发帖数: 29846 | 1 Ted Cruz Responds to Iran Deal, Says It’s Very, VERY Bad for US and Israel

Presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz released a statement sharing his
thoughts on the recent Iran deal, and according to him — and anyone else
who has an IQ higher than a dead rat — it’s bad news for us and Israel.
Here’s what he had to say.
“Today, the international community led by the United States has agreed
to not only legitimize and perpetuate the Iranian nuclear program, but also
to further arm and enrich the brutal theocratic regime that has oppressed
the Iranian people for more than thirty years – a regime that is wrongfully
holding United States citizens captive, that is sponsoring radical Islamic
terrorism across the globe, and that regularly promotes the destruction of
both Israel and America throughout its streets.
“Despite these facts, it seems President Obama would concede almost
anything to get any deal – even a terrible deal – from the Islamic
Republic of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Under the terms of this
deal, Iran will retain all of its centrifuges, one-third of which will
continue to spin. Rather than the most intrusive inspections regime in
history that we were promised, IAEA inspectors must petition the mullahs to
visit sensitive sites, and wait for two weeks for their permission. In a
final, shocking concession, the United States will support lifting of the
United Nations arms embargos that restrict the Iranian ballistic missile
program and arms trafficking. And in return, billions of dollars of economic
relief will flow to Tehran.
“Yet, in his remarks this morning, the President glossed over the truth
about Iran’s world-leading state-sponsorship of terrorism that is
violently destabilizing the region, and would grow more deadly should the
Iranians get a nuclear bomb. He failed to mention American citizens, Saeed
Abedini, Amir Hekmati and Jason Rezaian, who continue to languish in Iranian
prisons or Robert Levinson, who is still unaccounted for. For them, today
is no ‘opportunity to move in a new direction’ as the President claimed.
We owe it to our fellow Americans to elevate, not ignore, their plight, to
demand their swift and unconditional release by the implacably hostile
regime that holds them.
“Even by the low standards of the Joint Plan of Action, this is a
staggeringly bad deal. It is a fundamental betrayal of the security of the
United States and of our closest allies, first and foremost Israel.
“But thankfully, it is not a done deal. We still have an opportunity to
tell the truth about what Prime Minister Netanyahu called today a ‘bad
mistake of historic proportion.’
“Congress will have 60 days to review it, and the American people will
have 60 days to tell their elected representatives just what they think of
it. I urge all my fellow citizens to speak out and let their elected leaders
know that even if President Obama won’t see it, we know the leaders of the
Islamic Republic who lead crowds in chants of ‘Death to America’ and ‘
Death to Israel’ are not our partners in peace, and must not be put on the
path to a nuclear bomb.”
Maybe this Ted Cruz guy is just a crazy, extremist right winger who hates
Muslims or something.
I mean, come on, what could possibly go wrong with allowing a country that’
s sponsored terrorist activity to have a nuclear program?
You know…when it’s said sort of like that, I guess this really is a pretty
bad idea.
Hope you could sense the sarcasm, as it was practically dripping off of
every word.
Allowing Iran to have a nuclear program is like leaving your delinquent
teenage son, with a criminal record, home alone with $5,000 and two kegs of
beer and taking him at his word he won’t throw a party and trash the house.
Then again, stupid is as stupid does, and Obama certainly proves that’s
true, doesn’t he? | s*x
