Trump will sanction Iran. This is huge.
These sanctions include anyone attempting to trade with Iran. HEAR that Europe?


WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump plans to follow through on his campaign threat to pull out of the landmark nuclear accord with Iran, according to two people familiar with his thinking, dealing a profound blow to U.S. allies and potentially deepening the president's isolation on the world stage.

Trump's decision means Iran's government must now decide whether to follow the U.S. and withdraw or try to salvage what's left of the deal. Iran has offered conflicting statements about what it may do — and the answer may depend on exactly how Trump exits the agreement.

The 2015 pact itself does not contain any provisions for leaving, but Trump was expected to re-impose most, if not all, of the sanctions on Iran that were eased under the deal. That would erase the economic benefits promised to Iran under the deal and be tantamount to the United States walking away.

It wasn't immediately clear which sanctions would be slapped back on Iran and how quickly. But grace periods of a few months to half a year are expected to be granted so that businesses and governments can wind down operations that would violate re-imposed U.S. sanctions, the individuals said.

Not surprisingly Schumer has criticized the move. Who is surprised? Leftist FNC commentator Marie Harf said this action could cause some State Department employees to leave. Damn, we are already seeing some positives if swamp dwellers might leave on their own.

Now watch the MSM go all in against the move. I see some short term pain with this decision as companies have to wind down Iranian investments. However, it is the best in the long term.

Hey, Obama, you can keep your legacy like we can keep our doctors.

Way to go President Trump. Although I would have liked him to call this Iran deal a treaty than send it to the Senate for a vote and let's see if this deal could have received 2/3 of the vote to pass.

I would have loved to see who voted which way.

They got battered like the loser in an MMA cage match. First Trump shitcans the Iran Nuke extortion deal. THEN all over the place Tea Party and True conservative PRO TRUMP candidates win the Primaries (except for Ohio) and to top it off Pompeo walks out of N. Korea with 3 Americans who were imprisoned for years.

Meantime they are still trying to figure out why a growing number of Judge and Legal people are making bad noises at Mueller and his nothingburger investigtion.

This think was misnamed from the start, it should always be known as the Iran Robbery cause that is what they (Kerry, Iran, Obama) did to us.

Euthanizing this Iran Agreement is far more important than huge;
it's potentially transformational, in a critical region of the world.
Further, it's a testament to the power of clear thinking w/a laser focus.
One hundred years ago Great Britain had a similar opportunity to transform
the ME and made a colossal hash of it; which still reverberates today.
Hopefully, a much wiser Trump will now seize the moment. Consider:
The Sunni Leaders of Saudi Arabia, Oman, the Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait,
Bahrain, Jordan and Iraq, immediately embraced Trump's decision.
These States have a comfort level w/Israel; so a coalition basis exists.
* What does it mean for Iran and its Muslim fanatics?
Serious danger for them, as we have the ballistic missiles while they have
the bull horns. Few grasp that the Iran Revolution in '79 was not a popular
uprising against the Phalevi Monarchy, rather it meant the rise of the Mullahs!
* What does it mean for Turkey and a political hustler such as Erdogan?
It is a veiled warning to the religious agitators, that we support a stable
and self-sufficient ME; able to stand on their own two feet in the world.
* What does this mean for China and the Korea's? Time to reflect long and hard!
* How about Britain, France and Germany?
For the former, time to toss PM Mizz May, a total loser; for the latter,
the same remedy for PM Lard Butt. As for France, who ruled the Levant
(Lebanon and Syria) for more than a century; here is an opportunity for
them to re-establish their role as wise counselor to the Arab.
* What about Donald Trump?
From this time forward his slogan should be, "Let them hate, as long as they fear."

Obama did it first and the sanctions worked to force Iran to the negotiating table.  Why would Iran go back to the table now, with the US being the only nation to impose sanctions?  Unilateral sanctions don't work.
