If Obama didn’t exist, Iran would have to invent him.
Recently Obama fought tooth and nail against further sanctions, his supporters accused opponents of his Iran deal of being traitors and he has responded to Iran’s attacks on shipping in the Persian Gulf, its invasion of Yemen through proxy Houthi terrorists and its undermining of the Iraqi military in favor of Shiite Jihadist militias with nothing.
So sure.
Obama: “We’ve been very clear [about] to the Iranian regime over the past six years is that we will continue to ratchet up the costs, not simply for their anti-Semitism, but also for whatever expansionist ambitions they may have.”
What are those costs again?
Obama now opposes sanctions. He keeps insisting that we can’t push back against Iran’s expansionism or they might stop negotiating to get nuclear weapons.
So what are the costs for Iranian expansionism (never mind their anti-Semitism, a trait they share with people in his government) again?
Nothing. Iran does what it wants. Obama gets out of the way.
