Republican presidential candidates Donald Trump unleashed on Tuesday another line of attack against the Iran nuclear deal, suggesting that the Iran deal would require the United States to fight Israel on Irans behalf if the Jewish State strikes Irans nuclear facilities.
In a phone interview with CNN Tuesday evening, Trump claimed that theres something in the Iran deal that people dont understand saying if someone attacks Iran, we have to come to their defense.
Does that include Israel? Trump asked. And most people say yes, they dont have an exclusion for Israel. So if Israel attacks Iran, according to that deal, I believe, the way it reads, unless they have a codicil or they have something to it, that we have to fight with Iran against Israel.

Ping.
Obama IS a Muslim and a TRAITOR!! Impeach him or be prepared for even bigger trouble in days to come.
So what the hell is Israel WAITING for already! Oh maybe the assurance that the US will go along with the deal 1st! If no action soon, well so long Israel because you can’t defeat the US Military!!
Israel doesn’t have to defeat the US or Russian military, they have help that we do not have.
WEll at least you can now get breakfast at Mickey Dee’s all day long. :-)
Trump is just discovering this?
Where did Trump say he was just “discovering this”, and what the heck does that have to do with price of nukes in Iran??
WHAT OTHER CANDIDATE IS TALKING ABOUT THIS PART OF IRAN DEAL THAT STATES WE PROTECT IRAN AGAINST AN ISRAELI STRIKE???
Then CWII here, ‘cuse we are not going to put up with THAT shit.
(and never forget, they have subs and 150ish nuclear weapons)
Correct.
You’ll know the gig is up when my American security clearance is revoked. I’ve kind of expected it to happen to all Israelis since Obama took office.
Cruz has talked about it. I believe others have.
Trump is just now discovering this?
I’m sadly agreeing. I still see Cruz as the best, but I cannot understand how he could vote that way.
I expect Obama to begin what I call his “scortched earth” policy about 6 months before he leaves office. The evil he will do then is hard to fathom, but popping security clearances is quite likely.
You didn’t answer my question. Where did Trump say he’s just discovering this?
Please show me where Sen Cruz has specifically warned *that this Iran deal requires the US to protect Iran from an Israeli strike*. I’ve searched, but may have missed it. TIA.
I got my 3rd diploma but not at kal state. Filthy place, socially speaking.
Well, I’ve trained with easily over 50% of USA and NATO pilots. Maybe they will aim to miss.
Always has been loose on Earth.

You are a keeper!
Insanity from the perspective of American interests. However, right in line with the thinking of the President.
F***. When does the shooting start?
“Where Trump is getting this is from Frank Gaffney who is a former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Nuclear Forces and Arms Control Policy in the Reagan Administration.”
I have heard Frank Gaffney many times and he’s a voice I respect when it comes to topics like this. I’m just trying to understand the whole story. I try not to go off half-cocked. That’s for the libs to do :)
It is a short step between training and material support but if we haven’t taken that step then we shouldn’t be going off as if we did. That kind of emotional response to half of a story is the domain of the libs. We should be better than that.
If it IS true and this agreement does put us in position where we’d provide military support for Iran against Israel, I’ll be protesting right alongside you. I just didn’t see that in the text / article that was posted.
