Political grandstanding .. Trump's announcement to keep the Deep State, Israel (did I stutter?), MIC and others happy so he lives another day and does not get JFK'd
Moon of Alabama says:
"Trump will reimpose U.S. sanctions on Iran because:
- The nuclear deal was negotiated by the Obama administration and thus must be bad;
- Israel wants to keep Iran as the boogeyman;
- the Zionists and right wing nuts in the U.S. want the U.S. to attack Iran;
- MAGA - Trump needs Iran as enemy of the Gulf states to sell more U.S. weapons..."
Moon of Alabama goes on to say:
".. Iran will largely stick to the nuclear deal if the EU effectively defends it and does not hinder Iranian deals with European companies. If the EU fails to do so the nuclear agreement will be null and void. Iran will leave the deal. The neoliberal Rouhani government that agreed to the deal will fall and the conservatives will be back. They will defend Iran's sovereignty at all costs..."
Iran is much stronger now than it was 5 or 10 years ago, but it has ab outdated military weapon system that could never take things offensively for very long BUT they are being pushed into Russia's orbit ... just as a decimated Iraq left Iran strong in the region and so UK, Saudi, Israel and US ramped up ISIS .. McCain's/Clinton's grandkids ..
".. The U.S. seems to believe it can go back to the same position Obama had build up in the years before the nuclear deal. Iran was under UN sanctions and all countries, including China and Russia, held them up. The Iranian economy was in serious trouble. It needed to negotiate a way out. That situation will not come back. U.S. credibility has been seriously damaged. Its soft power is gone. Its hard power has shown to be inadequate in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria..."
The US has proven only that it can effectively drive all Christians from several countries in the ME while being supported at home by almost the entire Christian clergy class .. sick, amirite?
".. China and Russia are both making huge deals with Iran and are now effectively its protectors. While they have no common ideology all three oppose a globalized world under exclusive "western" rules. They have the economic power, the population and resources to do so. Neither the U.S. nor Europe has come to terms with that..."
The US's stupid and short-sighted decision (typical of presidents with a short shelf-life) has only increased the rate at which its role on this globe is seen as evil vs. good by the rest of the world.
".. Iran has not only new allies but gained in the Middle East because of U.S., Israeli and Saudi stupidity. The wars on Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Yemen have all strengthened Iran's position while it largely kept largely out of them. The recent election in Lebanon went well for the 'resistance' camp. Within Lebanon Hizbullah can no longer be challenged. The upcoming elections in Iraq will result in another Iran-friendly government. The Syrian army is winning the war waged against the country. The U.S. position in Afghanistan is hopeless. Saudi Arabia is now in a fight with the UAE over the war on Yemen. The GCC spat with Qatar is still unsolved..."
The US, involving itself in so many ways around the globe has lost its way ...
"... While Israel wants to keep Iran as a boogeyman to divert attention from its genocidal campaign against Palestinians, it does not want a large war. Hizbullah in Lebanon has enough missiles to make modern life in Israel untenable. A war on Iran could easily end up with Tel Aviv in flames..."
Israel as well as its closest ME ally Saudi Arabia are also on the short list for their agendas ... the future is actually pretty bleak for all ISIS supporting countries and this will not end well.
