Add The New York Post on Google The Issue: The US-Iran deal for 60 days of talks about Iran’s nuclear program and terror funding. President Trump needs to understand that the peace deal is in disappearing ink from the Iranian side (“Signs of a bad deal,” Editorial, June 16).
While the world might see this agreement as the right thing to do, it is not.
The Iranians will sign anything, but in their eyes this is only a delay to achieving their real goal of destroying Israel.
They will continue their funding of proxies and Israel will continue to fight the proxies.
Basically, this war will continue in some form until the ayatollahs are overthrown.
He has never faced the kind of deceit of which Muslims are capable.
I’ve always supported most of Trump’s decision, but this Iran deal smells a little rotten.
He’s the dealmaker, but what is the deal this time?
Giving Iran another 60 days to figure out how to mislead us again?
After Operation Epic Fury, Trump demanded an unconditional surrender and Iran laughed at him.
If Trump had done a regime change right then and there, he wouldn’t be negotiating now.
As this 3 ¹/₂-month war comes to a conclusion, we must acknowledge the 13 military members who lost their lives.
The number of service members who died in one day at the Kabul airport because of Joe Biden’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan.
We are told that all will be well in the Strait of Hormuz because of the deal with Iran, but that hinges on a promise that the Iranians will not pursue nuclear capabilities.
This promise sounds like the one touted by Neville Chamberlain in 1938, when he naively claimed, “We shall have peace in our time.”
Trump is doing a yeoman’s work trying to make the world a safer place; however, he has gotten pushback from all quarters.
If only he had support on every level, nationally and internationally, he could have made a “deal of a lifetime,” but that wasn’t the case.
The stabilization of Lebanon, along with calm in Northern Israel, is a critical element of a comprehensive peace agreement.
Sadly, this component seems to be unresolved, leaving the Israelis and non-Hezbollah Lebanese anxious.
If rising gas prices and worries about the coming midterm elections dictated this end to war, perhaps it should not have happened in the first place.
Iran’s military is severely weakened and its economy is on the brink.
A few more months of sustained pressure could have produced a stronger agreement.
Public dissatisfaction with the high cost of gas and the lingering war may have influenced the deal.
If that is the case, Iran and Hezbollah will be the real winners.
It appears Trump has left our best ally out of consideration.
Iran still wants to wipe Israel off the face of the earth. Iran will surely keep funding Hezbollah, Hamas and the Houthis with the money we release to them.
Talks to discuss how the nuclear dust will be dealt with will come later.
Does anyone see Iran rushing to finish that discussion?
This deal will leave Israel still searching for security.
After the assassination attempt in Butler, Pa., Trump said “that God alone saved me that day for a righteous purpose.”
Someone should remind the president that the “righteous purpose” most certainly was not throwing Israel under the bus with the Iran deal.
