WHY THE OBAMA DEAL WITH IRAN IS SO BAD - A PRIMER.

Obama in SOTU: If John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan could negotiate with the Soviet Union, then surely a strong and confident America can negotiate with less powerful adversaries (like Iran) today.

Lloyd Bentsen's ghost to Obama: I served with Jack Kennedy. I knew Jack Kennedy. Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine. And you're no Jack Kennedy.

If Obama thinks his negotiating abilities are even close to being on a par with Reagan or JFK, he is completely delusional. Originally Posted by lustylad

With the Iranians, we are dealing with a People who are controlled by a Religion that preaches the doctrine that there is no greater glory than to die for Allah and take as many infidels with you as possible.

In yesterday’s State of the Union address President Obama spoke stridently of how “American diplomacy … has halted the progress of Iran’s nuclear program—and rolled back parts of that program.” The president spoke with apparent pride of the “peaceful” efforts being taken to prevent Iran from gaining nuclear weapons. How then to explain the fact that less than twenty-four hours after that speech was given, the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence was being informed that Iran essentially already has breakout capacity for building the bomb should it wish to do so?

While presenting the annual report on the worldwide threat assessment before the committee, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper spoke of Iran’s extensive progress in expanding its nuclear and military infrastructure, including further work on its heavy-water facility at Arak. Clapper stated that “these technical advancements strengthen our assessment that Iran has the scientific, technical, and industrial capacity to eventually produce nuclear weapons. This makes the central issue its political will to do so.” In a roundabout way, it would seem that we are being told that Iran is now ready and able to get the bomb, and all that remains to be seen is whether it is willing. With that comes the implication that this “political willingness” is the last thing that we might have any leverage over.
