I don't understand why this agreement was dropped, other than Trump's circular logic that it's a bad deal because it's a bad deal. Has he offered any reasons, any facts at all?
Iran would have had unrestricted nuclear development capability in 2030. Trump has given them that now. How is that better?
Obviously to a sane, thinking person, it is not. But that is also not what we are experiencing here.
I work with a guy who is Marine reserve. He is typical gung-ho with a double dose of caffeine! There seems to be a difference now from the Marine friends and relatives I have that is not an improvement - the overall attitude is even more aggressive and there is the overtly expressed desire to 'hurry up' and let's get the war started - soon! He spent a few weeks of special training in Korea about year ago and came back amped up even more. To all appearances, he actually believes that we can take care of N Korea, Iran, and finish up Afghanistan in just a few months without getting our nose bloodied. That is stupid, but it is also something that I don't really have words for or know what to think about. It is NOT a good thing!
He has a couple brothers who are active duty and have had combat deployments (1 Marine, 1 Army) - they have killed people - and they are not quite so 'enthusiastic'. He sees that as a sign of weakness in his brothers...I think he is suffering from a delusion or two (little brother syndrome gone crazy??) ...his one deployment was in a rear area (Kuwait) in charge of shipping beans and bullets.
Granddaughter is getting the same amped-up hype in preparation for deployment late this year or early next year.
Trump is bound and determined to get his war!
