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.

Traitors shouldn’t talk about “credibility”.

Right...Kerry will force them to watch him dance in his pink Tu Tu.

I can't think of too many things worse than death, but that ranks right up there.

Maybe our credibility will be restored if we walk away. Right now, they all think we're suckers.

< 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.

What the “alleged” half of the U.S. hasn’t figured ou yet is that Obama’s playing for the other team. Hell he’ll hand them the bomb then move oit of the U.S. before they rain them down on us. And be laughing all the way to the bank along with his buddy, Soros, who’s looking more and more like Emporer Palpatine every day.
