The sanctions were going to end. If we did nothing they would end, we get nothing and Iran walks away with the cash. We don't hold enough economic leverage over Iran to sanction them ourselves.
Guess they think a bad deal is better than no deal at all.
What a shame.
I've heard that a lot. Can you clarify that please? Why is no deal better than this one?
because this deal gives the iranians everything they want, the ability to build nukes, release of billions of dollars, no real inspection provisions (24 day notice, are you fricking crazy?).
Iran will have nuclear bombs, they will probably sell one or two to ISIS.
Now, you asked for the alternative to this "deal". Keep the sanctions in place. Destroy their economy. support the opposition in Iran and help them remove the radical ayatollahs. Support the real iranian people and bring the country back into the 21st century. This deal got us nothing, we surrendered, and you idiots are applauding like jackasses.
We had four choices.
Do nothing
Take the deal
Bomb them
Invade
Taking the deal doesn't remove the others as options.
24hrs notice for inspectors?
Yes because we all know it's simple to hide your entire nuclear program in 24 hrs.
the inspection requirements are 24 days, no hours. Its a joke
the sanctions could have been continued, we had all the chips in this deal and didn't use them, its called incompetence.
We got nothing in the deal, NOTHING. At least Schumer is smart enough to see through the BS.
The options were not, and are not, the deal or war. Thats simply idiotic.
