Iran is totally confused on how to approach Biden - analysis
Jerusalem Post ^ | 1/27/21 | Seth j. Frantzman

Posted on 01/28/2021 5:35:53 AM PST by bert

One word we haven’t heard about Iran lately is “hard-liners.” That may be due to the fact that the Iran lobby in the US has not received its talking points and marching orders.

In the old days of the lead-up to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action or Iran deal, we were presented with a narrative of “a deal or war.” This bizarre and false story claimed that those who opposed a “deal” want war. No other country in the world requires a “deal” to stop it from deploying nuclear threats.

Snip-----

And what does Tehran want? Even Tehran doesn’t know what its end goal is with the nuclear program. What it does want is an end to sanctions. The deal is just a talking point because Iran’s assessment is that Western countries like “deals” and “agreements” and zero-sum games of “we got this” and “we made peace,” so they can say they “accomplished” something.

Iran understands that Western leaders value photo-ops and lip service more than reality on the ground.

This is an interesting article conveying the thought that the coming Biden dealings are not necessarily black and white

What is there to be confused about?
Iran will walk all over Biden and develops nukes, just like they walked all over Obozo.

“Iran... come on, man, start with “10% for the big guy” and a knowing wink.”

Bingo! How hard is that?

I don’t think bag man Hunter would be too impressed with the Islamic whores and drugs he’d find in Tehran. The mullahs need to transfer the funds directly to Biden’s offshore accounts.

Iran knows better than anyone else that a corrupt piece of sh!t like Joe Biden is only valuable to them until someone else comes along and outbids Iran for his services.

They just don’t know the intents of his backers. He’s an empty suit and Iran knows it.

The heck it is.

For bleeps sake, they wanted BiteMe installed.

And used their EU sock puppets to assist in doing it.

Note to the JP: Nice try, though.

They get along with the gender thing. In Iran, once a man is found to be a homosexual, they force sexual reassignment surgery on them and they are forced to live as a woman the rest of their life. Jose wants the gender confused men to live as women the rest of their lives. It’s only a matter of time the “state” forced surgery on them

Biden and his team of surrender monkeys have no idea how to handle dictators and despots.

I imagine they’ll resort to bribery again to the tune of $$BILLIONS$$

I will argue that the USA really didn’t matter about the Iranian nukes.

What mattered was Israel and the Gulf states that covertly destroyed the Iranian ability to make a nuke.

They continue to actually do so and Iran is apparently powerless to stop them
