Maybe ripping up the international plan to keep Iran from gaining nuclear weapons during his first term wasn’t the best idea.

Maybe ripping up the international plan to keep Iran from gaining nuclear weapons during his first term wasn’t the best idea.
- dotancohen 7mo agoThat plan would have expired ten years after January 2016. In other words, already excited two months ago. It was a ten year plan, not a permanent plan.
- macintux 7mo agoThat's still ten years of collaboration that could have built greater trust, led to a new agreement, or worst case provided enough evidence to take a more precise military action instead of bombing girls schools.
- dotancohen 7mo agoBuild greater trust? The Iranian regime's identity is based on anti-American rhetoric. They fund Hamas and Hezbollah because Israel is an American ally. They say this in their marches and their speeches and their rallies. You are suggesting that these people change their entire identity to suit your notion that the world should be peaceful. Would you suggest that a metalhead not wear leather because you don't like loud music? Would you suggest that a gay man "be normal" because "God doesn't like gays"? Identity is not something you change in other people. Unless you're some colonial conquerer forcing your culture on others.
