There was something left for us to sanction on Iran?

Under Trump even the sanctions have sanctions.

They move around the office from time to time to convince Trump that it is alive.

Why? Because they are provoking us?

That picture of President Trump reminds me of this incident in relations between Venice and Turkey.

ā€¦ his skin was stuffed with straw and sewn, reinvested with his military insignia, and exhibited riding an ox in a mocking procession along the streets of Famagusta.

There are no good actors in this play. Iā€™m considering the likelihood that Iran already possesses a working nuclear weapon. Perhaps not miniaturized, but a simple gun-type bomb like the South Africans had during the apartheid era. True, inspectors fave been inspecting, but ā€¦

It is ok for N. Korea to have nukes and the missiles to deliver them but ooohhh not Iranā€¦
It is ok for France
Great Britain
Israel,
China
Rusdia
And the USA to have nukes
But not Iran
So trump backed out of the nuke control
agreement because Obama signed it.
Makes perfect sense.

He does look bad, doesnā€™t he. Iā€™ve always thought his eyes kind of look like a chameleonā€™sā€¦the bottom lids look like they could go up when he blinks.

I could never understand that, either. We are supposed to prevent a ā€œrogue nationā€ like Iran from developing nuclear weapons, yet we have already allowed an unstable nation like Pakistan to have them? I think the sanctions on North Korea are probably doing far worse damage than they have done to Iran, yet they arenā€™t backing down on their quest for nukes. And the hard-line assholes like Bolton and Pompeo and the rest are still stupid enough to believe that the sanctions are going to turn the people of Iran against their government when all it accomplishes is the evaporation of any warming in relations to the US from Iran due to the nuclear agreement negotiated by Obama and the other international powers, and also steels the people of Iran to support their government even more. They know who is responsible for this.

And besides, the US, Russia, China, Israel and the rest of these nuke-possessing states telling Iran they canā€™t have nuclear weapons is rather like some redneck ammosexual who owns 257 AR-15s telling his next-door neighbor that he isnā€™t allowed to buy a handgun to protect his home from burglars because it poses a threat to the ammosexual.

I see two angry men who donā€™t have a reason in the world to be angry. Government salary and health coverage, guaranteed tenure for four years, best address on the East Coast. And free construction paper and Sharpies.
