Why Empower Iran
Middle East Forum ^ | August 3, 2015 | Alexander H. Joffe

Posted on 08/03/2015 5:00:02 PM PDT by Truth29

Unless the US Congress votes in opposition, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) deal with Iran with go through. What really happened and why did it happen the way it did?

What happened is gradually becoming clear. It is revealed daily just how horrendous the deal really is. On every point — enrichment, centrifuges, stocks of fissile material, inspections, sanctions on the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps members and businesses, "snapback," etc. — the Obama administration caved completely.

Concessions on ballistic missiles and arms sales were thrown in at the last minute; the administration lied about it all, while Iran touted its victories and American capitulation. All this went on amidst a background of Iranian chants of "death to Israel" and "death to America," which entered not at all into American calculations.(snip)

At the end of the day, an American administration led by social justice ideologues was fated to understand nothing about a revolutionary Islamist regime with global aspirations. The favor done Iran in the name of Islamic authenticity and regional reintegration will be a curse on the world for generations.

the administration lied about it all,

America has been lied to. Considering that Iran has sworn to destroy us (and an ally), the agreement cannot be allowed to go forward.

STOP THE SELL OUT

The breadth and scope of this sell out are extraordinary. As is the unwillingness of any Jews on the Left to point out that the Emperor has no clothes.

It also speaks volumes about where this country is that a Marxist like Obama can end up as POTUS and a turncoat like Kerry can end up as Secretary of State. Given those two things, no one should really be surprised at this outcome.

"Obama was talking with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev when neither of them realized that their conversation was being picked up by microphones. Here is what they said:

Obama: “On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved, but it’s important for him to give me space.”

Medvedev: “Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you ...”

Obama: “This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility.”

Medvedev: “I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir.”

“This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility.” That statement tells us much about the president’s mindset.

The specific mention of missile defense is worrisome enough. Mr. Obama has retreated from the missile defense plan that was negotiated with European allies during the George W. Bush administration. Apparently, he is signaling Moscow that he intends to retreat further. The clear implication from the president’s comments is that he cannot tell the American people before the election what he plans to do after the election.

In addition, there is the phrase “on all these issues,” implying more is at stake than just missile defense.”

When it comes to keeping America safe, we shouldn’t be too flexible:

Normalcy bias is going to get all of us killed. Too many people cannot believe we have a hostile enemy agent in the White House.

Yes, we are really in a tough spot today, despite us being in the ‘information age’. We desperately need to find a cure for stupid.
