We knew the Iran deal was a stupid move from the very beginning. The appeasers assured us this was the best way to get our enemies to be nicer. Fools! Take a gander: “Iran fires 2 missiles marked with ‘Israel must be wiped out’
The duplicitous nature of Iranian messaging exposes the fact that this nation cannot be trusted to keep it’s word. The firing of missiles despite UN resolutions against them shows they are not to be trusted.
“The reason we have designed these missiles with such a range — 2,000 kilometres — is to be able to hit our remote enemies, the Zionist regime,” said General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, who heads the Revolutionary Guards’ aerospace wing, referring to Israel.
“But there is no need to fire missiles to destroy the Zionist regime as it will gradually collapse. Our main enemy is the US,” he said.
Climbing in bed with a sworn enemy? Dumb! Dumb! Dumb!
From the linked article:
“The tests, however, don’t violate the accord. The landmark deal, which led to Iran dramatically scaling back its nuclear program, does not include provisions against missile launches.”
So it would appear the deal has not been “broken.”
Tina: “The appeasers assured us this was the best way to get our enemies to be nicer.”
Who are you talking about? Name one supporter of the deal who said that the purpose was to get Iran to be “nicer,” or stop resorting to silly strawman arguments.
“Climbing in bed with a sworn enemy?”
We didn’t “climb into bed” with Iran. We negotiated with them. Negotiating with enemies is what presidents have always done. Reagan did it. Nixon did it. It’s what adults do. Your anti-negotiation stance is not an adult policy. It’s not even a real policy, it’s a talking point designed for people who don’t think.
I suppose since you’re so very “adult” you may have forgotten…the Iranians are the #1 supporters of terrorism; we (supposedly) don’t “negotiate with terrorists.
So Yes, we did “get in bed” with this terrorist nation which openly states, “Our main enemy is the US.”
This is a nation that has been actively engaging in the support of violent sadistic murderous acts. This is a nation that shouts, “Death to America.” This is a nation that is responsible for the deaths of many Americans since 1979. This is not your average “enemy.”
Also, when “adults” negotiated with countries like the USSR and China they got something out of it. Obama gave Iran what they wanted and got nothing in return but vague (empty) promises.
During negotiations Obama’s explanation that “all options” were “on the table,” was openly mocked by the Iranian military:
Counter-point: Saudi Arabia.
Also, you’re wrong that Obama got nothing out of the deal but “promises,” but simply Googling the Iran deal would tell you that. I’ll come back to this issue when you are more informed.
