Please provide a source for your quote number 3. It seems highly unlikely since his administration helped negotiate a treaty to do exactly the opposite.

@windinhishair This is not a direct quote. It is a summary of his attitude, which seemed to me one of appeasement. In the same way, the BBC will go out of its way to excuse Muslim extremes while happily condemning Christian practices. Obama did not recognise the fact that it is encouraged in the Koran to lie if this is in the interest of the furtherance of Muslim influence. In the west, we tend to expect other nations to behave as we do. Iranian rhetoric outside of the negotiating table is revelatory. Obama ignored that rhetoric. Today, a nuclear Iran is close, to our great peril

@WalterF Oh, so now a "quote" is your interpretation of a summary of his attitude???? What a crock of shit.

A nuclear Iran is closer today only because Trump decided to get out of an agreement that was working. Our allies know it was working and are continuing to honor it. Meanwhile, Trump and his warmongers are working hard to trigger a war with Iran.

@WalterF Happier with Iran being armed that your moron Trump in charge of a popgun.

@windinhishair No, to make it easier for them to do just that, after an interval.
