Biden should listen to the generals on Iran deal
2022-04-16
[NY Post] Finally, some common sense: In an open letter to President Joe Biden, 46 retired generals and admirals this week denounced the ongoing Iran deal negotiations.

"In Ukraine, we are bearing witness to the horrors of a country ruthlessly attacking its neighbor and, by brandishing its nuclear weapons, forcing the rest of the world largely to stand on the sidelines," they noted.

And: "The new Iran deal currently being negotiated, which Russia has played a central role in crafting, will enable the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism to cast its own nuclear shadow over the Middle East."

Biden is hell-bent on putting a new Iran deal in place despite all those begging him not to. A group of 18 House Democrats this month warned that it would be an even bigger disaster now than the 2015 Obama accord (which then-President Donald Trump wisely killed). Top US diplomats have quit the negotiating team over the weak positions they’ve been ordered to take.

Israeli experts estimate that Iran could go nuclear within four to six months under the deal Biden’s minions are negotiating. Why offer major concessions to a hostile regime for that?

Of all the Biden policies that leave us scratching our heads, this one takes the cake

#3  And his administration has overtly bullied financial institutions if they extend credit to oil/gas production and processing companies thereby blowing up their cash flows. Smaller firms are affected adversely.

#2  Biden didn’t really resume oil and gas leases. He opened up land for leases but made them unprofitable by doubling the royalties.
