Biden is determined to return to the (to him) halcyon days of Obama's Iran deal — an illegal treaty by which Obama gave Iran money and access to nuclear weapons. The real tragedy of Biden's goal is that, thanks to Trump's relentless pressure, Iran is on the ropes, and Biden has the upper hand — he just doesn't know this or, worse, doesn't want to know it.
In Iran and the Middle East, when Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, emerges in public, people say he only speaks evil and issues threats. On Monday, February 22, after Iran and the IAEA reached a temporary agreement about nuclear surveillance, Khamenei announced that he would increase uranium enrichment to 60%. At his command, the IRGC ordered the armed Houthis to attach the Yemeni city of Marib, threatening the densely populated city. Iraqi armed groups loyal to IRGC attacked the U.S. embassy in Baghdad and targeted a U.S. military base in Balad in central Iraq, injuring several civilians.
A glance at developments in the six weeks since Biden took office shows that Iran is testing the new White House. Khamenei and the IRGC seem to have concluded that the new president is weak, in stark contrast to Trump. Neither Biden nor official Washington has spoken about Iran's aggression and both the administration and the media downplayed, and denied responsibility for, the recent targeted strike in Syria.
What Biden doesn't realize is that Khamenei in 2021 is qualitatively different from Khamenei in 2015, when Biden's boss, Obama, was pushing for the Iran deal. When Trump assassinated Qassem Soleimani and started delivering peace in the Middle East, Khamenei's regional imperial dreams suffered a serious blow.

Biden doesn’t understand how toast works, so this is no surprise.
Battle?
Are they haggling over Biden’s price to be bought?
Iran under the present form of government has existed for more than 40 years. It seems strong enough to jeep surviving.
It is really between Iran and our military. Biden and the civilian gov’t are out of the loop and disconnected.
All the articles I’ve read say “Biden” as if he’s the one calling the shots. I doubt that, even if he’s involved, that his comments hold any weight. He was signing EO’s and said, “I don’t know what the Hell I’m signing.”. Harris said, “Sing it anyway.”. And, he did. So, who is bombing Syria? Who is negotiating with Iran? Who really canceled the pipeline? We probably won’t know for fifty years.
Iran is acting now EXACTLY because they know the Left has deeply divided America, and that Biden is a dementia patient pushed forward by the DNC and deep state.
The bad news is that Biden seemingly doesn’t understand this.
...I’m sure that Obam...er, uh...Soro...Hilla, um, China...Biden is aware.
Trump pushed it to its limit. If Trump had a second term, it probably would not have survived. But Biden will come to its rescue.
When you get Iran on the ropes along comes a Democrat
Uncle joe is weaker than he wants us to think. He will bow down in submission to his new masters and give them whatever they want.
Battle of the decade
Khamenei vs Biden
Round 1 by KO 15 sec in: Khamenei
And who decided it was weaker than it appears? Let’s ask Net...

A glance at developments in the six weeks since Biden's handlers took office shows that Iran is testing the puppeteers in the new White House. Khamenei and the IRGC seem to have concluded that the new president has dementia and is more worried about pudding pops and not soiling his adult diaper, in stark contrast to Trump. Neither Biden's handlers nor official Washington has spoken about Iran's aggression and both the administration and the media downplayed, and denied responsibility for, the recent targeted strike in Syria.
What Biden's puppeteers don't realize is that Khamenei in 2021 is qualitatively different from Khamenei in 2015, when Biden's boss, Obama, was pushing for the Iran deal.
