Trump on Iran’s lying about its nuclear program: “Not an acceptable situation”

Apr 30, 2018 4:50 pm By Robert Spencer

Obama’s legacy is coming to a head.

“Trump answers Netanyahu bombshell on Iran: ‘Not an acceptable situation,’” by Alex Pappas, Fox News, April 30, 2018:

President Trump called the Iran nuclear deal a “horrible agreement for the United States” in response to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s bombshell allegations about Tehran’s covert activity – but stopped short of saying whether he’d abandon the deal ahead of a looming deadline.

The president addressed the claims during a Rose Garden press conference Monday afternoon, moments after Netanyahu held a dramatic presentation revealing intelligence he says shows Iran is lying about its nuclear weapons program.

“That is just not an acceptable situation,” Trump said.

Trump said Netanyahu’s claims show Iran is “not sitting back idly.”

Netanyahu on nuclear deal: Iran lied, big time

“They’re setting off missiles which they say are for television purposes,” Trump said. He added: “I don’t think so.”

Trump has repeatedly expressed a desire to exit the Iran deal, which was signed during the Obama administration. A crucial deadline for re-certifying the deal is on the horizon.

Netanyahu clearly intended for Trump to see his presentation, as he noted that Trump would soon make a key decision on the Iran deal.

“I’m sure he’ll do the right thing,” Netanyahu said.

On Monday, Trump suggested he could seek to negotiate a new agreement, something he discussed during French President Emmanuel Macron’s visit to Washington last week.

“So we’ll see what happens,” Trump said, when asked about the announcement. “I’m not telling you what I’m doing. [A lot] of people think they know. And on or before the 12th, we’ll make a decision.”

The president made the comments during a joint press conference with visiting Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari.

Trump said that overall, “what we’ve learned has really shown that I have been 100 percent right.”…

      Absolutely ,Dum Spiro . Does anyone REALLY believe that Iran would abide by any agreement that limits their ability to develop nuclear weapons ? I believe they already have one or are VERY close to achieving their goal thanks to Obama . They are just testing delivery missiles which is what President Trump was talking about in the presser. I believe Obama was working to help Iran all along …..as he said ” the world does not belong to those who insult the prophet , Muhammad “

      This will make Israel more of an enemy of Iran than they already are..
      Personally i believe Israel should just be turned loose on Iran….but of course that would not fit in because it would probably cause a wide ranging war. in the mid east

    As always, President Trump’s instincts are spot on. Iran is a rogue, totalitarian state spreading its Islamic Supremacist message through imperialism and terrorism. Europe is pathetic and in denial, as usual…

      The Europeans were wrong about Stalin and the US had to save them while at the same time they blathered on about moral equivalency between the USSR and the US. If anything the Mullahs of Iran are even more evil – they would sacrifice the whole country to destroy Israel and the US believing that all Iranians (especially themselves) would become martyrs and receive the blessings of Allah. The constant down on their knees praying like they do is a type of brain washing so their hate mongering can poison their brains.

    Whatever intelligence report the fascist evil Netanyahu presents to his slave savage mad devil trump, the nuclear deal is worthless and Iran will respond to counter any move by these two evil entities. Iran will then carryingout nuclear tests, including Hydrogene bombs,and further test its effective ICBms and new generation undetectable drones to deliver nuclear warheads .All will be supprise

      Oh look. the failed ass wipe of a shit stain is back. Shouldn’t you be somewhere in a septic tank in the Middle East porking a goat or someone’s unfortunate lifvestock. I never cease to be amazed at how people like you who molest babies and maliciously and so cruelly rape little girls and beat women until they are unconscious because they are too intelligent to want to subject themselves to your cruel, cowardly, hateful, sexual deviant, uncontrollable lusts, actually have the audacity to comment on forums such as this.

          Hey Rarely, you just might be right. I have often wondered if this douche bag was playing us like lab rats. But, on the other hand, he may be as blatantly stupid and as big of an asshole as he presents here. I say this based on his many comments. One in particular was his condoning and supporting molesting babies and little girls. He stated that it would be a fun thing to do. I asked the moderator to report him to the authorities with the hope that he would be investigated for child molesting or at least disseminating child pornography. This, because he distinctly conveyed the impression that he was involved in some way. The best thing perhaps is to just ignore this shit stain for what he is. It is too bad the the moderator here does not block him.

    whatever intelligence report the fascist evil Netanyahu presents to his savage mad devil slave trump, it will never deter Iran from developing all weapons to defend itself .The so-called nuclear deal is now worthless and Iran will respond to counter any move by these two evil entities by carryingout nuclear tests, including Hydrogene nuclear bombs with ICBms already tested and new generation undetectable drones to deliver nuclear warheads.

      You are truly insane aren’t you? To worship a piece of crap like muhammud and this non existant god called allah, who is nothing more than an imaginary, satanic piece of dog excrement. allah is an imaginary construct who is a pedophile, a sexually deviant, sick twisted non entity that you idiots believe is a god. Face reality little boy, allah is nothing, a nobody a non entity. He is an imaginary, figment of the fat little dwarf muhammud’s imagination. You dummies are supposedly forbidden from worshiping humans I thought. Oh wait…..muhammud is not a human, he is a low life scumbag and a shit stain…..almost forgot there.

