One can read between the lines and realize the facade some put on about how much of a threat Iran really is, amounts to nothing much at all. Or American jews, don't want Israel to exist.
That is such an uninformed and moronic comment. REAL Americans want a better deal. To have kept the sanctions in place, and to have made them harsher, until we got one. That it was this plan or war is the stuff of liberal dimwits.
He is correct. Most of the world wants this deal, including the five major powers sitting on our side of the negotiating table. The only ones who don't want it are the Isrealis (who never want peace of any sort. They had to be dragged kicking and screaming to the Camp David table too), and their lobbyists, and the poliiticians they buy.
Who made you spokesman for the world? Who made Obama spokesman for 99% of the world, for that matter? Why not ask the people in the Persian gulf states how much they like this deal which is going to enrich Iran and end missile and arms sanctions (against the expressed wishes of his military advisors)? We know Bashar Assad of Syria likes that his sponsors in Iran are now without sanctions but I doubt the people of Syria are all that happy.
What Obama should have said -- and thus toy with honesty for the first time in his career as president -- was that 99% of all non-thinking but all emoting leftists are in support of this all give and no take 'deal' that's totally in Iran's favor but allows feeeeeeeeelings oriented leftists the opportunity to chant, "Obama made a nuclear deal! Obama made a nuclear deal!" and do so over the sorrowful ghost voice of a deeply shocked Neville Chamberlain who's trying to tell -- as the voice of experience so to speak -- jubilant leftists that, "You'll be soooooorrrrrrrryyyyyyyy!" But the leftists, as per usual . . . are . . . not . . . listening to the 'voice' of history. Sigh!
Just as the British did after Munich and 'Peace in or time'....a triumph of wishful thinking over reality - - - Updated - - -
Why so many folk loudly insist on appeasement and cowardice whenever the USA is required to behave like the grownup in the room baffles me.
LOLZ - President Neville Chamberlain Obama can't even get 99% of his party to agree with his full-on capitulation to his Supreme Leader in Tehran. Another step towards "a more hopeful world"...
I think everybody WANTS it to work. Thinking people realize that it's not going to, and will almost certainly lead to a nuclear conflict when Iran is allowed to get their nuke.
After all, no thread about ANY foreign policy issue is complete without some conservative envoking Munich!
If Obama were not such a pusillanimous incompetent dunderhead, then there would be no "envoking", much less "invoking" ...... "Envoke" that !!!
Before Congress Obama's own military joint chief of staff (Martin Dempsy) came out against giving away precisely what Obama gave away. “Under no circumstances should we relieve pressure on Iran relative to ballistic missile capabilities and arms trafficking,” he told the Senate Armed Services Committee. Carter Ashton, Defense Secretary agreed.http://cnsnews.com/news/article/pat...stances-should-we-relieve-pressure-iran-icbms I guess they are in that 1% against the deal.
Which part do you disagree with? Iran has said what they want to do to Israel. It's pretty unambiguous. Is it so absurd to presume that Iran will 'almost certainly' act upon it's stated goals, when given the opportunity? This deal gives them a nuke. It gives them an ICBM on which to mount it. It gives them the funds to make it all happen. Hell, they don't even have to develop it, they can just BUY one now. If Tehran had intentions to become a prosperous and peaceful member of the world community, why would they insist upon a 24 day delay for inspections? A state with peaceful intentions should have no problem with any-time inspections, wouldn't you think? Why would they continue to hold our citizens in their jails, if they were turning over a new leaf? Why would they continue to fund proxy wars with our enemies? etc? They can't just brush off the skepticism without addressing the reasonable questions of the skeptics, else it looks like just what the skeptics say it is.
And when Obama actually does his Neville Chamberlain routine and appeases monsters who have American blood on their hands, his followers, co-travelers and apologists will resort to making (*)(*)(*)(*) up like you just did. "Peace in our time" meets "a more hopeful world". I wonder how many people will get killed this time around?
Yeah. Cause "wait and see" trumps common sense all the time. How'd WWII work out for the over 50M killed ? Great "wait and see" there, eh ? Meanwhile, let us look at the last nuke deal done in the 90's How'd that "wait and see" work out ?
Obama won't care. He will blame whoever is in office and lecture them as to how HE would have avoided the situation, never admitting that he caused it. After all, he is perfect. Just ask him.
I am willing to bet most republicans in Congress will agree too..... sadly that GOP letter to IRAQ did not help us get the best deal possible.... .
And the people who study un-edited history and listen to the leaders of Iran, live in the neighbor hood and have to deal with Iran on a regular basis. You know, the middle east.
