Reaction to #Iran deal:
Bullet points:
- I believe Obama announced it at Oh-Dark-30 to get his reaction out there before Iran’s articulation of deal and open mockery of US idiocy.
- Assured Iran WILL get nuke.
- Unfreezes $100 billion which represents 40% of their GDP which can and will be used to bankroll Hezbollah, Assad, Hamas. It’s like cutting Hitler a check and then telling him to do good things with it –and being so gullible you believe him.
- Arms embargo is taken off. Why? The President says this agreement won’t allow them to get nuke and then gives entree to others. Do you think they might use the assets to buy weapons?
- Leaves our political prisoners in their prisons.
- Gives money to Monsters who killed our soldiers in Iraq and let the bomb making maestro out of the deal.
- Just further destabilized the Middle East.
- No anytime anywhere inspections. Rubes.

We do not seek #WMDs, nor exerting pressure on regional states. We call for greater brotherhood, unity and further expansion of ties.
Tell that to these gay guys you hanged recently.
More to come.
