Obama has announced that an agreement has been reached with Iran today, stating that somehow Iran will be blocked from being able to build a nuclear bomb, even though the deal agreed upon fully capitulates to Iran’s demands and allows them to operate within previously secretive, fortified bunkers that re impervious to air strikes.
Obama previously stated that the deal was urgent because Iran was possibly only a couple of m
onths away from building a nuke, but now they have somehow been derailed for years with this deal that greatly favors them.
Netanyahu has stated that the deal threatens the survival of Israel because it paves the way for a bomb.
If World War 3 hasn’t started already, Obama has paved the way for that too.
The State Department has released a “fact sheet” highlighting the various points of the deal. Sanctions against will be lifted immediately, and probably forever. Iran gets to keep a huge number of its nuclear centrifuges spinning, including a thousand of them at the previously hidden and illegal fortified bunker of Fordo, which is supposed to become a “peaceful” nuclear, physics, technology, and research center. There are sunset provisions on everything Iran has tentatively agreed to, although in his Rose Garden press conferenceannouncing the deal, Obama claimed they would somehow be “permanently” blocked from various forms of weapons development.
Despite the perpetual complaints from U.N. inspectors that Iran has cheated them, Obama assured us that “if Iran cheats, the world will know.” Since Iran most predictably balks when serious inspection demands are made, this agreement “framework” could yet collapse, a possibility the President briefly mentioned in his remarks. In fact, he made a point of saying “the work is not yet done” on the deal, so we’re back to the announcement-of-a-declaration-of-a-framework-to-have-more-meetings stuff characteristic of these negotiations.
Most of the President’s remarks consisted of declarations about how “historic” the deal was, straw-man false choices about how the only alternative to his deal is an immediate regional war, excuses about how his supposedly awesome bargain with Iran was the best anyone could have managed under impossible circumstances, and loads of rhetoric about how dedicated to Middle Eastern stability he is. There were loads of promises about how inspections would be so rigorous that Iran could not possibly break the deal, even though they have successfully bamboozled, or outright defied, every previous attempt to monitor their nuclear program. The Iranians knew all along that what Obama most desired was an opportunity to give speeches like this. The messy details can be dealt with later.
The President made rhetorical gestures toward the security of American allies such as Israel and Saudi Arabia under the terms of this agreement. The former nation is now headed by the most vindicated man in the world – Benjamin Netanyau predicted the outcome of Obama’s wheeling and dealing with Iran almost to the word. The latter will now scramble to purchase nuclear weapons of its own, as will everyone else who doesn’t want to find out when Iran’s nuclear umbrella will really snap open, or be caught unarmed beneath it.
One curious detail that stood out from the President’s remarks was his assertion that, without this deal, Iran might have been only 2 to 3 months away from having a nuclear weapon. That is the kind of timetable Obama and his spokespeople have been deriding for years as uninformed scaremongering, but now it turns out that was a reasonable estimate after all?
You like your reactor, you can keep your reactor
My caveat to the treaty would be…” if you set off one, even if a tiny, nuclear explosion, we will wipe Iran off the face of the earth. You will cease to exist. Iran will be a wasteland.”
Chad Hoppes are you referring to the intentional misinterpretation of what was actually said by iranian leaders regarding zionism..they have spoke out against the zionist and their usury,not against the jewish people but the zionist.there s a huge difference between judeaism and Zionism i suggest you learn to tell what those differences are.
I would put this deal right up there with that monumental deal that Barry made with China – the deal where we wreck our coal industry, while China does what they please for the next 15 years.
Patrick Strickland,iran has been allowing inspections of their nuclear site,what they have NOT allowed is snooping into their OTHER weapons programs, as should be expected,we wouldnt allow foreigners to inspect OUR NEXT military invention would we?..iran has signed onto the nnpt also…irans enrichment process is going to be done by russia NOT iran,for the simple minded that means they do not have access to creating weapins grade material.the reason iran has placed this facikity underground is so that israel can’t bomb ut and create a nuclear melt down like they tried to do iraq,iraqs plant turned out to be just a power plant do you people forget this fact already????and i will leave you morons with this…israel has had secret hydrogen bombs for decades and DOES have a not so secret weapons program and they have refused to sign the nnpt and have NEVER BEEN INSPECTED..and i ask this of all srael supporters …name ONE EXAMPLE of hiw Israel has been an ally to the American people..NAME ONE.
Proclaims it daily? ?? Says who? The nato news networks?..hahaha..ewe sheep
Video ?? But I guess I must be wrong. You follow him around daily and live with the Iran supreme leader so you can vouch for him that he does not and has not done this daily. Crazy sheep you are.
Speak for your self sheep…Israel is a terrorist state that has attacked americans quite a few times..but you go ahead and keep throughing your blinded non imformed support behind the biggest threat to peace.
Silver-tongued anti-Christ….
