Coons: We Should Push Iran for Deal that Addresses Terror Support Unlike Obama Deal
Breitbart ^ | 05/02/2025 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 05/02/2025 5:10:57 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Thursday’s broadcast of Bloomberg’s “Balance of Power,” Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) reacted to President Donald Trump’s announcement of secondary sanctions on purchasers of Iranian oil by stating that he generally supports pressuring the regime and “there is bipartisan support for increasing pressure to get Iran to the table, to try and get back into a more comprehensive deal, one that doesn’t have sunsets, one that includes some of their secondary support for terrorist proxies in the region, particularly, including the Houthis and their ballistic missile program.”

Co-host Kailey Leinz asked, “Well, and as we consider the issues your committee is looking at, the same issues that you were just alluding to, Marco Rubio is dealing with, we got some news from President Trump separate to this today about secondary sanctions on buyers of Iranian oil, trying to amp up pressure on the regime as they look for some kind of nuclear deal. Are you broadly supportive of measures like that? Is actually that what it takes to get Iran to the table?”

By my observation, Coons is a two, or three, or four-faced snake. Believe him at your own risk!

I am in favor of at least exploring any kind of deal that doesn't involve sending the Iranians hundreds of millions of dollars in pallets of cash, followed up by billions of electronic transfers in money as their Golden Calf Obama did in January of 2016.

After Coons’ years of whoring for Biden nobody with a remaining brain cell takes this clown seriously.

I did suspect that if Iran agreed to shut off all nuclear enrichment, if they allowed full inspection, if they even shut down their nuclear reactor, it would not be enough.

The warmongers in Congress want to dictate the foreign policy of a sovereign nation. Iran’s foreign policy gets defined as terrorism if it is not aligned with US preferences.

Its a bad idea to believe anything these fanatical fundamentalist Shiite Mullahs have to say about their nuclear weapons program. Distance Tehran to Jerusalem is 1200 miles. Why would they even care about Israel? Why do they want to destroy Israel via their proxies? To show that Shiite Islam is superior to Sunni Islam. And in their Mullahs pea brains, to eventually take over Mecca. For Mecca to be under Shiite domination - rule.
