I bet tRump WISHES he could have made as good a deal with Iran as Obama made!!
The Obama admin secured an agreement, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA, that was signed in 2015 by the United States and Iran as well as China, Russia, France, Germany and the United Kingdom.
Under the deal, Iran agreed not to pursue nuclear weapons and to allow continuous monitoring of its compliance in exchange for relief from economic sanctions.
The monitoring plan under Obama was a rigorous technical inspection regime of Iran's facilities. Key parts of the inspection instrumentation were implemented and verified by Obama's Energy Secretary, an MIT nuclear physicist named Dr Ernest Moniz. Moniz's system could identify traces (secondary radioactivity) left by radioactive materials even after they had been moved.
It was Obama's inspection deal that halted Iran's uranium enrichment program in exchange for relaxed sanctions.
Moniz's technical inspection regime was a major part of what tRump blew up. Without the Obama deal, Iran immediately restarted their UF6 centrifuge uranium enrichment program.
It was the failure of tRump to "make a better deal" that forced tRump to drop bunker buster bombs on Iran's uranium enrichment program.
It was the failure of that bombing campaign that caused "no new wars" tRump to begin the current war on Iran.

@sunsporter1649 The original treaty - the one tRump blew up in 2018 - was set to last ten years with the option to negotiate extensions and additions.
And it was FAR FAR better deal than the mess tRump has single-handedly landed us in.

@sunsporter1649 I have facts, you have cartoons🤣😂
Above, you are admitting that tRump didn't get the funding sorted out in advance. Nor did tRump prepare a plan to keep the Strait of Hormuz open. Nor did tRump have a plan to protect the oil transfer infrastructure of our Gulf allies (all those tank farms & pipelines are very soft targets and Iran has hit 40+ already).
In short, tRump has made a ROYAL mess. tRump even ADMITS his unreadiness!!
2026-03-16: “Look what happened, in the last two weeks. They weren't supposed to go after all these other countries in the Middle East. Those missiles were set to go after them. So they hit Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait. Nobody expected that. We were shocked!”
So my plan is relieve this inadequate "commander" of his command and put in place someone with proven ability to deal with Middle East opponents.

@sunsporter1649 Did that person start a $2 billion/day war of choice in the middle east with only "concepts of a plan"??? Didn't think so.

Bombs fly, homes, businesses, lives end. Death and corpses and funerals follow. Uncountable suffering from innocent people and nobody cares.. They say they do, they cry and pray and do all kinds of stupid sh_t but really, as long as the bombs are not falling on them, nobody cares.
We all go and complain that the price of gas went up though, and food, and housing and all those things mentioned here.
But the lives lost? meh...
Someones house was destroyed? Someones entire family? sad, but that is war.
Humanity at it's finest.
Someone needs to gather an army and... well.. we all know who is responsible for all of this.

@sunsporter1649 You know when I look at this comic, I understand it is supposed to be funny, but it is coming from ComicallyIncorrect, so whatever it is trying to say, it must be the opposite, and since it is already an opposite composition, it really makes no sense and is also not funny, so what is it?
