The World’s Most
Dangerous Community Organizer’s Iran deal was an agreement struck by
presidential fiat. Yesterday, it was
rescinded by presidential fiat.
President Trump’s
decision to torpedo the flawed deal keeps faith with his campaign promise and
has infuriated the usual critics. “Leading
from behind” and “strategic patience” are not part of President Trump’s
lexicon.
Ben
Shapiro noted, “Obama left the Middle East a smoking wreckage heap ─ a
situation so grim that even Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Jordan have been forced to
ally with Israel to allay fears of an Iranian regional takeover. Obama and his
staff lied repeatedly to the American people about the Iran deal ─ and they
continue to lie. When [former Secretary of State John] Kerry says that the deal
will ‘empower Iran's hardliners,’ he is repeating an outright fabrication: The
hardliners are in charge of the government and the deal strengthened them. When
[Samantha] Power speaks as though Obama alleviated the possibility of Iran's
nuclear program, she's lying, too: The deal explicitly paved the way for an
Iranian nuclear program free and clear of consequences from the international
order. When Obama speaks as though our Middle East allies were pleased by the
deal, he's lying: They all opposed it, and they're all celebrating its end.”
An Op-Ed
published in The Washington Examiner
declared, “Since the deal was struck, [Iran] has built up its military, imprisoned
Americans, tested ballistic missiles, continued to finance terrorism and
increased its interference in Syria. In Yemen, Iran violated an arms embargo
and is believed to have allowed Houthi rebels to obtain missiles, one of which
was fired into Saudi Arabia.”
“Ever since a desperate
Obama started negotiating the deal, Washington has been held hostage by fear
that Iran could withdraw, thus limiting the options of policymakers. So, a deal
that was supposed to constrain Iran instead hobbled America.”
“We’re still learning
all of the ways that Obama myopically subverted our national interests in first
seeking and then propping up his deal. Last year, a detailed report found that ‘in
its determination to secure a nuclear deal with Iran, the Obama administration derailed
an ambitious law enforcement campaign targeting drug trafficking by the
Iranian-backed terrorist group Hezbollah, even as it was funneling cocaine into
the United States.’”
“Despite all of these
concessions, the deal would only limit Iranian nuclear activities for a little
over a decade. Even if Iran were to follow every letter of the deal, it could
use the next decade to build its conventional military and develop ballistic
missiles and then ramp back up its nuclear program, giving it both nuclear
material and the means to deliver it. The bombshell Israeli intelligence find
announced last week demonstrated that Iran not only lied to the international
community about its past nuclear weapons development, but also kept all its
research, presumably, for use at a later date. The deal relies on
self-inspection of Iranian military sites such as Parchin, despite evidence of
past nuclear activity.”
“In his speech, one of
the best made about and to Iran by an American president, Trump put the world
on notice that the U.S. would no longer be hamstrung by a bad deal. 'America
will not be held hostage to nuclear blackmail.'”
An obviously distraught
worshipper of the “messiah”, CNN’s Jim Acosta, tweeted:
