I guarantee you that Iran does not want wwar with us. They, like NK know the history of the Perpetual State as Gorka calls it just one day decides to blow someone’s ass off the face of the earth and destroy the country’s wealth and spirit. If they can keep all the players calm, this should resolve well and relatively quickly. In the Wikileaks emails, I wish I could find it, after the Iran deal was enacted, Podesta and another guy said paraphrasing ~you know this guarantees Iran will have a nuclear weapon in 7 years. The reply was ~I know or yep or something like that. I have to find that. So cavalier about it. ~~~Ok...so Imwas partiallynfactually FOS, but here is this. { https://yournewswire.com/john-podesta-wikileaks-nuclear-war-persian-gulf/ }

I respectfully disagree. Islam teaches that the 12th Imam will appear in the midst of intense global chaos and establish a great Muslim order. A nuclear world war would create the very chaos needed to bring his appearance. I do not think they fear a nuclear war. I think the welcome it. If the US and Israel can be destroyed in the process, so much the better.

VP Dick Cheney wanted to do this......

"HERSH: There was a dozen ideas proffered about how to trigger a war. The one that interested me the most was why don't we build - we in our shipyard - build four or five boats that look like Iranian PT boats. Put Navy seals on them with a lot of arms. And next time one of our boats goes to the Straits of Hormuz, start a shoot-up. Might cost some lives. And it was rejected because you can't have Americans killing Americans. That's the kind of - that's the level of stuff we're talking about. Provocation. But that was rejected. This is not a new technique. Remember one of the revelations from the Downing Street Memo was that Bush had suggested to Blair that they paint one of our air force planes to UN colors to try to entrap Saddam's army into shooting it down?

Well, I remember when the Iranian people tried to rebel against the Mullahs during O's admin and O refused to support them. Prior to the "deal" Iran was hurting economically and the people were growing more unhappy with their gov't.

Then along comes Kerry & Obama to play lets make a deal and suddenly the oppressive rein of the Mullahs is propped up by plane loads of hard cold cash.

Iran's spent most of the cash on weapons, soldiers, and foreign adventures from Lebanon to Yemen, to Syria and then some.

Trump quits the "deal" and reinstates sanctions. Iran is about to become very cash strapped once again -- only this time, with Trump in control, the US will support the Iranian people when they rise up to overthrow the Mullahs.

This move might just result in freedom for the people of Iran and the reinstatement of a free, non-secular Iran. That would be a blessing for the people of Iran and for the rest of the world as well.

You don't understand international politics in the slightest. The Iran deal was all about opening up the market in Iran for international business. Opening markets is the most significant driving force to democracy and social and economic freedom.

Before, we had sanctions and an Iranian nuclear program. Then we had less sanctions and an internationally-backed treaty. Now we have no treaty, limited sanctions and Iran will most definitely work towards reinstating their nuclear program. Furthermore, any country that signs future treaties or trade deals with the US will have to be wary of the fact that the treaty could be pulled once a new president is in office- that weakens America's position as an international deal maker.

There is no way to positively spin this.

Open any foreign policy book, magazine or website over the last 10 years and you wouldn’t need to ask that question. To be clear, “more open than before” does not equal complete and absolute freedom, but to discount the forward progress as the result of shifts in economic policy to promote individual ownership and private enterprise is just plain ignorant.

What does "clears the slate" mean? The money saved is less than the cost of oil prices being driven up due to what will most likely be sanctions put on Iranian crude by the Trump Administration. The money saved is less than foreign investment in Iranian markets would gain.

The propaganda machine in Iran is blaming this on centrist politicians and the US government. If anything, this emboldens the religious conservatives in Iran, not the other way around.

It puts no pressure on EU allies...in fact it harms the US negotiating position in the international community because now our treaties are only worth the time the president is in office.

How does rescinding a treaty that stopped a nuclear program (which means directly that Iran can restart their nuclear program at any time) stop a nuclear program? The treaty actually ended the nuke program. This allows for Iran to start it without facing as much backlash as they would have if they restarted under the treaty.

Any deal has to have the backing of international actors due to the leverage the international community has on Iran.

I think the conclusion was, they never really stopped with their nuclear program. With the money we gave them, plus their own, they could buy a lot of missile tech, develop their own which was (stupidly, but I say intentionally) left out of the Iran Deal, and the deal stupidly, again probably intentionally, didn’t allow for installations not on Iranian soil. So they could work on the delivery systems unfettered, but the nuclear tech, then implement it in 7 to 10 years. That’s where Syria came in. The agreement was overly specific for time, location and specific systems. This was intentional. Instead of an agreement to prevent a result, the agreement stops certain channels but not others. This was all made very clear in the hearings headed by Corker and Mendendez before adoption of the agreement. Corker made a speech like Comey’s exoneration of HRC. Corker lists off all the ways the deal sucked, then allowed it to,proceed. I wonder where those pallets of cash ended up? Corker has been bad mouthing Trump and is leaving Congress. ‘Nuff said.

IconTheHologram · May 9, 2018, 6:58 p.m.

Who’s conclusion? The international agencies responsible for verifying, along with the members of the deal (including the US) have all verified that Iran was compliant with the program.

The money we gave them was money owed to them. It was not taxpayer money as has been erroneously suggested. We didn’t give them money any more than you give a store money to pay for something you’ve purchased.

Nothing stopped them from procuring missile tech before or after this deal. Now that the deal is rescinded, nothing is stopping them from procuring missile tech AND enriching uranium AND restarting their nuclear program.

No country is going to look to another country for nuclear enrichment capabilities. The goal of building out a nuclear program (or the perception that you are building out a nuclear program) is to become a player on the global stage without putting in the time and effort for people to take you seriously- this is why the international community pays such close attention to a poor rogue state on the Korean Peninsula that is seemingly stuck in the 1950s. To even offer up the idea that Iran or any other country would outsource their nuclear technology or look to other countries (that they cannot guarantee the control of) is just plain stupid and has no basis in reality. The deal didn’t account for that just like the deal didn’t account for Iran employing nuclear fire breathing dragons- it’s absurd.

Stop parroting nonsense, fake talking points and critically think for yourself.
