This is the real tragedy of America's 'Internet freedom agenda': It's going to be the dissidents in China and Iran who will pay for the hypocrisy that drove it from the very beginning.
Donald Trump has the ability to renegotiate the Iran nuclear deal as he says, but if he were to do so, this would be regarded in Tehran as an abrogation of the deal. This would allow the Iranian side of the deal to in effect withdraw because they could say that the United States has not held up its end of the bargain, and therefore we're going to restart our nuclear program.
The Obama administration rarely demonstrated the ability to shift gears and change policy in its first year. Even in the face of historic events such as the continuing demonstrations against Iran's regime, it stuck devotedly to prior plans.
It is important that democracy in Lebanon is protected and that Hezbollah will not be supported by outside forces like Syria and Iran.
Iran is a major threat to the well-being of Europe and America just as much as it is for the state of Israel.
Israel will not tolerate a situation in which Iran has effective control of non-conventional weapons that can be used directly against the state of Israel.
I think the attempt to draw a comparison between Iran and Syria is false, misleading and dangerous.
When the President of Iran talks about removing Israel from the face of the Earth and is building nuclear bombs with a range of 3000km, you have to be worried.
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the President of Iran ... in one shot on his website he appears to be dressed only in flowers. Oh - here's the page, you'll see what I mean.
There are many good reasons to fear a nuclear Iran, but also many good reasons to fear the consequences of launching a preventive military strike against Iran. If the president, whoever it is, wants to do the latter, he or she should - indeed, under the Constitution, must - go to Congress.
Iran is taking over Iraq.
Iran should write us a letter of thank you for taking Mosul.
[Barack Obama] gives away $400 million in cash, but it turns out to $1.7 billion in cash [for Iran].
Look at what's happening, how Iran is taunting us. Look at what's going on, look at the world.
Another mess I inherited, and we have imposed new sanctions on the nation of Iran who has totally taken advantage of our previous administration, and they're the world's top sponsor of terrorism, and we're not going to stop until that problem is properly solved, and it's not properly solved now.
I don't have to tell you what I'm going to do in North Korea. And I don't have to tell you what I'm going to do with Iran. You know why? Because they shouldn't know.
If Iran was a stock, you folks should go out and buy it right now.
If Iran was a stock, you folks should go out and buy it right now because you'll quadruple - this, what's happening in Iran, is a disgrace, and it's going to lead to destruction in large portions of the world.
[Iran agreement] is one of the worst agreements I've ever seen drawn by anybody.
I can say this: They [Iran] have total disregard for our country. They are the number one terrorist state, they are sending money all over the place, and weapons, and you can't do that.
We gave [Iran] $1.7 billion in cash, which is unheard of, and we put the money up and we have really nothing to show for it.
I would have doubled up and tripled up the sanctions [on Iran] and made a good deal.
The deal with Iran is so stupid, it's so insanely stupid, that when people vote for me, they know I don't make deals like that. I get our prisoners back, I don't have 24 day inspection periods, I don't have self-inspection where they inspect themselves, I don't give them $150 billion that they can use for terrorism all over the world.
I said in 2004,in fact a group was sent to me from the White House to try talk to me, because I was getting a lot of publicity.I said it in 2004, you're going to destabilize the Middle East, Iran is going to take over Iraq... and somebody else is going to help and that turned out to be ISIS. It's an exact.
America is so outplayed by Putin and Assad, and by the way - and by Iran. Nobody can believe how stupid our leadership is.
