Funny how it's always "nothing to see here" when it comes to every politician except one whose last name is TRUMP.
I get it now. Thanks for clearing that all up for me ely and mostpost.
You guys are a board treasure.

Iran is a top 20 (by voting power) member of the World Bank. Why couldn't the World Bank have been used as a means to transfer money from the US to Iran? I doubt they distribute money using planeloads of cash.

Iran now has missiles that can reach Israel.
European countries have been breaking US sanctions and banking with them.

Iran still is complying with the JCPOA.
Missiles were never part of the Nuclear deal. Europe is keeping their word. Iran is keeping theirs. The United States isn't.

JCPOA is a illusion we are no longer a part of, everything Obama did has or is in the process of being undone. Iran is but one step away from being completely destroyed. That is exactly the same place they were during the Bush 43 administration, and it did not happen. It may or may not happen during this administration, but if it does I expect changes here in OT.

You are some kind of ideologue...
Iran is complying with a multinational agreement. The rest of the world who signed the agreement is complying as well.
The United States pitched a fit and went home.
That's what actually happened. According to Congressional Testimony just this past week Iran is still honoring a agreement we unilaterally backed out of...

The US is doing the RIGHT thing.
No one else is.
Another reason to F europe
As I recall, they once all singed an agreement to allow Hitler to have his way.
If we are doing something Europe like, WE are the fools.

More nonsense...
What has actually happened is the United States welched on the global stage a deal several nations worked into making a reality.
Of course no arms agreement could survive without the almighty United States as part of the agreement... except it has. More proof of the damage this Administration has done to the long term credibility of this country.
Feel free to list off all of the benefits us throwing a tantrum and welching on deals has gotten us?
I said it when we withdrew and I'll say it now... none of your care whether an agreement is working or not... you all want war with Iran.
This has never been about national security or interests... it was a Obama deal so it must be bad.

Nonsense reply.
If we had stayed, there is still no benefit.
We got out so we are no longer aiding them.
That is our benefit.
Iran having missiles is in no way a good thing.

Aiding them? How?
This is where you make up stuff to justify us welching on deals. We let them have their money back and they agreed to end their weapons program... that was basically the deal.
Being known as a bad-faith partner in deals sure seems like a good trade for... well... nothing...
It's even more hilarious the agreement has survived without us... or SAD!
