The Iran treaty was working and the inspections show that Iran was complying with the requirements. The U.S. sanctions are harmful since they interfere with diplomacy. The true supporters of terrorism are the Saudis, yet Trump won’t even admit that they murdered Jamal Khashoggi.
All we did is lower the cost that China will need to pay for the oil THAT THEY WILL BE BUYING FROM IRAN. And as long as we are still having a trade war with China we will have NO say in the matter.
Keep at it Lisa. Reading the comments here helps me understand Jimmy Carter did us a big favor by helping the Ayatollah Khomeini overthrow the Shah. Glad to get the update that Iran was apparently our ally until Trump became president.
Why do those people hate us? When we overthrew their government and reinstalled a dictator back in the early 50’s, inflicting decades of torture and oppression upon the population, it was for their own damn good! /s
Why is Bolton such a chicken hawk anyway? Was he born that way or is it circumstantial? I know why Il Dupe does it: He’s trying to get us looking that way instead of paying attention to what’s going on with his financials.

That’s what you get for being an independent thinking Muslim country with oil.

We don’t want your pipeline to compete with the terrorism pipeline of our allies, the Saudis.

At first I thought it was the Saudi’s terrorism pipeline.

There is truth in this. From direct funding to providing weapons. They’re not the only nation doing this.

America hates competition.. if there is any funding of terrorism it must be approved by America.

Hey Lisa, are you aware that the funding for the 911 attack came from your guy Trump’s favorite country, Saudi Arabia?

Speaking of terrorists… Saudi Arabia! Remember 9/11?

We had a deal, but Trump broke it so he could start the drum beat to a war we can not afford getting in to.

^ Never an ally; just a peaceful coexistence under Obama. Now, under Trump, an enemy again.

Anyone remember “Iran/Contra”, and the Marines killed by terrorists in Beirut, using materials with the proceeds?
