Let's pretend that left4rds aren't fin ret4rded.

Too much of a stretch?

Yeah, I thought so.

Anyways, I will just leave this here for non-ret4rds to come look at, because I know that you two mental midgets won't be able to make sense of it:

• UN Security Council Resolution 2231, adopted on July 20, 2015, was an integral and legally binding part of the JCPOA

• Paragraph 3 of Annex B of UN Security Council Resolution 2231 called upon Iran not to engage in any activity related to ballistic missiles designed to be capable of delivering nuclear weapons, including launches using such technology.

• Throughout the term of the resolution, Iran conducted multiple tests of ballistic missiles and satellite launch vehicles. 

Trump could have chosen to abide by America's part of the bargain even though Iran had already ceased to do so themselves, like Dopey Joey did, but that would not have been smart.

If you agreed to sell your car, but the purchaser only gave you 10% of the money, would you still give them your car?

Is the issue of Iran having nuclear weapons and delivery systems more or less important than the sale of a used Prius?

 

For the tenth time: the fantasy of "Trump not ripping up the fabulous Obama-era JCPOA" was never an option, because the JCPOA was not in effect when Trump became president. He just took full stock the new reality and acted accordingly.

The JCPOA, which imposed restrictions on Iran’s civilian nuclear enrichment program in exchange for sanctions relief, was signed on July 14, 2015. It was agreed to by Iran and the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council -- China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States -- as well as Germany and the European Union.

The JCPOA blocked every possible pathway Iran could use to build a nuclear bomb while ensuring -- through a comprehensive, intrusive, and unprecedented verification and transparency regime -- that Iran’s nuclear program remains exclusively peaceful moving forward

Under the deal, Iran,  "significantly reduced its nuclear program and accepted strict monitoring and verification safeguards to ensure its program is solely for peaceful purposes,” / Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation.

In exchange, Iran received economic sanctions relief from nuclear-related sanctions" only after the International Atomic Energy Agency verified Tehran had completed certain requirements under the deal.

The deal went into effect on Jan. 16, 2016, after the IAEA verified that Iran had completed steps, including shipping 25,000 pounds of enriched uranium out of the country, dismantling and removing two-thirds of its centrifuges and allowing for more extensive international inspections of its nuclear facilities.

Some of the deal’s opponents faulted these so-called sunset provisions, saying they would only delay Iran building a bomb while sanctions relief would allow it to underwrite terrorism in the region,

Trump campaigned prior to his first election on pulling the U.S. out of the deal, and on May 8, 2018, he did just that, terminating U.S. participation in the JCPOA and reimposing economic sanctions on Iran.

Trump withdrew the U.S. from the deal after ignoring the advice of America’s allies, who had urged him to stay in the agreement and build upon it. The leaders of France, Germany and the U.K. noted their "regret and concern" at Trump's decision, calling on Iran to maintain its commitments under the deal.

After Qassemi Soleimani, the leader of Iran's elite Quds Force, was killed in a U.S.  airstrike in January 2020, the Iranian government announced it would no longer abide by any of the operational restraints on its nuclear program under the Iran nuclear deal.

As some provisions of the JCPOA were set to expire in October 2023, former President Joe Biden's administration imposed new sanctions on Iran’s ballistic missile and drone programs, according to the Council on Foreign Relations.

Biden sought to negotiate a return to the JCPOA. However, in the last few months of his term last year, a State Department spokesperson said they were "far away" from returning to negotiations with Iran.

 

It is to be hoped that Trump can negotiate (renew) something akin to the JCPOA - likely anything that is agreed upon will be measured against it (JCPOA) though.

I will grant you that what you quoted there looks like "facts", but it's actually just propaganda, AT BEST, and cover for Iran to cross the nuclear/ICBM finish line at worst.

If Trump had not ripped up the JCPOA, Jerusalem would have been the third city to suffer under a nuke.
