America is the LAST country that can criticize "aggression" and "domestic oppression." "Don't do as I do, do as I say."

Beyond sanctions, how the U.S. can pressure Iran

Instead, we should be asking WHY the US should pressure Iran.

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo last week delivered a powerful speech that essentially defined U.S. policy objectives toward Iran by three noes: no nuclear program, no regional terrorism and aggression, and no domestic oppression.

I'm still waiting for a US 3 noes policy for Israel: no nuclear program, no regional terrorism and aggression, and no domestic oppression. Funny how Israel and US are actually doing everything they are accusing Iran of.

*Michael Makovsky is president and CEO of the Jewish Institute for National Security of America (JINSA) and a former Pentagon official. *

Ah, that explains everything.
