A False Choice With Iran
Obama paints the wrong picture.
The Obama administration released some details of the latest deal with Iran, and we once again warn that the agreement is far to generous to the Iranians. President Hasan Rouhani boasted that “world powers surrendered to [Iran’s] will.” Meanwhile, a new sanctions bill is working its way forward in the Senate, despite administration warnings that it would push the nation toward war with Iran. The Wall Street Journal concludes, however, “So Americans are supposed to believe that the only choice is between war and whatever Mr. Obama negotiates. But the far more likely path to war is a bad deal that induces Israel to strike and drives the Saudis and Turks to get their own bomb. Mr. Obama’s opposition to the Senate sanctions bill shows how much it is needed.”
