    So Iran is going to break through the limits it was supposed to be keeping under the Iran nuclear deal. But hey - there is no more nuclear deal, so there are no more limits. Thanks Donny!

    Trump's own administration said that Iran was sticking to the terms of the deal. This increase in activity is a direct (and predictable) consequence of Trump pulling out of the deal. And the only reason he pulled out was because it was Obama that signed the deal in the first place. No policy reason beyond undoing anything that was associated with Obama - regardless of whether it is good to do so.

    Way to go Donny. You have made the world a less-safe place.

    It's inevitable that we'll regret not having bombed them years ago. Obama should have let Israel destroy Iran's reactors. It's only a matter of when and where a terrorist will detonate a dirty bomb produced in Iran.

    No - but Trump has made that more likely.

    What he should have done was stay in the nuclear deal.

    Then it is extremely unlikely that Iran would have ramped up production of uranium, and extremely unlikely that they would be attacking ships in the Straight of Hormuz.

    It would have been a really good idea if someone had reached an agreement with Iran that would have made it much more difficult for them to make a dirty bomb. Oh wait. Obama negotiated that deal. And Iran was sticking to it. But Trump pulled out, making it easier for Iran to make that dirty bomb. Thanks, Donny, for making the world a less-safe place.

    Unpossible.

    Iran promised that they had dismantled and destroyed their uranium enrichment facilities. No way Iran would ever lie to their BFF Obama.

    This was what the left wanted all along. To them, this is a win. Iran becomes another threat to be used against Israel...

    The left won't even complain about it.
    They can't. They just can't complain about the top state sponsor of terrorism in the world creating nuclear weapons. They just can't even do it at all.

    No ... Obama's agreement did nothing. The Iranian's, sticking with the number of centrifuges in Obama's deal have amassed enough plutonium to make 100's of dirty bombs already. 300kg is a lot of material.

    Thanks donny yourself. The deal was a joke and gave like 30 days notice of inspections? They already could do whatever they wanted under it.
    THANKS BARRY!

    Breaking the Iran deal was another blunder by Trump. There is no way Israel will be able to hit those targets without causing a real increase in tensions as well isolating the USA.

    It is sad to see the way the reactionary talk radio right wing went right to cheering for the same bellicose Sabre rattling that failed so miserably during the Bush years.

    But they did.

    The only people saying that Iran is the top sponsor of terrorism in the world are right wing ex disc jockeys from which Trumpsters get their “news”.

    No Iranian attacked the US on 9/11, and no Iranian has attacked us since.

    But the US led the world in negotiating an end to Iran’s nuclear program. It had broad international support.

    Until Trump unilaterally threw it in the trash can.

    Now, Iran is doing what any sensible nation, surrounded by nuclear tipped rivals and threatened on an ongoing basis by the world’s most powerful country.

    Indeed, they’re doing what the North Koreas did in response to Bush’s bellicose threats.

    They’re arming up.

    The threat is the cost, and inconvenience of the clean up professor.

    No the threat isn't the same. Boston residents weren't forced to evacuate so that hazmat crews could spend a couple months decontaminating after the marathon bombing. Detonating a dirty bomb made with Iran's enriched material in a US city might not produce a lot of casualties, but it would cripple the city.

    Trump pulled out of the arrangement Obama made with his masters in Tehran because it was such a BS "deal" he couldn't rally enough support in Congress to get it ratified as a treaty.

    I don't know what you and the rest of Obama's sycophants are worried about anyway. Your pals in the "Death to America!" crowd told you they weren't interested in building nuclear weapons so 1) there never was a need for a deal in the first place and 2) we can reimpose the sanctions on the regime so it will have less money to spend on oppressing the Iranian people at home and sowing violence abroad.

    LOL this is the exact reason we got out of the deal...How is possible that Iran can immediately pick right up on weapons grade uranium considering they dismantled all those under the deal. Why is it that Iran is now breaking a deal that they agreed to keep in place with other countries so they would continue buying their oil???

    Obama negotiated a bad deal. It is even questionable as to whether he entered the deal illegally, as any "treaty' or agreement negotiated with foreign Governments are first suppose to be ratified by Congress.

    Even though the US backed out of the agreement, there are still 10 other countries that are signatory to the agreement. The fact that Iran will not honor their part of the agreement with these other nations implies that they only intended to honor the agreement as long as it benefited them.

    Many countries enter into agreements with other countries that may not be completely beneficial to them. That is why agreements are signed. If countries were only motivated by their own interests, there would never be agreements.

    "Moveon" ain't my style. For decades nations have safeguarded, and assisted each other safeguarding radioactive material. For instance, terrorists in Georgia were caught smuggling radioactive material, and the US & Russia coordinated their investigations. Hillary had Bob Mueller fly to Moscow to deliver a sample of the material seized. https://time.com/4728293/uranium-underworld-dark-secret-dirty-bombs/ Wussies wring their hands over Iranian reprisals for bombing their reactors ... I'm not one of those.

    Or the most logical, they bluffed the deal to get income rolling in and never planned nor did dismantle their weapons grade munitions program. I guess if you trust the Iranians you can make smart ass remarks about geniuses but most of the world's intelligent services think the dumbasses are the ones that actually believed they did or would.

    Your article explains why your nightmare scenario is so *******ned dumb. Some people found uranium in A TRASH HEAP and they were able to pinpoint it back to Russian reactors. You think Iran is stupid enough to sell radioactive material when it can easily be traced back to their reactors?
