Obama
gave billions to the Iranian military so they can continue to kill Americans
through terror attacks and also to build nuclear weapons. Obama
really hates the USA!
Dangers Rise as America Retreats
Fifteen years after 9/11, the next president will face greater
risks and a weaker military to combat them.
. . . On Aug. 20, 2012,
Mr. Obama drew a red line making clear he would take military action if Syrian
President Bashar Assad used chemical weapons. A year later, Mr. Assad launched
a sarin-gas attack on his own people in the suburbs of Damascus. Mr. Obama did
nothing—a failure that destroyed America’s credibility and strengthened the
hand of our adversaries
.
We now know that the
president’s refusal to act came as the Iranians and the U.S. were engaged in
secret talks about Iran’s nuclear program. In his new book, “The Iran Wars,”
Wall Street Journal correspondent Jay Solomon writes that according to Iranian
sources, “Tehran made it clear to the American delegation that the nuclear
negotiations would be halted if the U.S. went ahead with its attack on Assad.”
The Iranians were now in the driver’s seat, not just regarding their own policy
in the Middle East, but in determining America’s.
President Obama and
Secretaries of State Hillary Clinton
and John Kerry
were so concerned with pleasing Iran’s ruling mullahs that they were willing to
overlook the American blood on Iranian hands and decades of Iran’s activities
as the world’s leading state sponsor of terror. In pursuit of the nuclear deal,
they made concession after dangerous concession.
Every promise made to the
American people about the Obama nuclear agreement has been broken. We were promised a
“world-class” verification process. Instead, the Iranians are allowed in key
instances to verify themselves.
We were promised the
agreement would “block every pathway” to an Iranian nuclear weapon. Instead,
the Obama-Clinton agreement virtually guarantees an Iranian nuclear weapon,
gives them access to the latest in centrifuge technology and will likely usher
in a nuclear arms race across the Middle East.
We were promised that
non-nuclear sanctions, including those that block Iran’s access to hard
currency and our financial systems, would remain in place. Instead, the Obama
administration has paid the mullahs at least $1.7 billion in cash, which
includes at least $1.3 billion in U.S. taxpayer money, the first
installment of which was ransom for the release of American hostages.
In case there is any doubt
that the regime will use these funds to support terror, Iran’s parliament
recently passed Article 22 of its 2016-2017 budget, mandating that all such
funds be transferred directly to the Iranian military. Fifteen years after
3,000 Americans were killed by Islamic terrorists, America’s commander in chief
has become the money launderer in chief for the world’s leading state sponsor
of terror. .
