Trump would not be true to himself or his supporters if he did not ignore fruit loops like Macron and Merkel. And like any sensible person, he WOULD listen to Israel, whose very existence is constantly threatened by Iran.

The deal done by the U.S’s most awful president on record (although he probably ties with Jimmy Carter), Obama, was the most stupid thing that has ever occurred since Chamberlain’s 'peace in our time’. And Netanyahu's “stunts” are necessary and admirable in his gruelling, non-stop task of protecting his country.

Iran should be ostracised, not provided with anything at all, until the mad mullahs are removed and Iranians are able to choose a government that will treat them like human beings.

I'm sorry Alon, but I don't agree with your opinion this time. But see Trump a being a realist. It stands to reason as long as the world is a nuclear-armed camp. Some airhead somewhere will sooner or later use one to settle some perceive score or eliminate an ethnic community. To leave the rest of the world trembling in terrible trepidation wondering when it will be their turn or if they need to embrace an inherently evil belief system to avoid becoming the next target for annihilation? It seems to me, it would be better if those contemplating such action were the first to suffer from it and allow other to contemplate just how far they can go with the nuclear sabre rattling before they become its first casualties. And should some terror-supporting entity be that first casualty? Then some other nuclear-armed states may get the message? If they hold the nuclear sword over this or that nations head? That nation may well decide damned if we do or damned if we don't and launch a preemptive if limited strike that calls the aggressor's bluff? And better them than us especially if it leads to genuine worldwide nuclear disarmament Alan B.

All the more reason for Australia to accept another avalanche of homosexual Iranian refugees.

Writing in Quadrant Online today, Daryl McCann writes that the instigator of this stupid deal, Barack Obama, “was quite possibly the most dangerous Leader of the Free World imaginable”.

Hard to argue with that.

Iran was frightened stiff of Ronald Reagan. They are about to find out that Donald Trump is another U.S president they need to be frightened of. They can't take for him for a sucker as they did Obama.

Daryl McCann seems to be not aware that Obama was not the only signatory (besides Iran) to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.

Of interest in the halls of power in Iran and Turkey is today's very convivial meeting between Nethanyu And Putin. Who looked very much like newest best buddies when appearing together in public. And important given a nuclear-armed Israel could give Russia a bloody nose if they Russia, continue to meddle in the Middle East? Alan B.
