Not Even Barack Obama's Deal Would Have Let Iran Off the Hook if They Violated the Terms of a Nuclear Agreement.

Trump's Deal?

The so-called 'snapback' mechanism, which allows for the automatic reimposition of sanctions if Iran fails to comply, would be removed.

They must have been enjoying TACOs in Tehran tonight!

Obama's deal was bad. Iran should have been able to build a nuke. If they had one, they wouldn't be at war right now.

If John McCain was elected in 2008 we wouldn't have had to worry about Iran's nuclear program then or now.

@beckyromero We don't have to worry about Iran's nuclear program. Iran having nukes would be a good thing.

@BohoBabe And yet from what has been discovered so far, the deal Trump is now proposing to restore "peace" is exactly the same as the Obama deal.. No word yet on whether Iran will accept. But in their shoes I wouldnt. At this rate Americans will be walking to July 4th celebrations.😷

John Kerry was SecState. He holds some of the blame.

The main problem with the deal was, just like with the ACA, Obama was content to claim something was accomplished when in reality he was just kicking the can down the road.

Just like Bush 41 in 1991 with Iraq. (Or Eisenhower in 1953 with Korea.)

@beckyromero I agree in principle. All US politics is "kicking it down the road" And that is what got them into trouble with the economy, Iran, and the Republic and Democrat party structures. No one in America plans beyond the next balance sheet or election. And therefore the big ticket items never get dealt with..
Of course, part 2 of the problem is that you can only get an agreement on things the other side wants to agree on. The Iran problem is simple. A dozen or so well placed nukes sends the nation back to the stone age. Follow that up with a couple of divisions in a line search from one end of the country to the other. But of course, thats monsterous and no one will do it..So the problem gets kicked down the road.😷
ITFDB starts Thursday, who are you picking this year?

@independentone

They'll probably repeat, beating NYY in the WS.
John McCain? Only nominated because republicans were sure to lose to BO. @beckyromero
If there is an agreement it won’t prevent Trump or Vance from bombing the hell out of them again. Vance will follow in Trump’s unpredictable style.

Did @jackjjackson just come out in favor of socialized health insurance? 😮

Well, the guy is barely sentient.
Been for why I described for years. Putting insurance company profits back into the health care systems is the only way to make them work. @beckyromero
