In all likelihood, this "agreement" with Iran is not as Pubs claim. Even if President Obama himself developed "Neutralizer" technology that instantly renders nuclear weapons absolutely useless wherever they are on this planet, with just the push of a button, all developed in the White House during his "spare time", Republicans would STILL find something to complain about.

What President Obama's time in office has proven, is that he is always right and Republicans are always wrong. So it is true too when talking here about US-Iran.
Lord Haw-Haw strikes again.

1st, 2nd and 3rd - until that regime no longer exists. Putin's murderous rampage across Ukraine and threats against the Baltic states, iran's conquests of lebanon, iraq, syria and yemen, are not accidents.

We have a weak, indecisive, amateurish and incompetent president whose word means absolutely nothing. Tyrants are emboldened by such weakness, who will continue to push until kicked in the face. I am quite concerned how much more damage these 2 cancers will cause in the next 2 years before this atrocity is out of office and replaced with an adult.

The United States has interests in the Middle East.

1. Its interest comprise of oil (You drive a car that needs oil)

2. National Security Concerns: Islamic militants who want to harm Americans - Regardless of some historical fact the U.S might of done wrong 43793 years ago.

3. Stability: U.S wants to remain a power in this world. A disrupted ME will lessen the power of the U.S.

Iran

1) Sponsor of terrorism: Enough said

2) Nuclear ambitions: Violation of agreements, Iranian hegemony that will create a nuclear arms race.

3) Continual conflict of Sunni's which will lead to the slaughter of more civilians and creation of refugees.

4) If becomes a nuclear power, Russia and China gain a upper hand, as well as Iran themselves who could nationalize oil.

5) Iran's genocidal threat to eradicate Israel: A UN Charter II violation as well as Israeli response to defend themselves.

So instead of judging the morality of Israel and your own country from your comfortable estate, hopefully you have the juice to back up such a claim. Your buddies in your fan club have failed to respond.

- Prove that U.S and Israel are 'demonic savages' compared to Iran..
Iran never said they'd eradicate Israel. Just because someone said and you fell for it. "Israels ruling regime will end" is what was said.
You miss the part about Iran not attacking other countries in centuries?
You miss the part about US sanctions being responsible for the deaths of over 1/2 million children in Iraq during Bush 1?
You miss the part about Obamas drones killing thousands of innocent men, women, and children in Pakistan and Yemen?

In their annual End of Year poll, researchers for WIN and Gallup International surveyed more than 66,000 people across 65 nations and found that 24 percent of all respondents answered that the United States “is the greatest threat to peace in the world today.†Pakistan and China fell significantly behind the United States on the poll, with 8 and 6 percent, respectively. Afghanistan, Iran, Israel and North Korea all tied for fourth place with 4 percent.

I believe in the sovereignty of all nations-The US, England and Israel have invaded and encroached land for decades and decades without any repercussions or remorse-Iran has not. It is that simple.

Is it necessary for the Israeli Government to act the way they do and to have a very strong/aggresive military and intelligence given its location?

Maybe or even probably, but that should not be our problem or issue. We have enough natural resources in this country to never use Middle Eastern oil again. We are so naturally isolated that in order to keep our country safe it is wiser to protect our land and borders instead of the borders and land of nations thousands and thousands of miles away.

I would be glad to see the day when we cease relations with the Middle East.

It is not even worth feeding the trolling trash making lunatic claims like "iran has not attacked another country in like 18 billion years" or similar nonsense, it degrades an already low quality thread.
Syria's army is its own. It is not an Iranian proxy (the relationship between Syria and Iran is one of allies, not proxies). In Iraq, Iran is involved, but the relationship is not proxy/patron. Hezbollah is an Iranian proxy, but you are not going to reach 200,000 dead with Hezbollah alone.

And think about the reverse. US proxies in the middle east have: 1) repressed peaceful protests with violence, including the killing of civilians (Egypt, Qatar, Bahrain), 2) used chemical weapons (Iraq, back when Saddam was a client of the Reagan White House), 3) established a long-term apartheid policy, enforced through occasional wars and collective punishment (Israel), 4) overthrew a democratically-supported government to institute a monarchy (Iran back in the 50s), 5) engaged in systematic torture (Afghanistan, Bahrain, Iraq, Israel, Lebanon, the Palestinian Authority, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Jordan), and 6) engaged in systematic slavery (United Arab Emirates, Qatar). And that is ignoring the rest of the world.
