[Yesterday], the leader of Iran’s evil regime, Hassan Rouhani, declared, “today major world powers recognized Iran’s nuclear program. Our dreams have come true.”

And indeed, this nuclear deal that Obama essentially cut with Iran months ago, recognizes much more than just their nuclear program.

Today, you will hear many references to Neville Chamberlain, but the truth is that Chamberlain merely appeased the enemy of his country; he didn’t create an alliance with Germany.

Moreover, he was negotiating from a position of weakness, whereas America had Iran on the ropes from years of sanctions. Obama is handing them their nuclear program and regional hegemony on a silver platter as a reward for killing and maiming thousands of U.S. troops in Iraq over the past decade. John Kerry even apologized for the years that sanctions were in place.

Here are the important details and outcomes of this alliance Obama has forged with Iran:

1) Keep the Centrifuges: Iran can keep more than 5,000 centrifuges with one-third of them continuing to spin in perpetuity. For context, Pakistan created a bomb with just 3,000 centrifuges. In return for them keeping most of their infrastructure, they are entitled to receive $140 billion in sanctions relief.

2) Phony Inspections: Iran will have the discretion to block international inspectors from military installations and will be given 14 days’ notice for any request to visit any site. But there are several layers of bureaucracy that will elongate any period of inspection beyond the 14 days, and that is assuming the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) will pursue an inspections regime in any meaningful way. Iran’s objections to inspections at military sites can be overturned by an international commission, something that will never occur. Also, the inspectors can only come from countries with diplomatic relations with Iran. Hence, no American inspectors.

3) Lifting of Weapons Embargo: One of the latest additions to the alliance deal was a lifting of the embargo on the sale of weapons to Iran. The embargo will officially be lifted in 5 years, but as we’ve seen from the past few years of negotiations, the embargo has already been de facto lifted because nobody will enforce any violations.

4) If you like you’re delivery system…: The embargo on Iran’s ICBM program will be lifted after 8 years (again, lack of enforcement will likely occur earlier). Coupled with the nuclear materials they will be allowed to keep and the operation of advanced centrifuges, they could have a delivery system in place by the time they break out with a nuclear weapon.

5) Keep Your Infrastructure: The heavy water reactor in Arak and the underground nuclear facility in Fordo will be kept open, in direct contravention to Obama’s own red lines.

6) Arms Trades Already Underway: As if on cue, the Russians are already agreeing to sell Iran s-300 anti-missile rocket systems in exchange for 500,000 barrels of oil. This makes it clear they will never agree to reinstate sanctions on Iran if they cheat on the agreement.

7) Covert Program Untouched: The P5+1 nations already dropped demands that Iran disclose its past research. The publicly-discovered nuclear sites are irrelevant because Iran has already hid the ball.

8) Sanctions Already Laughed Off: Iran knows they don’t have to agree to any significant concession because the sanctions have already been ignored across the board by the West. Iran is already boasting about record oil exports.

9) All Sanctions Fall Together: Needless to say, Iran is continuing to build their ballistic missile program and expand their terrorism and regional hegemony. None of this was even a part of the negotiations from day one. For months, the Obama administration swore that the sanctions targeting Iran’s terror, human rights abuses, and its ballistic missile program would remain in place. But last month, the AP reported that all of the sanctions will collapse once the nuclear sanctions are removed.

10) Paying Iran to Make a Bomb: If you thought this “deal” was a joke, you are not missing anything. The AP has reported that Obama has agreed to help Iran with technical assistance to develop their nuclear program…all for domestic purposes of course. It appears that this will be part of the final deal.

11) Killing U.S. Soldiers Pays Off: Sanctions were lifted on critical parts of Iran’s military, including restrictions on the Quds Force commander Qasem Soleimani. This man is responsible for the deaths of numerous U.S. soldiers in Iran.

12) Continue to Illegally Torture American Prisoners: While Soleimani is being freed to travel abroad, the U.S. hostages in Iran will remain in prison.

Where Things Stand

Thanks to the unconstitutional Corker-Cardin bill, the Senate has ceded its power to ratify a treaty, which would have required two-thirds of the Senate to affirmatively approve of the deal in order for the sanctions to be lifted. Now, the sanctions will automatically be lifted unless Congress musters two-thirds in opposition to the deal in both bodies of Congress – 67 votes in the Senate and 290 in the House. Given the radical nature of the modern-day Democrat Party, there is no way Republicans will come close to mustering the votes. Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) has already expressed support for Obama’s Iranian alliance.

Rather than play defense, it’s time for conservatives to go on offense and force leadership to jettison their liberal agenda and use every must-pass bill to block the Iran deal. Next week, Congress plans to approve the annual defense bill. This is a perfect vehicle for blocking a deal with Iran. They must also use the upcoming budget bill as well to block any sanctions relief. A steady and relentless stream of legislative pressure on Democrats is the only way they will feel the heat on the issue.

Congress can’t afford to wait until September to block the lifting of sanctions. This deal was not written with the “Corker-Cardin review process” in mind. The UN Security Council can approve the lifting of sanctions within a few weeks while members of Congress are having fun in the sun. Shouldn’t Republicans assert the prerogative to keeping members in session until this deal is blocked?

Some things are worth fighting for, and if Republicans can’t muster the courage to wield the power of the purse over the worst international capitulation of our generation, there is no purpose to their existence. (“Iran Deal Endangers the US”, originally posted HERE)
