Madeleine Albright: Iran deal is a win-win
CNN ^ | 11:50 AM ET, Mon August 31, 2015 | Madeleine K. Albright

Posted on 08/31/2015 2:06:38 PM PDT by Dave346

The United States and Iran have been locked in an adversarial relationship since the 1979 hostage crisis. Having worked for President Jimmy Carter, I viewed the country through the prism of that experience when I served in the Clinton administration. Nevertheless, as secretary of state I felt it important to explore the possibility of developing a less chilly relationship with Iran.

During my time in office, we offered to engage in dialogue, but the Iranians were not ready. In the end, although we improved the relationship on the margins, we failed to make much of a dent in the thick wall of mistrust separating our two countries.

But it is dangerous not to pursue dialogue, and experience convinces me that the nuclear agreement between world powers and Iran is a wise diplomatic initiative.

Rejection of this accord would leave the United States isolated and Iranian hardliners empowered.

Rejection of this agreement would be a strategic setback for the United States, one that our rivals and adversaries would not ignore.

This accord is a bold stroke of diplomacy, and an opportunity we must not waste.

This woman is beyond stupid. She negotiated the same kind of deal with NK...we all know how well that worked out. Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter and Madelaine Albright vs. obama and Horse Face Kerry in a stupid contest. Who would win??

So, when did John Semmens start writing essays for Albright?

Go stick your beak in some rancid wine you hideous hag.

The United States and Iran have been locked in an adversarial relationship since the 1979 hostage crisis.

...when Carter failed to support American ally, the Shah of Iran.

Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi was the king of Iran from 16 September 1941 until his overthrow by the Islamic Revolution on 11 February 1979

The election of Mr. Carter as president of the United States in 1976, with his vocal emphasis on the importance of human rights in international affairs, was a turning point in US-Iran relations. The Shah of Iran was accused of torturing over 3000 prisoners. Under the banner of promoting human rights, Carter made excessive demands of the Shah, threatening to withhold military and social aid. Carter pressured the Shah to release "political prisoners", whose ranks included radical fundamentalists, communists and terrorists. Many of these individuals are now among the opponents we face in our "war on terrorism".

Jimmy Carter, more than any other single person is responsible for the growth of radical islam.

Mad Maddie Not-So-Bright

Last seen in 2000 embarrassing the United States by chasing Yasser Arafat down and begging him to return after he stormed out of her Paris ‘Peace Talks’.

And now another Democrat, Obama, with Hillary assisting, supported the overthrow of American ally Egypt & a moderate Libya by muslim terrorist & extremist.

Democrat Obama abandoned a reborn Iraq.
(Remember those purple fingers?)

..all of which lead to the rise of ISIS.

And Obama has now guaranteed Iran a nuclear weapon.

That is Democrat foreign policy!

For Iran and terrorists.

For America and civilization, it's lose-lose.

Well you old bag, what did your vaunted North Korean 'deal' do to help the oppressed, imprisoned and tortured women of Kim Jong Il's tyrannical little state?

Answer = NOTHING. For that matter, what has your pal Hillary Clinton done for women except to empower and enable her sexual predator husband to molest and oppress the women who were unfortunate enough to work in his presence? Not to mention Hillary being a fervent supporter of Planned Infanticide which murders unborn babies, which include unborn females?!?

Sounds to me like you two bitches better be packing lots of sunscreen for where you're going.

Now STFU you jig dancing dwarf.
