there are details of the "agreement" that seem to be important -------actually involving the legality of the
"agreement" itself. There are people implying that it was
never entirely valid because it was not ratified by the congress. Iran, itself, as an entity COMPLETELY adherent
to "agreements" has a record that easily disqualifies it----ie
a history of LOTS OF TREACHERY
whatever... as someone else pointed out, most of our agreements aren't ratified by Congress.
So how about answering the question- If we are seen as the people sandbagging the agreement, what impetus is there on our allies to enforce the parts we want enforced?
Never negotiate out of fear, always force your enemies to negotiate out of fear. Russia and China won't risk anything for those two basketcases. So NoKo and Iranistan will be all alone when the lights go out.
That's actually kind of retarded. The Russians have a vested interest in Iran. Iran is propping up their ally, Assad, and giving them warm water ports in the region, and Russia reached a 2.5 Billion deal with them recently.
Similarly, China has a lot invested in North Korea.
SO there will come a time when people realize that the Orange Shitgibbon is full of bluster and not much else.
