John Kerry warns Congress: back Iran nuclear deal or face dire consequences

The United States risks a collapse in its future negotiating credibility if it walks away from the Iranian nuclear deal, according to US secretary of state John Kerry, who argues Congress now has little choice but to back the plan.

In his starkest warning yet to critics on Capitol Hill, Kerry also predicted the international coalition behind economic sanctions would quickly collapse and leave Iran even closer to developing an atomic bomb if the US sought to renegotiate terms.

One hundred senators and 535 members of the House of Representatives will vote in September on whether to oppose the deal struck by the coalition in Vienna, which proposes lifting sanctions in exchange for increased inspections and various restrictions on Iran’s nuclear activities.

But with sceptical Republicans struggling to persuade enough Democrats to join them in overriding a presidential veto, Kerry painted a bleak picture of the alternative options during four hours of heated testimony before the House foreign affairs committee on Tuesday.

Just imagine Condolezza Rice saying something similar to the Congress when Kerry was in the Senate! And what his reaction would be.

Congress should demand a new deadline...That works for about 5 times or more.

"the international coalition behind economic sanctions would quickly collapse and leave Iran even closer to developing an atomic bomb if the US sought to renegotiate terms."

Uhm..............Which is why negotiating a deal with Iran was never a good idea. It was actually a stupid treasonous idea, certain to harm most everyone on this planet at some time in the next 25 years.

So not passing a bad deal would be bad because it might prevent other bad deals in the future? Kerry is a dangerous lunatic.

If you don't they'll get the Bomb, but if you Do, they'll get the bomb.

But if you don't you'll be sorry, and if you do we'll BLAME the GOP for
at least a Century!

When Iran uses that damn bomb they'll blame the GOP saying,
"They should've known better, they could've prevented a million deaths".

I am so sick of Kerry’s scare tactics it makes me sick. If Kerry. or Obozo, had any stones at all, Iran would never have nuclear weapons. With this stupid deal, we are guaranteeing that they will in 15 years or less. Both of them should be tried for treason.

If someone would stab Kerry, they’d have to call a HAZMAT team in to clean up all the fecal material running out from every wound. No blood, just stinkin’ stuff.

John Kerry hates America to the core. He has been our enemy since Vietnam. I think he wants to hurt the US even more than Israel. A future Nuremberg type tribunal would be an appropriate forum for Obama, Kerry and their functionaries to appear for justice.
