Obama's Iran nuke deal worse than we thought

Democrats running away from it as fast as they can.
 
When President Barack Obama announced the “one-time gesture” of releasing Iranian-born prisoners who “were not charged with terrorism or any violent offenses” last year, his administration presented the move as a modest trade-off for the greater good of the Iran nuclear agreement and Tehran’s pledge to free five Americans.

“Iran had a significantly higher number of individuals, of course, at the beginning of this negotiation that they would have liked to have seen released,” one senior Obama administration official told reporters in a background briefing arranged by the White House, adding that “we were able to winnow that down to these seven individuals, six of whom are Iranian-Americans.”

But Obama, the senior official and other administration representatives weren’t telling the whole story on Jan. 17, 2016, in their highly choreographed rollout of the prisoner swap and simultaneous implementation of the six-party nuclear deal,

Obama portrayed the seven men he freed as “civilians.” The senior official described them as businessmen convicted of or awaiting trial for mere “sanctions-related offenses

In reality, some of them were accused by Obama’s own Justice Department of posing threats to national security.
 
Trump campaigned against the idiocy of the Bush wars....As bad as the deal maybe Trump has to support it and stay out of the wars...If he attacks he will look like shit
You are probably correct but one day if the Iranians don't have a change of heart we will have to change it for them.
Hopefully this new information will help to pressure Iran back to the table. A full review of the deal is underway right now. It was negotiated by weak liberals desperate for a political triumph to pin on their chest. How Obama can still show his face in public is astounding to say the least.
 
OP- Piffle- when the hell has that kind of stuff been part of a nuclear arms deal? Iran wants to be a normal country- they are the best educated and youngest ME country- stop pushing them into the arms of the Revolutionary Guard and the fundamentalists...
