The Mullahs Thank Mr. Obama
Keywords:
Tags: United States,
This editorial in the WSJ says Reagan negotiated with the Soviets from a position of strength, while president Obama has made concession after concession till the Ayatollah could not turn down a deal. It says Iran is run by the Revolutionary Guards and the Ayatollah, who see the deal offered by Obama in their interests, and that the deal took place because of this, not because of the willingness of the Rouhani government to negotiate. It says even the relatively small sanctions against specific individuals and companies have been held back by the Obama administration because of an election in Iran.

What the Iran nuclear deal of July 2015 achieves and does not achieve- the different goals of Iran and the Obama administration in the U.S.
07/18/2015
It achieves the narrow goals of the Obama adminsitration, and for Iran it provides a way to protect the Islamic revolution by easing conditions for the people, says one expert. The Obama administration may be thinking in the short term of 8-10 years, the Ayatollah may be looking much longer term to continue the way Iran is governed today by religious leaders.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
