Perhaps Obama Should Write International Spy and Crime Novels – Iran Against Part II?
President Obama is known to be leaving a great legacy from his 8 years in the White House as the first black president, among his stated accomplishments are ObamaCare, The Iranian Nuclear Deal, and Economic Recovery after the 2008 financial crisis. Unfortunately, ObamaCare It turned out to be a disaster and the worst is yet to come as new taxes and rules go into effect on January 1, 2017 and will be felt after I leave office. Meanwhile, the Economic Recovery was the worst recovery we’ve ever had and it’s starting to fade, with equity prices at an all-time high and a long-term recession on the way as international markets stutter.
Regarding the legacy issues, I will not even go into the crisis of international terrorism, the Middle East conflicts, ISIS, or our own military readiness. But today, I’d like to talk about a side note to all of this, and the final big claim on Obama’s legacy; The Iranian nuclear deal.
You see, it turns out that our German partners in NATO have given us information that Iran is busy trying to buy centrifuge components, special pipes, etc. to increase its enrichment of uranium. No, this is not news, it is just typical Iranian behavior, I doubt it, well, read any of Bill Gertz’s books; yes, I have read them all and I am quite aware of the subject, which is why I was dumbfounded every time I read. an article or I heard from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, President Obama or the Obama administration press secretary about the so-called incredible and historic nuclear deal with Iran.
During this time, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey have been buying huge amounts of military weaponry to counter a possible future war with Iran; yes, Israel is also concerned about a nuclear Iran, right?
Yes, we have a nuclear agreement with Iran, which they do not intend to honor and in the true spirit of negotiation in that culture is that an agreement made, an agreement signed, is never anything more than a starting point, so Iran does not it has stopped its enrichment of military grade uranium, nor did it intend to do so. On August 3, 2016, CNN reported another nail in the coffin of this doomed deal; “America Sent $ 400 Million Cash Plane to Iran”, by Elise Labott, Nicole Gaouette and Kevin Liptak. The article said;
“The Obama administration secretly arranged a plane delivery of $ 400 million in cash on the same day that Iran released four American prisoners and formally implemented the nuclear deal, US officials confirmed Wednesday. Obama approved the transfer of $ 400 million. dollars, which it had announced in January as part of the Iran nuclear deal. The money was flown to Iran on wooden pallets stacked with Swiss francs, euros and other currencies as the first installment of a $ 1.7 billion deal that resolves claims in international court in The Hague over a failed arms deal under the Shah. “
Well, this story just keeps getting worse, doesn’t it? It’s like the Iran-Contra affair, Part II. One has to wonder if Obama in retirement will turn into some kind of Tom Clancy as a spy novelist; after all, you just have to write about your own abuse of power and international shenanigans to come up with decent plots and scenarios; He can even use himself as the evil villain if he wants to, and with his ego, I bet he does. Please listen to what I am saying.
