Iran: Will Netanyahu, Trump Slam Door On Obama's Bad Nuclear Deal? Investor's Business Daily, Apr 30, 2018
<snip>
Netanyahu's timing isn't accidental. In two weeks, President Trump and leaders of France, U.K. and Germany are set to decide what to do about the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, pushed by President Obama, which almost no one is happy with. Netanyahu is hoping his intelligence will sway the debate and force a unified crackdown on Iran.
"This is a terrible deal. It should never have been concluded, and in a few days time, President Trump will decide, will make his decision on what to do with the nuclear deal," Netanyahu said in his speech in Tel Aviv, made in his fluent English.
No surprise, Trump is pushing European allies to make substantive changes in the Iran nuclear deal, to toughen it up.
In particular, Trump is upset that some of the tougher provisions go away in time, that inspectors aren't allowed to inspect some military sites, and that other aspects of Iran's weapons and military, including ballistic missiles programs and its ongoing support of terrorism, are left out entirely from the deal.
Netanyahu has come under immediate criticism for his sensational Iran "dossier." No one doubts the veracity of the documents. But they note that most of the evidence details nuclear activities that took place years, even decades ago. The Iran nuclear deal, signed in 2015, doesn't cover those earlier activities.
