The Patriot Post® · Obama's Surrender on Iran
Political analyst Charles Krauthammer says Barack Obama’s speech to the UN on ISIL and airstrikes in the Middle East also contained a dangerous surrender on Iran’s nuclear program. “We no longer hear, ‘Iran cannot possess nukes; we’re not going to allow this; will not happen,’ Krauthammer observed. ”[Obama] says, ‘We’re in negotiations, Iran has an opportunity to rejoin the community of nations, this can only happen if Iran takes this historic opportunity’ – in other words, Iran will decide if it wants to go nuclear, no threats – forget about saying everything’s on the table. He doesn’t even talk about sanctions, which are collapsing. This week, a Chinese ship docked in an Iranian port so they could have joint naval exercises, and they’re still talking about how Iran is so isolated. This is a surrender on Iran as our negotiations are reaching a deadline within a month.“ As we warned Wednesday, Iran should not be allowed to gain leverage through this episode with ISIL.
