Iran's Nuclear Ambitions

Toko Black

Your sarcastic comment is not so sarcastic after all with a few slight changes:

So are the Israeli's also Iran is in danger of Godzilla the US attacking because I Trump saw that in a movie once too? Fox News/a Presentation from Netanyahu/a youtube conspiracy cartoon.

Trump keeps himself well up to date with what's going on. He's a regular viewer of Infowars after all.

If it was any other Leader that would be a hilarious statement.  With Trump it's more likely fact..and terrifying

Trump on Alec Jones : " Your reputation is amazing. I will not let you down "

During the election campaign, Trump appeared via video link on Infowars.

Trump dwindling loyal supporters, from where? The whole Arab world are jubilating and are behind Trump administration. Where you aware that the Democrats voted against this phony bill before Obama took to the UN? Glad you rightfully said that it's an agreement not a treaty, a very bad agreement that sidelines the West core allies In the Middle East.
You must be aware that before the presentation by Netanyahu, the world leaders have already been briefed on that treasure of intelligence weeks before?
Quite astonishing that UK and France will bomb Syria, but stood behind a deal that all but grant Iran a nuclear weapon seven years from now.

If it's such a terrible agreement, why haven't other countries pulled out of it too?  I suggested Trump has dwindling loyal supporters because he's becoming more and more of a laughing stock in the US and many other intelligent nations, which is exactly why he makes changes like this, to distract those idiots who still believe he's actually doing anything for the good of the country rather than himself and his family.

I forgot to say, did you mean Democrats like Rep. Eliot Engel, D-N.Y who voted against the deal in 2015 but has since (Oct 2017) encouraged Trump to keep it and enforce it (well, he was until Trump made the ridiculous decision to pull out of it entirely)

Democrats who opposed Iran nuclear deal urge Trump to keep pact

"Gen. Joseph Dunford, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told the Senate Armed Services Committee last week that Iran "is not in material breach of the agreement." Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said at the same hearing that the deal is still in the U.S. national security interest.

More than 180 House Democrats sent a letter to Trump last week calling on him to certify compliance unless he could produce "credible evidence of a material breach by Iran." Among the lawmakers who signed the letter were Engel and 12 other House Democrats who had criticized the deal when it was reached two years ago. Among them were Reps. Ted Deutch, D-Fla., and Nita Lowey, D-N.Y."

After all, what does the Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Defence Secretary and 180 House Democrats know anyway (including 12 that originally voted against it)?

The Iranian government is naughty.  You've really got to keep an eye on them.

For reference:

US senate comitee on foreign affairs votes 98/1 in favour of the Iran Nuclear Deal Review Act which demands Congress has the right to review the deal for approval or disapproval.

The Obama government pass over all the deal details to Congress for review.

The Senate's fails to gain enough support to move towards a vote on a disapproval of the deal.
It required 60 votes in favour but could only manage 58 for and 42 against.

The make up of the Senate (at the time of the debate/vote) was:
54 Republicans
44 Democrats
2 Independent​
Therefore - the support to Disapprove of the Iran deal was:
100%(54) of Republican Senators.
9%(4) of Democrat Senators.
0% of Independent Senators.​
Leaving those not supporting Disapproval as:
100%(2) of Independent Senators.
91%(40) of Democratic Senators.
0% of Republican Senators.​
Therefore, the review was carried out and failed to disapprove the deal leading to it being legally accepted by the President.

The House of Representatives also held a debate on Approval of the Deal but this was a symbolic gesture that did not have any impact on the legality of the Deal.

The makeup of the House of Representatives (at the time of the debate/vote) was:
247 Republicans (56.8%)
188 Democrats (43.2%)​
The vote for Approval of the deal failed 269 to 162

Therefore - those against Approving the Iran deal was:
100%(247) of Republican Representatives.
13.3%(25) of Democrat Representatives.​
Leaving those supporting Approval of the Iran deal as:
86.7%(163) of Democrat Representatives.
0% of Republican Representatives.
​So in summary according to the ACTUAL FACTS:

"the Democrats voted against this phony bill"

is patently false.
A minority(9%/4) of Democrats supported having a vote on Disapproval of the Deal.
A majority(91%/40) of Democrats DID NOT support a vote of Disapproval of the Deal.

A minority(13.3%/25) of Democrats symbolically voted against approving the Iran Deal.
A majority(86.7%/163) of Democrats symbolically voted to approve the Iran Deal.

Therefore, it does lead to a reasonable conclusion that where ever you got your information or ideas from is not exactly trustworthy .... or honest..... and probably the sort of place Trump does

Unlike Krish, I don't really have better things to do with my Sunday ...
