A Foolish Agreement with Iran




The Obama administration is in the process of pushing through an agreement with Iran over its nuclear ambitions. This agreement has all the earmarks of the worst idea President Obama has come up with yet. The very idea of dealing in treaty-mode with a deceitful nation like Iran is just unbelievable to me; and I think it is the worst example I have seen so far in the litany of lousy foreign policy moves he has made.

 

These talks with Iran sound very much to me like the talks Neville Chamberlain had with Adolph Hitler in 1938 at Munich. At that conference, Chamberlain agreed to Germany’s annexation of parts of Czechoslovakia along the border of Germany; the area was subsequently named the Sudetenland. The agreement was the prelude to World War II. Winston Churchill admonished Chamberlain after the meeting, “You were given the choice between war and dishonor. You chose dishonor and you will have war.” Our weak president is choosing peace at any price and he will ultimately involve us in the most disadvantageous situation imaginable in the Middle East.

 

Obama is threatening to use U.N. Security Council pressure against Israel to force that country into his bad plan for a supposed solution to the Iranian nuclear threat. Israel is in the thick of the controversy and recognizes that the Obama solution will only provide a temporary respite in the Iranian nuclear program. President Obama is allowing his petulance and animosity toward Prime Minister Netanyahu to cause our nation to contribute to the delegitimization of our best ally in the Middle East, Israel, while it legitimizes our worst enemy, Iran and allows Iran to get a path to the atomic bomb.
