Unicorn Fantasies & Arming Our Enemies

by Gary Bauer, Contributing Author: Secretary of State John Kerry testified before the House Foreign Affairs Committee yesterday in defense of President Obama's nuclear deal with Iran. In response to tough questions from Chairman Ed Royce (R-CA) and ranking member Eliot Engel (D-NY), Kerry insisted that there was no better option.

"Let me underscore: the alternative to the deal we've reached isn't a better deal. . . some kind of unicorn fantasy that contemplates Iran's complete capitulation," Kerry insisted.

Kerry later said, "This plan was designed to address the nuclear issue alone, not to reform Iran's regime, or end its support for terrorism or its contributions to sectarian violence in the Middle East."

There it is, my friends. The Obama Administration is claiming that the critics of the deal want a war. Yet Kerry is confessing that the Iranian regime will continue to wage war throughout the Middle East, and it will do it with $150 billion of sanctions relief we are providing!

TAKE ACTION: Your elected members of Congress are evaluating President Obama's nuclear deal right now. They need to know that their votes have consequences and that this issue will influence how you vote in the next election. Contact your elected representatives right now!

Arming Our Enemies
One of the key provisions of Obama's nuclear deal with Iran is that the Islamic Republic will gain access to more than $100 billion in assets currently frozen because of U.S. sanctions. Many have pointed out that this transfer indirectly makes Obama's deal the biggest aid to terrorism ever. And the proof is that Iran is already spending the money.

They are buying a highly sophisticated air defense system from Russia. Russia will use that money to promote unrest in Ukraine and elsewhere. There are reports today that Iran has signed a deal to buy fighter jets from China. China will likely use the money to counter U.S. influence in Asia. And, of course, Hamas and Hezbollah are awaiting their windfalls from the agreement. The deal is a disaster for this reason alone!

By the way, we reported two weeks ago that U.S. personnel are banned from participating in the international inspections of suspect Iranian nuclear sites. Yesterday the Associated Press finally picked up on this news.
