You said: I am saying the US State Department has never designated the Soviet Union as a state that sponsors terrorism.
My comment: Big friggin deal. Whatever report the State Department did or didn’t issue, The Soviets were terror sponsors — that’s a fact, Jack — but Reagan still negotiated with them. Was Reagan a “Neville Chamberlain”?
No.
This a thread about Iran. Why you want to redirect to a discussion about Russia is curious.
Evidently you don’t understand or care why Iran is on the list of states that sponsor terrorism.
All your redirection does not alter the fact Obama is cutting his deal with a country his own State Department designates as a country that supports terrorism.
