The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Indeed. The only people who thought Iran was holding to that “deal” were the antisemites in the Obama admin that drafted it in the first place. Of course they probably didn’t mind if Iran got - and perhaps used - the bomb.


The deal delayed Iran getting the bomb, no one thought Iran wouldn't eventually get a bomb, but a 15-20 year delay was a good idea, we could deal with the problem later, and perhaps put it off even further. But when Trump departed the deal, Iran started up again in earnest. A two year delay now puts us closer to Iran getting a bomb than under the Obama deal. The situation is not improved, it's worse than under Obama. Of course your capacity to pretend otherwise is infinite, so you have that on your side.
