Iran was going to get the bomb anyway, they were never going to stop pursuing it. If this agreement can slow down their process a few years there is opportunity to organize a CIA sanctioned overthrow of the government in Iran and the establishment of a government there more in line with our goals. Regardless of what the President did, Iran was still going to do what they wanted. I don't think the President did a terrible job here, he basically kicked the can down the road buying time.

I assure you that Pakistan and India would have had full blown war by now if both countries didn't have nuclear arsenal.
Speaking of Pakistan- isn't that nation far more radical than Iran? Since 9-11 Pakistan has been a safe haven for Al-queada operatives and was the home to OBL. Pakistan is also home to a Taliban sect that is far more brutal than their afghan version. How many coup attempts and Presidential assassinations has Pakistan had in the last 20 years alone?
Iran has has no coup attempts since the revolution in 1979 nor are they home to any more terror organizations yet you guys have no problem with Pakistan having nukes but want to go ape shit crazy if Iran gets a nuke.
Also, why Israel is butt fucking Republicans and pull their strings- I don't any talk of Israel relinquishing it's nukes. It's been a known secret that Israel has had nukes since the early 80's- oh some of you may say- well Israel is surrounded by enemies... which I agree- but have you been paying attention to the middle east? Iran is surrounded by enemies as well- they are the only SHIITE Theocracy in the middle east. Both Al-Queada and ISIS don't consider Shiites as true muslims and will kill them on the spot- Iran has every right to protect it's border and defend it's land just like any other sovereign nation.
