TRUMP: Iran deal was so bad it's suspicious...

Somerville said:
It was just a bit more than 300 kilos

The 300 kilos is the amount Iran is allowed to keep under the terms of the nuclear deal

They are allowed under the deal to keep 300 kilos of enriched uranium... Well that's just a reaffirmation that it was a bad deal.

Oh? How so?

What would they used all that enriched uranium for?

It was at least 2 years ago when they had been able to enrich well beyond the use for anything industrial and the only use for uranium enriched to that point is weapons... yet the deal allows them to keep 300 kilos of that??
bad deal.

You should already know what they are, if not there is likely no point in talking to you.
But since we haven't had an interchange yet I will give you the benefit of the doubt.

a few things that should be obvious --

Bomb development by them . not likely though.
Dirty bomb development by them.
Or the most likely, them selling the enriched uranium to a state the US is at odds with.. which just happened.
Or lastly selling the enriched uranium to anyone at all and using the money to sponsor terror around the world. probably the most likely of the outcomes.

:rolleyes: The 300 kilos are lowly enriched uranium by the way.

It does not take a rocket scientist, to figure out how bad this deal was! It's a deal with the Devil and it was stupid and unconscionable.

Trump, as usual, is spot on.

Yet he says that he will not overturn it if elected. Good for him.

"
Unlike most of his fellow rivals for the Republican presidential nomination, real estate mogul Donald Trump would not rescind President Barack Obama's nuclear deal with Iran.
I've heard a lot of people say, 'We're going to rip up the deal.' It's very tough to do when you say, 'Rip up a deal,'" Trump said Sunday on NBC's "Meet The Press."
Instead, the businessman who is currently leading GOP polls in the race for the White House promised to "police" Iran to make sure the country doesn't break the terms of the agreement.
"You know, I've taken over some bad contracts. I buy contracts where people screwed up and they have bad contracts," he said. "But I'm really good at looking at a contract and finding things within a contract that, even if they're bad, I would police that contract so tough that they don't have a chance. As bad as the contract is, I will be so tough on that contract."
Every Republican presidential candidate except Jeb Bush has promised to rip up the deal on the first day of their presidency. Trump argued that it would be unrealistic to do so because it would be hard to recoup the estimated $150 billion windfall Iran would gain after the lifting of sanctions.

where is your source for that? and even if so that still fits a dirty bomb scenario.

appears you have ruled this possibility out on your own. if not, just say so and i will address it

that would be a weapon of mass disruption. non-lethal, except from the conventional explosives used
something the iranians could have done long ago, and have not
termination of the nuclear agreement causes the stakes to be much higher for iran to broach for so little return

Or the most likely, them selling the enriched uranium to a state the US is at odds with.. which just happened.

actually, that transfer to russia was part of the deal. notably, russia was one of the 5+1 members; a party to the agreement
in return, iran will be able to receive enriched isotopes from russia to power its non-military devices that require such materiel
again, part of the negotiated agreement to eliminate iran's need to maintain its enrichment operations

Or lastly selling the enriched uranium to anyone at all and using the money to sponsor terror around the world. probably the most likely of the outcomes.

yea, the $150 Billion iran received as monies withheld during the sanctions is insufficient. the comparable pittance realized from those few kilos is going to be the difference that enables iran to fund its brand of freedom fighters
the 5+1 have inspectors at every point in the iranian nuclear process. from mining to processing to enriching to transporting. anything iran did that was nefarious would be known in real time

your alarm is unjustified

Its your opinion that alarm is unjustified and no one said it was alarm.. well except yourself. I said it was a bad deal. and in that you didn't really refute it.

However you appear to be unable to explain just why this is a "bad deal"

It's a bad deal because it was made by a Democratic president. Why, it has Democrat cooties all over it! How, in this era of hyper partisanship, could it not be a bad deal?
