Iran puts U.S. reporter on trial behind closed doors

Obama values a nuclear deal with Iran more than he values US captives and has warned Congress that he would veto any bill making approval of a nuclear deal with Iran contingent on the release of Americans in Iranian captivity.

That said, Obama's odious behavior does not exculpate Iran's odious behavior.

A deal to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons isn't going to be scuttled on the release or not of an American prisoner. Such matters are better dealt with in other diplomatic forums. But not wishing to have diplomatic relations with a country, sharing embassies and the access that such provides, makes matters a bit more difficult. Instead, each time this sort of thing happens, private citizens are left to deal with it themselves. Not very effective.
