Is this the biggest mistake of the trump era?

[berg80]

The JCPOA was as weak and worthless as the president who signed it.

Yes, well, that's the party line. But the facts tell a different story. The point at which you need to begin any discussion involving trump is to remember he is an ignorant, inveterate liar who lies pathologically. So nothing, NOTHING, he says can be taken at face value. He tore up the JCPOA because he wanted to undo every success Obama had. BTW, Obama wasn't alone in approving to the agreement. China, France, Russia, UK, US, plus Germany, along with the EU were signatories.

Yes! Because terrorist states always adhere to signed agreements.

Snark doesn't change the fact Iran was in compliance.

Claim 17: The deal, if implemented, will expire after 10 or 15 years and allow Iran to build a nuclear weapon at that time.​

The Facts:​

According to the comprehensive agreement, for at least 15 years, Iran will only enrich uranium up to 3.67 percent (uranium enriched at 20% or lower is considered low enriched uranium (LEU); uranium enriched above 90% is weapons grade.)

This does not, however, mean that on day one of year 16, Iran will have enough weapons-grade uranium to build a bomb. Yes, after 15 years Iran could begin enriching uranium beyond 3.67 percent. But without this deal, Iran could head for a bomb tomorrow.

Some aspects of the agreement will last 25 years, including the monitoring of Iran’s uranium mines and supply chain. Other aspects, such as the implementation of robust IAEA safeguards and access to investigate suspicious sites for illicit nuclear activity, are permanent. Regardless of what specific restrictions are lifted, Iran is still prohibited from pursuing nuclear weapons. Any activity that is clearly not intended for “peaceful use” (i.e. highly enriching uranium) will raise red flags and trigger a response from the international community.

Ultimately, the deal rolls back Iran’s nuclear program for more than a decade, pushing Iran’s “breakout time” (time it would take to enrich enough nuclear material for 1 nuclear weapon) from a few months to at least one year. It also gives IAEA inspectors greater insight for monitoring Iran’s nuclear program well into the future.

The JCPOA was i joke. We gave them $56,000,000,000 and they prevented inspectors from inspecting.

Trump was right as usual. No nuclear bombs, period.
