Abide by the terms of the multinational agreement that brought their nuclear weapon program to a stop and was working brilliantly.

Again wrong. It wasn't working brilliantly, They were and are still working on missiles to deliver a bomb and they were still enriching uranium and building more efficient centrifuges. It was all just a pause so the wimp obama and the traitor Kerry could delay them until they were gone. There never was a stop or a permanent pause in their enriching uranium. It was all a matter of time.

And the rest of your comment was also wrong.

That was one of the reasons President Trump dismissed John Bolton -- while I don't disagree with Bolton from the perspective of his perception of constituted threats to the U.S., if he'd had his way a lot more brave young Americans would be in harm's way in situations Trump might well eliminate with considerably less sacrifice of blood and treasure.

Even now, Bolton is criticizing the president for not committing our military forces on a significantly larger scale.

As the so-called "Arab Spring" demonstrated in graphic detail, the leaders of countries over there whose populations became more secular during the 20th Century have a vested interest in keeping out the fanatics and curbing those countries like Iran that stir the cauldron of extremism and terror.

Arm their governments, perhaps send some special forces personnel over to train their soldiers where it would help, furnish them with intelligence... Then let them police their own backyards.

Our only unconditional friend and ally in the Middle East is Israel, trusting any of the Muslim countries is a bit "iffy," due to the Qoran's attitude toward agreements made/treaties signed with "infidels."

The deal with Iran was only temporary. And what did it get us? The only answer is to remove the Ayatollah, or help those who will.

[quote=Coos Bay Tom]The Iran crisis is a direct result of trump pulling out of the nuclear agreement with Iran. Any body who thinks other wise is a fool. --trump pulls out- Iran tries to wait him out then says-F-U. What could be expected? Stupidity caused this crisis.[/quo

Tom, do you mean the agreement that Iran was violating left and right?
You mean the agreement that said US inspectors could not set foot in Iran, and the international inspectors had to give 30 days notice and were only allowed to inspect certain sites?
The agreement which exempted Iran's military bases from inspection?
The agreement which left Iran with more than enough centrifuges to continue weapons research?
The agreement in which Iran was given 150 billion dollars which they will doubtless spend on gay outreach programs and shelters for abused women?
