up that deal and now he is starting an unneeded war over Iran’s nuclear program?

We had a deal worked out to keep Iran from ever getting a nuclear weapon and Donny tore up
that deal which allowed for 24/7 inspections any place in Iran by the International atomic energy
administration to make sure Iran wasn’t building a nuclear weapon. You can’t build a nuclear
weapon without bomb grade nuclear materials and the treaty that President Obama, Secretary of
State John Kerry, and Sec. of Energy and Chairmen of M.I.T. physics department Ernie Moniz got
done did just that.

There are two ways to get bomb grade nuclear material: # 1 is by enriching Uranium 235 until it is @ least
95% + pure by the use of centrifuges which the treaty stopped Iran from having or making plutonium in
breeder reactors which Iran did not have and the agreement made it impossible for Iran to have such
reactors and you can’t build or have such devices without leaving evidence of having such a program.

Every country in the world should now treat the United States and Donald Trump as pariahs and
threats to the World’s peace. They should shut down all trade, recall their ambassadors, and sell off all
“the paper” they are currently holding of the United States debt aka T-bills and bonds to force Trump
to stop his madness.

That crazy Mother Fucker is willing to kick off WW III because the Epstein Files shows him to
be a child rapist.
