The deal stinks in keeping with the Obama administration.

Submitted by William Horick (not verified) : Jul 16, 2015 4:23pm

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the highest authority in Iran, told supporters on Saturday, July 18, that U.S. policies in the region were "180 degrees" opposed to Iran's, in a Tehran speech punctuated by chants of "Death to America" and "Death to Israel".
“Even after this deal, our policy toward the arrogant U.S. will not change. We don’t have any negotiations or deal with the U.S. on different issues in the world or the region.”

Anyone who thinks this deal is good needs their head examined.

I agree whole heartedly with the comment above , about the smell of this Present administration , Without mentioning here all the Failures of this person in the big chair, I DO NOT understand why this person is still in that Office . And the latest deal , UNBELIEVABLE . I truly am in utter disbelief of mentality of this country . Even with a real President in office , it maybe to late for this Country , with the damage that has been Done ! Truly Sad .

Bronxite, he was referring to the multiple laws that this administration has broken. Bill Clinton was impeached for a relatively minor offense compared with the long list of serious crimes committed by this administration. The federal government is supposed to work for We the People, not the other way around. When they become a detriment to the nation, we have a duty to remove them per the Constitution of the United States. That, Sir, is how democracy works or in our case a Democratic Republic.

Why are you changing the subject? And defending that pompous JA? If you had even an iota of intelligence training, you would be cringing at how he is dismissive of the Soviet Threat, and everything else he's done that has damaged this country. You try to justify his actions by dragging out past presidents mistakes. This is the present, and he is in charge. This Iran deal is probably the most idiotic thing any president has ever done.

Look up DAMO-SWN. How did we go from treaty with Iran to Soviet Threat? I guess your talking about Russia. The Soviet Union no longer exists. I would agree that they are a far bigger threat than ISIS. I just wish that when President Bush look into Putin's eyes and saw his soul (evil) he had done something about it. I was talking about CI, but yes I did finish first in my intel class taught by DIA. So if you were with NIS in 1966 who is Bill Abbot, or Patrick Molinari. How come if you and Sgt and others are vets, I am the only one who can provide specifics about when and where they served?

Submitted by Bronxite (not verified) : Jul 21, 2015 3:29pm

Russia is NOW. You keep yammering on about Bush looking into Putin's eyes. Russia was not a threat then. It is now. China is massively building up its war machine and Obama continues to antagonize them. I grew up in a country that was a the strongest, safest country in the world. It now wouldn't make the top 5. There was a universal dislike for Bush, but Obama is despised and since he's been in office, he's brought us more disrespect and shame than ever.

Google:
July 21: "Kerry says Iran vow to defy US is 'very disturbing'". (How bad does that make Obama and his sycophant look with their *deal*?)

July 10: "Kerry doesn't view Russia as existential threat: State Department"- The military's leading two generals disagree with him.

June 16: "Putin says Russia beffing up nuclear arsenal"

>>How come you (Bronxite) are the only one who can provide specifics about when and where they served?

I posted here in the past as 96B. I wanted to see if anything you said was true. I am not convinced. If I had given as much information as you(real or not) about the job I had and brass found out, there'd be suits at my door. You should be aware that foreign governments monitor every thing military, past or present, no matter how trivial it sounds. While you posted nothing significant, foreign powers take any little bit they can. NK would detain you based on what you wrote here. And they wouldn't care if it was true or not.

PS, I never said I was NIS.

So what is your proposal in regards to China. If Tricky Dick had not recognized Commie China, and American Businessmen had not shipped our jobs off to Commie China, we probably would not be confronting the problems we have with them today. I am sure NK would detain me, but I have not intention of visiting, NK, or any country in the Middle East (e.g., Iran, Iraq) Usually the people who imply that "If I told you what I do i'd have to kill you" are full of shit.

Submitted by Broxnite (not verified) : Jul 21, 2015 6:25pm

What Nixon did in regards to China was the right thing to do, and had NOTHING to do with today. The buffoon in charge is 100% responsible. The Cold War was on, and it was good to have China on our side.

Jobs go to China because people in this country don't care enough to pay a little more for goods made here, and unions have have made the cost of manufacturing skyrocket. When Nixon was in office, there weren't any rice burners on the road, and we didn't import billions in goods.

In almost every comment of yours, you blame Bush, Cheney, and now Nixon. When anyone dares to criticize Obama, you accuse them of racism. You don't want to debate, you want to spew liberal BS here.
I'm not buying it.

Bronxite,

An employee of DOD is not a veteran of the US Armed Forces.

Requirements to be a member of the American Legion are to have served in Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, or Coast Guard during one of the following periods:

*AUGUST 2, 1990 TO TODAY (PERSIAN GULF/ WAR ON TERRORISM)
DECEMBER 20, 1989 TO JANUARY 31, 1990 (OPERATION JUST CAUSE - PANAMA)
AUGUST 24, 1982 TO JULY 31, 1984 (LEBANON/GRENADA)
FEBRUARY 28, 1961 TO MAY 7, 1975 (VIETNAM)
JUNE 25, 1950 TO JANUARY 31, 1955 (KOREA)
DECEMBER 7, 1941 TO DECEMBER 31, 1946 (WORLD WAR II)
APRIL 6, 1917 TO NOVEMBER 11, 1918 (WORLD WAR I)
Even some former members of the Armed Forces are not eligible to be members.

