to make up for her foul communist anti-American mind.
I listened to her, but couldn’t get where her approach would do anything beyond removing the sanctions. She’s confused.
I had a little respect for her, but she just tossed that out the window.
The only sense in any of Gabbard’s statements here is that she confirms that Trump’s sanctions are working. ;-)
Otherwise, she just sounds like an Iranian mouthpiece, an idiot, or both.
Thanks BenLurkin. Who does number 2 (as in point 2 percent) work for?
Thank God Trump ran on and has implemented just the opposite approach.
True. Some here are being hypocrites for not endorsing what she said.
In what way to do you disagree with the lovely Ms. Gabbard?
I just had a Freeper tell me Iran should be allowed to develop nuclear weapons.
I guess the Paultards think we have to wait until Iran develops and uses nuclear weapons before acting.
I wonder if they feel the same way about other crazed / apocalyptic America-hating regimes developing nuke arsenals? Or do they just have a particular soft spot for the Islamic Republic of Iran for whatever reason?
The old nuclear deterrence strategy (Mutually Assured Destruction MAD) that worked so well during The Cold War wont work with regimes ruled by psychotics and mad mullahs. Many seem to have a hard time grasping that reality.
Why wouldn't they?
MAD is only necessary in a conflict of superpowers. Having a long war with another superpower is something to be avoided. Pissant tyrants that would have no chance against us in a war need have their nuclear weapon facilities blown to pieces if they become a national security threat.

Absolutely. Unfortunately the Norks were allowed to progress to that point. Hopefully we wont make the same mistake with Iran.
