Iran in Panic Mode, Scrambles to Save Nuclear Deal
Washington Free Beacon ^ | May 15, 2018 | Adam Kredo

Posted on 05/15/2018 3:31:16 PM PDT by detective

The Iranian ruling regime is racing to save the landmark nuclear deal after President Donald Trump bucked European powers and walked away from the agreement with a vow to reimpose a package of harsh sanctions on the Islamic Republic, according to U.S. officials and regional experts who say the hardline regime is scared about losing the sweetheart deal.

Leading Iranian officials have been locked in tense meetings with European countries and former U.S. officials to ensure they continue to uphold the deal and keep doing business with the Islamic Republic.

Restoring sanctions will cripple Iran's economy.

And Trump will do it.

Iran is right to be scared.

They had a deal as long as a Democrat was in the White House. Either (a) they were sure Hillary was going to get in, or (b) they were really stupid and didn’t do their homework.

China must have told them: “We won’t support you alone.”

France has never been interested in opposing terrorism. They’ll want to keep the deal no matter how much Iran ignores their end of it.

I say turn the screws on the EU to keep them in line. I want to see who all got bribes to go for this deal in the first place.

Demand your bribe money back Iran.
They sold you a bill of goods.
Made promises they didn’t deliver on.

Yeah, the substance of the “deal” made ratification neccessary. Some things have to be done by treaty, not executive actions.

China will own Iran if it continues.

Follow up by telling non Iranian companies they can do business with America or Iran but not both. Their choice.

I know this will get me in trouble but who cares? I still contend they shot the wrong JFK.
