We had a counter to Iran’s nuclear ambitions, but Trump ripped that up.

Iran never gave up their nuclear program so Trump was right to call them out on it.
Aly Rustom
just another excuse to start another war.

But he wasn't right to do it in an imbecilic manner that unleashed the China-Iran free trade.

Rubio..."Hamas cannot be a force that can threaten by use of violence..."
The US and Israel can ?
All the ME sees through the hypocrites

I'm more concerned with the nuclear weapons program of genocidal Israel.

Netanyahu still insisting Trumps plan of "relocation " of Palestinians away from Gaza "the only viable option "
Ethnic cleansing.

Iknowal....pretty sure International Inspectors determined Iran was complying with terms of the treaty not to produce weapons .
Iran could all convert to Judaism and Israel and the US would still want to attack them

Untrue. Iran were complying. The only reason that Trump pulled away from the agreement was that the Obama team negotiated it.
And he didn’t have a replacement deal.
Trump is good at breaking things. He’s not so good at building things.

Aussie media reporting Hamas willing to exclude itself from any future Governance in Gaza under a peace plan...presumably one that doesn't exclude Gazans from Gaza.

"Israel and America stand shoulder to shoulder in countering the threat of Iran," he said. "We agreed that the ayatollahs must not have nuclear weapons and also agreed that Iran's aggression in the region must be rolled back.""
By now the whole world in watched and knows damn well who is the aggressor, the Occupier, The war criminal, the land thieve, the ethnic cleanser, and the children / women killer in the region.

South Europe, North Africa, and ME should be more worried about the Zionists Nuclear stock piles first.

So 47’s ultimatum deadline to Hamas passed almost 2 days ago. What’s he going to do next? Whatever netanyahu tells him to.

Israel has consistently rejected UN troops on the ground in Gaza, cant see Israel agreeing to an Arab nation presence.
Israel has elections coming...maybe a change of Government ?

The problems with the plan to destabilize Iran by killing its economy and encouraging it's population to overthrow it is that it are many fold.
1) Iran is a full member of the world's largest trading organization BRICS, which will not allow it to be cut off.
2) Trump's currently destabilizing the second largest trading organization, the G7/20
3) Trump's administration is doing more to encourage the population of the US to overthrow him than he can to encourage the population of Iran to overthrow their own government
4) Trump's partner in this is actually less popular with the world at large than Trump's government
5) Both the US and Israel are going to be too busy dealing with the blowback of overthrowing Syria's government, the genocide against Palestinians, their war on Lebanon, and the effects of losing their mythological 'military supremacy' by depleting their non nuclear weapons stockpiles, while the country that is the present dominant force in the 'strategic sciences' will see helping Iran gain military parity (at least) in the region as useful both strategically and tactically domestically and internationally.

No, it was a bad deal.
GuruMick
Iknowall....you be reversing from the original assertion ...."Iran was developing nuclear weapons "
What happened ?
Now "it was a bad deal "
More meat on the sandwich please.

It was certainly better than no deal!
And it was working.

When the US has more oil and gas production then the attack on Iran will be forthcoming.
If there aren’t solar panels on your roof and a couple of large capacity batteries in your house then now is the time to purchase them.

The only way to possibly see the JCPOA as a 'bad deal' or 'not working' is to see the definitive debunking of the claims Iran has a nuclear weapons program, or the prevention of 'sanctions' based on conspiracy theories as problems.
Of course, to supporters of the genocidal scofflaw regime, those are indeed problems.

The total arrogance of these two Fascist states to hold court over a country that at least has moral over and above these two which cease having since 1945. If Iran did have nuclear in the 2000,S there not be the Afghanistan/ Iraqi wars. And Israel would have no alternative then to live in peace with it Muslim neighbours.
