UNDOING OBAMA: PRESIDENT TRUMP DECERTIFIES IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL AND IMPOSES FINANCIAL AND ECONOMIC SANCTIONS – Re-Shared and administered by Aaron Halim



UNDOING OBAMA: PRESIDENT TRUMP DECERTIFIES IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL AND IMPOSES FINANCIAL AND ECONOMIC SANCTIONS

President Trump delivered a fire-breathing denunciation of the Iranian government, saying it financed terrorist groups, imprisoned Americans, plotted attacks on troops, and fomented civil wars in Iraq, Yemen and Syria. “Given the regime’s murderous past and present,” he said, “we should not take lightly its sinister vision for the future.”

PRESIDENT TRUMP ON FRIDAY MADE GOOD ON A LONG-RUNNING THREAT TO DISAVOW THE IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL THAT WAS NEGOTIATED BY HIS PREDECESSOR, BARACK OBAMA. BUT HE STOPPED SHORT OF UNRAVELING THE ACCORD OR EVEN REWRITING IT, AS THE DEAL’S DEFENDERS HAD ONCE FEARED.

EDITOR’S NOTE: This is why tens of millions of American patriots voted for Donald Trump in 2016. To undo the Islam-friendly actions of Barack Obama and to take steps to truly keep our nation safer and more secure. Trump’s speech fired on all 8 cylinders today, issuing a blistering denunciation of Iran’s pro-terror policies and aspirations. The snowflakes will be highly triggered today, so look for a run on skinny jeans, Starbucks and safe spaces. #MAGA
In a speech that mixed searing criticism of Iran with more measured action, President Trump declared his intention not to certify Iran’s compliance with the agreement. Doing so essentially kicks to Congress a decision about whether to reimpose sanctions on Iran, which would blow up the agreement.
“We will not continue down a path whose inevitable result is more violence, more chaos and Iran’s nuclear breakout,” Mr. Trump declared at the White House, as he laid out a broader strategy for confronting Iran.
The president derided the deal as “one of the worst and most one-sided transaction the United States has ever entered into.” But he added, “What’s done is done, and that’s why we are where we are.”

MR. TRUMP SAID HE WOULD ASK CONGRESS TO ESTABLISH “TRIGGER POINTS,” WHICH COULD PROMPT THE UNITED STATES TO REIMPOSE SANCTIONS ON IRAN IF IT CROSSES THRESHOLDS SET BY CONGRESS.

“In the event we are not able to reach a solution working with Congress and our allies, then the agreement will be terminated,” Mr. Trump said.
Those could include continued ballistic missile launches by Iran, a refusal to extend the duration of constraints on its nuclear fuel production, or a conclusion by the United States’ intelligence agencies that Iran could produce a nuclear weapon in less than a year.
