They never did this under Obama.
Will Trump supporters criticize Trump for pulling out of the deal that looks to now be sending us to war?
Will they credit Obama who Iran never tested like this?
Or will they somehow blame Hillary.
We'll see.
Iran could avoid both sanctions and potential war by entirely giving up their nuclear weapons program for good. Mind you they told us years ago they don't want nuclear weapons so let's kindly take them at their word. While I'm not a fan of a war with Iran to paint them as a cowering victim in this scenario is horribly disingenuous. Iran is a demonstrable state sponsor of terrorism, a radical theocracy that engages in horrible treatment of its citizens and has expressed a desire to utterly destroy another nation in the Middle East. Is this the sort of country you want possessing nuclear weapons? If so, just have the courage to say so. If not then do the same. There is an honest debate to be had about whether the former deal with Iran was the best way to achieve nuclear disarmament. Regardless, that is no longer a possibility, so the choice remains with Iran. Persist in pursuing nuclear weapons and risk war or abandon attempts to make them and completely avoid any risk of war.
