Bei all den dramatischen Schnörtern und Drohungen von militärischen Aktionen beobachten wir einen bizarren Zyklus der Zerstörung und Erholung. Trump riss eine funktionale, wenn auch unvollständige Vereinbarung auf, die das nukleare Programm des Iran in Schach hatte. Der Iran reagierte, indem er auf Waffenfähigkeiten beschleunigte. Jetzt muss Trump einen neuen Deal aushandeln, um genau die Krise zu lösen, die seine Handlungen zur Schaffung geholfen haben.

Labott highlights the irony of Trump creating an Iran deal suspiciously similar to Obama’s which he tore up. But more ironic is the fact that Trump could succeed because he has what Obama lacked: credibility on military action, a willingness to walk away, and immunity from accusations of appeasement.
>In this bizarro world of international relations, Trump’s unorthodox approach could transform a diplomatic crisis largely of his own making into a personal triumph.
The entire premise of this article hinges on the false claim that the deal, as it was agreed to, was actually being upheld by Iran. The United States, the EU, the CIA, the UN, every single watchdog org has shown that Iran was not abiding by the nuclear deal that they signed and were speeding towards a nuclear weapon.
So what were the options? Allow Iran to continue to fund its terroir proxies with billions of dollars of unsanctioned oil sales, all while they were still building a nuclear weapon? Or reimpose sanctions on Iran while they were still building a nuclear weapons?
If we can get a version of the Obama era nuclear deal with **guaranteed compliance** that would be a huge win for the US, and the entire world.
