Which Nuclear Treaty will prove to be worse (POL)?

Am I missing something? Just how is selling weaponry to nations that hate us a good thing? Some say that the sale of such weaponry would be an economic boost to us - yeah, I guess so, since they will be paying us with money that we have given them for years for inflated oil. Does anyone here get it, or are we focusing on flags, gay marriages, transgenders, etc. while our nation is being overrun with illegal aliens, terrorists, incredible national debt and a totally dysfunctional government? Obviously our priorities as a nation have been side tracked with total B.S. while our enemies continue to grow stronger.

any nuclear cloud that arises over Tel-Aviv will float over Baghdad a day later....and Tehran a day after that. It doesn't pay to nuke people that are upwind.

Well the Iranians hate ISIS more than they hate you so I would expect them to be pointing those weapons at ISIS terrorists instead of you. It's also a good thing if this agreement between Iran and the world powers really prevents them from developing a nuke and may even help them to become better world citizens. I try to be positive.

In his speech before Congress, Bibi Netanyahu warned us about this agreement:

What if he's right?

Boiler suggested that Obama would agree to a program assuring Iraq of gifts today, in return for promises of actions later. Boiler was correct.

Gotta say..Drmilled is right on the mark
here. I can't see a legitimate argument against any point there whatsoever.

Those are a lot of different issues that need to be addressed separately rather than lumped together. The question was if this is going to be a better Nuclear treaty than the one with North Korea. It's hard to be worse than the NK one, so I think it's worth a shot. No pun intended.

Oh I agree and I'm pretty much in your camp here, I think something (hopefully) is better than nothing. Worth a shot.

I think DrM was merely pointing out that this countryhas lost focus and has diverted too much attention to the daily offensive topics/latest bitch about whatever petty bullshit that occurs. Seriously exhuming bodies, renaming highways on total knee-jerk reactions. I mean geez, you even told us about Fresno outlawing the sale of confederate flags. Fresno!? Seriously, how necessary was this? I know it's symbolic but gimme a break, they have no more pressing business?

You are correct tho, many different issues that need to be dealt with, others not so much.

It's already worse than the NK deal. Iran I still holding Americans hostage. They should have been released before any negotiations began. That should have been a condition of starting talks.
