Actually no, us citizens were awarded damages from Iran in US courts

Not surprisingly, another Berg TDS thread.After trump's ill-fated, reckless decision to withdraw from the JCPOA, eventually causing this war, he said he would negotiate a better deal. He failed. With the US imposing heavy economic sanctions on Iran, the offer of lifting sanctions being what brought it to the negotiating table in the first place, it announced it would withdraw from the agreement on May 8, 2019. Exactly 1 year after Don essentially killed it.
A timeline of tensions over Iran's nuclear program as talks with U.S. approach
Iran and the United States are due to hold new talks in Geneva on Thursday over Tehran's nuclear program.www.pbs.org
In response, Obama made a prediction.
Trump says U.S. pulling out of ‘rotten’ nuclear deal
The move makes good on Trump’s insistence that the deal was too generous, allowing Iran to keep a mostly dormant nuclear program that Trump said could quickly produce a nuclear bomb once the deal’s provisions expire in the middle of the next decade.
But it further strains relations with key European allies, who have spent months urging Trump to sustain the agreement. It also came over the opposition of China and Russia, which were also parties to the 2015 deal.
And it drew an unusual public rebuke from former President Barack Obama himself, who invoked the specter of military conflict.
“Without the [Iran deal], the United States could eventually be left with a losing choice between a nuclear-armed Iran or another war in the Middle East,” Obama said in a lengthy statement.
Many former Obama administration officials suspect that Trump’s decision was, in part personal — that he was motivated by a desire to gut Obama’s foreign policy legacy. Obama aides, including former Secretary of State John Kerry, spent years pushing sanctions and hundreds of hours painstakingly negotiating the deal over some 18 months, and Trump’s decision left some of them dejected.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, meanwhile, said he had ordered his foreign minister to begin negotiating with other countries to salvage the deal, according to The Associated Press. He added that if those talks fail, Iran will once against enrich uranium “more than before … in the next weeks.”
But Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — a vociferous critic of the deal who calls Iran an existential threat to his country — praised Trump’s “bold decision.”
Naturally, trump apologists have made all manner of factually incorrect allegations about the agreement made in 2015 designed to stop Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. They amount to nothing more than a parroting of trump's lies about the adequacy of the JCPOA. Ultimately, Obama's comments following the withdrawal have proven to be prescient. So too Hillary's comments about trump's lack of fitness to lead the nation. If only we had listened.
I agree with Obama. Either war with Iran or a nuclear armed Iran. Which do YOU prefer?After trump's ill-fated, reckless decision to withdraw from the JCPOA, eventually causing this war, he said he would negotiate a better deal. He failed.

A decade later, the Trump administration is on the defensive as it tries to justify temporarily lifting sanctions on 140 million barrels of Iranian oil that is currently sitting at sea. With oil prices hovering around $100 a barrel, the sanctions relief, which is intended to boost global supplies of crude to ease energy prices, could give Iran a $14 billion windfall at the same time the United States is waging a war on the country.
That’s not true, Iran has been in violation other NPT for decades
There’s very little to learn from him. He talks so much but says so little.
After Trump allowed them to build nukes
I would agree with that decision. They were the recognized government. Whether we liked that or not really doesnt matter. We shouldnt be allowed to steal another country's money because we arent boys anymore.
How exactly did Iran proliferate nuclear weapons technology they dont have?
Except that Iran doesnt have nukes so there's that.
You have to ignore the US intel agency's assessment, the IAEA's assessment, and the assessment of the scientific community........
What was the Iran deal?
I know what the deal was, but I want to hear your version. Go ahead.
You keep believing Iran abandoned nuclear programs.
You keep repeating Trumps lie
How long was the Obama deal with Iran before it expired?
