IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL: DEMOCRATS HAVE SOLD OUT THEIR COUNTRY Posted: 17 Jan 2016 12:02 AM PST In what reality, does a single political party with a radically transformative leadership sell out the United States unilaterally without a vote of Congress? Making the entire nation and its allies vulnerable to foreign military aggression and blackmail by a soon-to-be nuclear power. And, does this singular action by the leadership rise to the level of treason, the crime of betraying one's country? 
The background: Iran is the world’s leading sponsor of state-directed terrorism against the United States and its allies, through proxies and the provision of enhanced weaponry responsible for killing or grievously maiming United States personnel. The Obama Administration has agreed to return over $100 BILLION or more in previously blocked funds that can be used for the development of nuclear weapons and intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of reaching the continental United States. Funds that can reduce the economic pressures on the current repressive regime, reduce the possibility of any internal revolt over deteriorating internal conditions in Iran, and allow the expenditure of billions in Russia for Russian arms. The side-deals to the Agreement, especially those involving the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency), have never been fully disclosed to members of Congress, the public, or our allies. Iran has zero credibility and trustworthiness when it comes to keeping diplomatic accords and/or permitting the types of inspection that would reveal violations of the current nuclear agreement. Iran’s intransigence to international norms and insolence continues with the shouting of “Death to America” at the highest levels of the government and broadcast world-wide. The betrayal … U.S. lifts sanctions against Iran, says nuclear deal obligations have been metCompleting a major diplomatic effort over the objections of many in Congress, President Obama lifted economic sanctions against Iran Saturday after the U.N. atomic watchdog agency determined that Tehran has complied with the deal to curb its nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. In a statement, Secretary of State John F. Kerry said the sanctions termination provisions of Iran’s landmark nuclear agreement are now in effect. Mr. Obama signed the orders Saturday afternoon, saying Iran’s compliance with the deal “marks a fundamental shift in circumstances with respect to Iran’s nuclear program.” Removing the sanctions is part of the international agreement reached last year among Iran, the U.S. and five other world powers when Iran agreed to curbs on its nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. Certification by the International Atomic Energy Agency will allow Iran to immediately recoup some $100 billion in assets frozen overseas. Iran will also see huge benefits from new oil, trade and financial opportunities after Western sanctions against it are lifted. IAEA director general Yukiya Amano said Saturday this means “relations between Iran and the IAEA now enter a new phase. It is an important day for the international community. I congratulate all those who helped make it a reality.” Read more at: U.S. lifts sanctions against Iran, says nuclear deal obligations have been met - Washington Times
Apparently, President Obama and his advisors, most of whom appear to be naïve and incompetent when it comes to foreign policy, have decided that the risk of a belligerent Iran is an acceptable one as they appear to feel that Iran should be a co-equal nuclear power to Israel and serve to stabilize the Middle East. Unfortunately, it appears that the President of the United States and his cohort of black anti-America, anti-White, anti-Jew, anti-Israel supporters have decided to disadvantage our ally Israel in favor of a repressive religious regime whose religious beliefs include a man-made apocalypse that will result in the restoration of a Muslim-dominated world. What you may not know … - Iran is facing an existential demographic threat as the birthrate is down and women are fleeing Iran. Without military-age men to defend their nation, they are relying on nuclear weaponry to protect their country. They are using the North Korea model of untouchability.
- In an old civilization like Persia, waiting an additional ten years to “introduce” actual weapons is meaningless.
- It is also possible that Iran has links with North Korea and Pakistan who are already nuclear powers. As do the Saudis who appear to be planning to purchase nuclear arms from Pakistan since they can no longer trust America – especially under the Obama Administration.
- This Agreement was a treaty that should have been ratified by the Senate instead of being an administrative agreement signed by the President.
- All of the states in the region are against an Iranian nuclear capability and will respond by purchasing weapons of their own.
- The Iranians have already done the heavy lifting in enriching uranium to 5% and the route to weapons-grade enrichment are much easier and require less time and energy.
- There are no Americans on the inspection teams of the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency). And, they have large geographical spaces in which to hide weapons development facilities.
- The Iranians are self-reporting their “declared” weapon stocks and the Russians are doing the accounting on nuclear materials transported to Russia. A massive conflict of interest given that Iranians are purchasing weapons from Russians. Many of the new-found billions will flow to Russia to purchase air defense equipment and other arms. So the Russians have an incentive to lie about the Iranian stockpiles of nuclear material.
- Iran’s oil is coming on to the broader marketplace, so look to a global disruption in the markets. Look for conflict in the region to grow; especially since the United States, Canada, and Mexico are relatively energy independent. And, Russian can not afford for oil to go below $20 per barrel.
- Will the special interest whores like the American defense contractors lobby Congress to go easy on Iran if American companies get some of the money. See if Boeing in selected over Airbus for domestic Iranian aircraft?
Read for yourself the executive order … 
Executive Order -- Revocation of Executive Orders 13574, 13590, 13622, and 13645 with Respect to Iran, Amendment of Executive Order 13628 with Respect to Iran, and Provision of Implementation Authorities for Aspects of Certain Statutory Sanctions
I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, have determined that Iran's implementation of the nuclear related measures specified in sections 15.1-15.11 of Annex V of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action of July 14, 2015 (JCPOA) between the P5+1 (China, France, Germany, the Russian Federation, the United Kingdom, and the United States), the European Union, and Iran, as verified by the International Atomic Energy Agency, marks a fundamental shift in circumstances with respect to Iran's nuclear program. In order to give effect to the United States commitments with respect to sanctions described in section 4 of Annex II and section 17.4 of Annex V of the JCPOA, I am revoking Executive Orders 13574 of May 23, 2011, 13590 of November 20, 2011, 13622 of July 30, 2012, and 13645 of June 3, 2013, and amending Executive Order 13628 of October 9, 2012, by revoking sections 5 through 7 and section 15. In addition, in section 3 of this order, I am taking steps with respect to the national emergency declared in Executive Order 12957 of March 15, 1995, to provide implementation authorities for aspects of certain statutory sanctions that are outside the scope of the U.S. commitment to lift nuclear-related sanctions under the JCPOA. This action is not intended to, and does not, limit the applicability of waiver determinations or any renewals thereof issued by the Secretary of State, or licenses issued by the Secretary of the Treasury, to give effect to sanctions commitments described in sections 17.1-17.3 and 17.5 of Annex V of the JCPOA, or otherwise affect the national emergency declared in Executive Order 12957, which shall remain in place, or any Executive Order issued in furtherance of that national emergency other than Executive Orders 13574, 13590, 13622, 13628, and 13645.

Bottom line … Never before have the democrats so weakened the United States and made the world more vulnerable to nuclear terror. For their contribution to global instability and the increased terror threat to the United States, I believe it would be appropriate for all rational Americans to shun the democrat party in the upcoming elections and consider the prosecution of Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and John Kerry as traitors to the United States. In what reality do we make our sworn enemies – the people shouting “Death to America” stronger when they are still fighting against America and her allies in an undeclared war? In what reality do we turn our previous allies – even the dodgy ones – against us by empowering their traditional enemies with existential nuclear weaponry? In what reality do we sit back and watch the democrat party become the neo communist party of the United States? We are so screwed. -- steve |