Answer this: Are you a member of the American Legion, and what proof did you give of your service, what branch were you in?

You come on this forum and insult veterans who served their country and you insult them. You have told veterans to "join ISIS", you have called anyone who thinks Obama isn't doing his job a "racist", and now you're trying to pass yourself off as a hero?

You clearly do not understand that anyone who has been in the military can spot a fake. You are not the only one here.

Upon graduation, from Yeoman school, I was assigned to the Military Sea Transportation, Far East Area, North Pier, Yokohama, Japan. I lived in Kishine Barracks. My last year I was assigned to Naval Counterintelligence Service in the Washington, D.C. area. I lived in Quarters K across from Arlington National Cemetery. Upon discharge I took a job with the Naval Counterintelligence Service, thus beginning my 34 years with various DoD Agencies. And you?

On Feb 7 you said that you worked for DOD. You said nothing about being a veteran. You bashed many veterans by telling them to join ISIS. You called everyone who didn't like Obama a racist.

If you were a vet, you would have said so when the topic first came up. No, I don't believe you, and that's not the only reason. Your language, how you interact with veterans on this forum.

Veterans know when someone is lying about being a veteran. It's something you can't fake. No veteran would tell another to "go join ISIS". I'll give you credit though, when you lie, it's a doozy.

For any of you wishing to believe the “only other option is war” lie, ask yourselves: 1) Who is the President? 2) Has this president been calling for war with Iran? 3) Which Senator or Congressperson of Either Party has been calling for War with Iran? The answer is that Nobody has been calling for war with Iran and This president won’t even go to war with Isis . . . so tell me, How is it that “War is the only other option”? It is and was not.

This so called deal had better be turned down by both house's, there's no way in
hell that we should trust a camel jockey with the means to destroy the whole damn
world. We have to hold on till after the election & pray to god that we get someone
elected that actually wants our country headed back in the right direction instead
of the path that this moron in the white house has been taken us on.

Mike: If the Bush Administration trusted the insane leader of North Korea not to destroy the world with his nukes, I think we can trust a camel jockey.

Reb 1: Assuming your right, the question still remains: What did President Bush do about it? Going back in history, do you remember who was president when his administration sold arms to Iran? Check it out!

I think all 6 nations should have a separate meeting from Iran. They should all go over all of the term and conditions of what was so called agreed on. Not until all 6 nations can agree on all items first. No reservations cold hard rules and nothing less. Or it will come back and bite us all........

Does anyone truly believe that we have enough information, as to what is really going on, to answer this question. Those talking heads, on the news, speculate so much that our confusion only grows. We think we are informed, but are we? They are paid to entertain us not inform us, so what do we really know?

I have complete trust in our administration. They are doing their very best to keep our country safe. They are a lot more educated on this than I, a retired vet. I never second guess leaders who are well informed and I never use personal biases to cloud my judgement. thank you

The deal is what we can do today. The truth that all of the detractors are ignoring is that Iran already has an active Nuclear program. Without this agreement they could have a functioning bomb within the next year. This at the very least slows them down. With the time we have gained and continued diplomacy Iran may become more willing to do more.

I admire and respect Israel's military and their leadership. Since World War II, we have given them Billons of dollars. Let's them earn it now, by taking care of all military actions in the Middle East on our behalf. In other words, lets out source this fighting to them as they are Damn good at it. Obama has ruined this country, God help us if Hillary is elected President.

what would do. This may be the best deal we could get at this time.

Submitted by richard VN vet (not verified) : Jul 17, 2015 6:20pm

This was not a good deal,it was a give into Iran.Then they all laughed about it.Specially their leader when he said "they had won without compromising anything."
Then we're told it was the best we can get? But we can't ask them to release the Americans they're holding because then we would have to give them more?,someone else
is dealing with that,and they're making progress,,.I don't know,how do you even try
to negotiate with someone that says they want to kill us.? I know what Teddy Roosevelt would do.He would tell them, " release the Americans first or we'll kick your a-- ." But we have to be nice and wait for them kick our a_ _ first. Heck of deal!!

Anonhymous: I agree that part of the deal should have been the release of any Americans held by Iran. I also wonder why any sane American would visit Iran.

Med retired Mustang O-4 in 73. This or any agreement with this terrorist group is stupid to ever believe they will change. You can see that they have never complied with ANY agree-ments made with the USA. I do not want to see a nuclear disaster anywhere in the world but not STOPPING all nuclear action in Iran will
allow a nuclear world war to happen. Nuff said.

I wish we could disagree without being disagreeable, but when I read things like "..serious crimes committed by his administration", "elected through voter fraud"
"Our President hates our country," or "He is pure evil" I can't let it go without
comment.
