(94,012 posts)So Iran doesnt just get the deal back. It gets a far bigger payday, courtesy of Trumps war.
So to recap:
Republicans claim Obama gave Iran $1.7 billion, for funsies
Trump tears up Obama deal
Trump claims Kamala Harris will launch war against Iran, but hes the candidate of peace
Trump launches war against Iran
Iran replaces Ayatollah Khamenei with younger, worse Ayatollah Khamenei
Trump declares victory, several times
War weirdly continues
Iran closes the Strait of Hormuz, which everyone expected except Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth
Trump lifts sanctions on Iranian oil, rewarding them with massive profit
Trump people now are floating Obama deal, but with even more money for Iran
Profit!

(55 posts)Iran will not let Trump out of this mess. They will likely demand lifting of all sanctions, compensation, tolls for ships, security guarantees, etc. They have absolutely no reason for any type of ceasefire where this happens all over again six months later.
