Biden's About to Give Iran the Bomb and Also Give All of Iran's Terrorists Carte Blanche To Travel The World Free of Restriction

"This isn't Obama's Iran deal," says Gabriel Noronha's headline. "It's much worse."

Noronha worked as Special Advisor for Iran in the U.S. Department of State Department from 2019-2020 and worked n the U.S. Senate from 2015-2019.

Anyone seeking to gauge the imminent outcome of the international talks over Iran's nuclear program being held in Vienna should take a look at reports from late January that three top U.S. diplomats had quit--largely in protest over the direction set by U.S. Special Envoy for Iran Robert Malley, who serves as the U.S. government's chief negotiator.

Having served for two years in former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's Iran Action Group, I knew that this development was tantamount to a public cry for an intervention. Such resignations--not of conservative dissenters, but of career staff and President Joe Biden's own political appointees--should have been cause for Biden or Secretary Antony Blinken to recall Malley and investigate. Their failure to do so is a sign either of a troubling lack of attention to the talks, or else the possibility that Malley--who served in the same capacity under President Barack Obama when the first Iran deal, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), was originally negotiated and signed--has been given a free hand to negotiate whatever he wants, as long as he gets Iran to sign.

Evidence for the latter view can be gleaned from the fact that Blinken has reneged on his pledge that his Iran negotiating team would have "a diversity of views." Instead, he has let Malley continue to concede issue after issue in Vienna. Multiple career officials view these capitulations as so detrimental to U.S. national security that they contacted me requesting that I rapidly share details of these concessions with Congress and the public in an effort to stop them.

Reports out of Vienna indicate that a deal could occur within the next few days. While some issues are still being ironed out--such as whether the United States will grant Russia immunity from any economic sanctions relating to Iran, as Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has publicly demanded--the details that follow have been conveyed to me as finalized. My subsequent discussions with foreign diplomats--including those directly involved and those outside but close to the negotiations--confirmed their claims. Ambassador Mikhail Ulyanov, who led negotiations on behalf of Russia, has crowed that "Iran got much more than it could expect. Much more," and bragged about how Russia teamed up with China and Iran to get dozens of wins over the United States and European negotiating positions.

It's terrific when the Russians are openly bragging that they absolutely rolled your top "negotiator," and he doesn't seem to mind having been rolled.

The list of concessions that follows is long, detailed, disturbing, but also somewhat technical. But this much is clear to me: The deal being negotiated in Vienna is dangerous to U.S. national security, to the stability of the Middle East, and to the Iranian people who suffer most under that brutal regime. The lack of evidence to justify a removal of U.S. sanctions is illegal, and the deal that will be foisted upon the world without the support of Congress will be illegitimate. This deal will not serve U.S. interests in either the short or long term.

With Robert Malley in the lead, the United States has promised to lift sanctions on some of the regime's worst terrorists and torturers, on leading officials who have developed Iran's WMD infrastructure, and has agreed to lift sanctions on the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) itself. In exchange, Iran will receive fewer limitations than those imposed under the JCPOA, and the restrictions on its nuclear program will expire six years sooner than under the terms of the old deal. And that's just the beginning.

Thanks, NeverTrump! So thankful that you put The Adults Back in Charge!

And remember, Biden is pushing for this deal to be inked to get Iran's oil on the market just to help him out of a domestic jam -- regarding high gas prices -- of his own making.

So we're giving Iran the nuclear bomb to help Biden overcome the blowback of embracing AOC's Green New Deal.

The Biden administration is preparing to end sanctions under Executive Order (E.O.) 13876, known as the Supreme Leader's Office E.O., as soon as the deal is finalized. This would lift sanctions on nearly all of the 112 people and entities sanctioned under that authority, even if they were sanctioned under other legal authorities as well. This move is significant because the United States has used this authority to sanction some of the most evil people you can possibly imagine. Malley and his Russian go-betweens in Vienna have agreed that these people should now be free to roam around the world despite their murderous pasts, unshackled from any restraints on their financing, and plotting new terror attacks.

If that sounds like an exaggeration, believe me: It isn't. Let's start with the terrorists, like Mohsen Rezaei, who was involved in the AMIA bombing in Argentina in 1994 that killed 85 people when he was commander-in-chief of the IRGC. Argentine authorities issued international warrants for his arrest, and he remains on Interpol's Red Notice. Equally culpable in the AMIA bombing is Ali Akbar Velayati, who today serves as a senior adviser to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. He was charged as being one of the "ideological masterminds" behind the attack. He also committed acts of terror in Syria, where he helped the Iranian regime extend credit lines to the brutal Assad regime. Under the nuclear impending deal, both Rezaei and Velayati would be removed from U.S. sanctions lists.

I'll stop excerpting it there. Read the whole thing.

My God.

My God.

We seem to be paying an incredibly high price for the Corrupt Senile R@pist's "Nice Tweets," don't we?

Meanwhile: New York City artists got War Fever, because it's #TrendingOnTwitter.

Wonder how many have signed up to serve in the International Brigade. I bet lots and lots, huh? I bet they're just waiting for their vaccinations before jumping on a plane.
