SWEET JESUS YOU ARE A HUGE ASSHAT
"In 1985, while Iran and Iraq were at war, Iran made a secret request to buy weapons from the United States. McFarlane sought Reagan's approval, in spite of the embargo against selling arms to Iran. McFarlane explained that the sale of arms would not only improve U.S. relations with Iran, but might in turn lead to improved relations with Lebanon, increasing U.S. influence in the troubled Middle East. Reagan was driven by a different obsession. He had become frustrated at his inability to secure the release of the seven American hostages being held by Iranian terrorists in Lebanon. As president, Reagan felt that "he had the duty to bring those Americans home," and he convinced himself that he was not negotiating with terrorists. While shipping arms to Iran violated the embargo, dealing with terrorists violated Reagan's campaign promise never to do so. Reagan had always been admired for his honesty.

The arms-for-hostages proposal divided the administration. Longtime policy adversaries Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger and Secretary of State George Shultz opposed the deal, but Reagan, McFarlane and CIA director William Casey supported it. With the backing of the president, the plan progressed. By the time the sales were discovered, more than 1,500 missiles had been shipped to Iran. Three hostages had been released, only to be replaced with three more, in what Secretary of State George Shultz called "a hostage bazaar."

Oye vey. Your ignorance is painful.
"Three hostages had been released, only to be replaced with three more, in what Secretary of State George Shultz called "a hostage bazaar."(see below)

What the outcomes of the agreement now will be seen down the road. Do we have hostages to negotiate for in Iran? no. Does it diplomatically halt the Iranian nuke program? Seems to. We'll see.

We aren't giving them weapons...and WE aren't doing anything it's bigger than us.

The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA; Persian: ?????? ???? ????? ??????) is a nuclear agreement signed in Vienna on 14 July 2015 between Iran, the P5+1 (the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council—United States, United Kingdom, Russia, China, France, —plus Germany), and the European Union.

Your under-educated/ignorant/blindly accepting of Fox News assessment of the entire situation is awful.

The deal keeps Iran in check. Plain and simple. You have NO CLUE about what you think you know. OF COURSE THE ISRAELI'S SAY IT'S F'd UP!

When was the last time they agreed to Nuclear inspections? HAHA...keep drinking the red kool-aid.

Oh- and PS:

Where is a BETTER alternative plan?

Like every issue (jobs bills, immigration, healthcare...etc) - the right bitches and moans about Obama's plans but never produces a better option.

The right is killing itself.

Just ignore jimmycrackcorn, he's probably just baiting...
