Oh it’s obvious it’s questionable electorally but at some level electoral decisions shouldn’t be influencing the US’s foreign policy and where they project force.
You should read Obama's book. You're the only person I know that would read his talk about how the president kills people and be like "he's a real one for that"

I can't read that right now, but why isn't just prolonging jcpoa arrangements possible to the hawks?
nevermind it was shorter than I thought. I think it is dumb to think a jcpoa will only work under those conditions. Especially when the regime is so vulnerable.
The only reason the Obama administration went with the JCPOA was because the EU, Russia, and China lobbied the Obama admin that they could prevent Iran from nuclearizing. China+Russia are now indifferent to Iranian nuclear ambitions due to ONG (China) and technology (Russia) dependencies, and the EU does not have the power projection capacity nor the economic linkages to stop Iran.
From what I understand, stopping the nuclear program all together was offered by Iran. Iran as an industrial military power is an existential threat to Israel; they’re proliferating ballistic missiles, loitering munitions to non-state actors; they’re supplying Russia with arms, etc.
Yeah I read that and think it is wrong.
Well he was a NSC staffer in the Obama administration lol
Not wrong that Iran is a threat to its neighbors and so is Israel. But I feel like the US demands for Iran this time were actually Israel's demands and we should say fuck them and just let them have their sanctions relief and uranium allowed under the NPT.
I definitely have Israel Derangement Syndrome, not TDS. But I think it is justified
you're an antagonistic gremlin archetype nobody is fucking bullying you lmfao

You need to start going to church.
Which sect are we joining
Israel is our greatest ally.
Just wear the neocon label proudly at this point
Let’s say that Donald Trump goes “the Jews control the media we’re done with Israel” what do you think happens lmao
Didn't ask. I can't take you seriously until you accept Jesus Christ as your savior.
I dont know but I bet if he said "Netanyahu's dick is not tasty. Everyone knows it. The American people don't want to suck it anymore. They're saying 'get it out of our mouths!' And I will. I will." then Republicans get 80% of congress.
So what, Iran builds a larger and larger missile stockpile and then we’re forced to abandon every single air base in the Middle East?
“We don’t like Israel’s Gaza policy so we’re going to burn our entire military apparatus designed to fight with them against our rival in the area”