      ……………………………

      Ibrahim itace muhammed seems to be missing the point–Trump has noticed that Iran is still developing nukes, and this Muslim troll just threatens us with Iranian nukes. Shouldn’t he be assuring us that Iran is peaceful?

      Ibrahim itace muhammed clearly no longer wants to even go though the motions–Muslims just want to threaten and murder Infidels.

      More, in reply to PMP:

      ……………………………

      Of course, Ibrahim itace muhammed does not answer any questions–instead, he jut comes out with his absurd boilerplate about Christians being “mithrist” and worshiping an ancient Semitic goddess, and smelling bad because they are not Muslims who wipe their asses with their bare hands.

      That none of these things are true or make the slightest sense does not bother him, and he would gladly murder any of us here over this insanity.

    One wonders if Trump ratcheted up the Korean impasse in order to compel a temporary resolution of THAT conflict….as the precursor for attacking Iran. Imagine the President basking in all that international goodwill as he shakes Kim Jong-un’s hand and signs an agreement ending a 65 year conflict on the Korean peninsula….and then using that goodwill to mute the world’s reaction to a subsequent attack on Iran.

    I don’t usually give Trump that kind of credit for such depth of strategic thinking, but this might possibly be the agenda. We’ll see.

    It should come as absolutely no surprise whatsoever to discover that the Mullahs lied, and never had any intention of curbing their objective of developing a nuclear arsenal. The red flag that all should have seen, but did not understand, was the ten-year term of the so-called deal, which clearly identifies it as a hudna. Kerry and the European representatives who entered into this suicidal agreement doubtless knew nothing of the significance of a hudna, but I am quite sure that the treasonous Occupant of the White House, who attended a Muslim religious school, knew perfectly well what the United States was agreeing to. If the non-Muslim parties involved had known anything about Islam, they would have been aware that the fanatically pious Mullahs would have followed Sunnah, emulating Muhammed when he entered into a peace treaty with the pagan Quraysh at Hudaibiyya. It is Sunnah for Muslims to refuse to agree to any military agreements with infidels that exceed ten years’ duration, and it should be expected that the Muslim party or parties will never be serious about adhering to the terms themselves, whatever they are, and will violate or ignore them entirely as soon as they are able. Hudnas are entered into by Muslims for only one reason – to buy time so they can quietly and covertly re-arm. Remember – Muhammed declared “War is deceit” (Bukhari 4:269). The willful blindness and appalling and unforgivable ignorance of our own government, nearly seventeen years after 9-11, about any of this is beyond grotesque, but Obama must take the lion’s share of the blame, and not only because he was (shudder) president at the time and supported this monstrous agreement wholeheartedly. For those of you who have need, I refer you to Hugh Fitzgerald’s memorable article published at Jihad Watch way back at the beginning of 2009 – it remains essential reading:

    Premise 1: Trump says it’s a bad deal. Netanyahu say it’s a bad deal.
    Premise 2: Obama said it was a good deal. The ass-kissing EU says it’s a good deal.

    Let’s get the war with Iran over with. And while we’re at it, let’s reconcile the entire War with the Ummah at large. It’s inevitable, by their ambition, not ours. They declare war on us on a daily basis, especially every Friday.

    We can either do it now, while we still hold the technological high ground, or we can wait decades until they’ve gained a nuclear threat to Kafirs. Either way, the War is in progress. It’s what they want, and there’s no talking them out of it.

    Bearing false witness is part and parcel of the false creed of islam..
    {taqqiya,tawriya,muruna,kitman are all well known muslim dissembling tricks}

    1.Its god ,the commandment-violating promoter of sinfulness,allah, admits in his “holy” koran..

    “allah is the best of deceivers”
    koran 3 v 54

    2.its “prophet” muhammed admits to being a deceiver and admits to falsifying things about God..

    “I have fabricated things against God and have imputed to him words he has not spoken”
    al tabari 6:111

    So you see that neither allah nor mo deny they are deceivers!mo even admits that he has fabricated things AGAINST God.

    “words he has not spoken”:that would be the perverse,immoral teachings of the commandment-of-God violating “holy” koran.
    the koran claims to be the words of god when in fact they are no such thing but fabricated lies.

    “Thou shalt not bear false witness”;one of those awkward commandments that 1allah 2 muslims 3 the koran neither know nor obey.

    If the koran was the word of God then it would not contradict …the Word Of God nor dispute His Commandments.

    So the shite Iranians feel perfectly entitled to bear false witness because their murderous god allah thinks it is ok!

    The Iranian leadership will be too obtuse ,too stupid, too lacking in wisdom to understand the folly of going against Israel.

    allah is NOT the God of Moses.

    What side is the God of Israel on?Given that the Iranians,in their stupidity,talk about wiping Israel out,they do not realize that their counterfeit god allah is no match for the Real Deal{the God of Moses,of Israel}In fact He has already predicted the outcome…..in favor of Israel’s survival…and catastrophe for those who wish to destroy His Holy Land.

    God of Israel vs “allah”

    once upon a time:

    David{+God of Israel} vs goliath{+baal}

    Today:

    Israel{+God of Israel} vs enemies of Israel{with their “allah”}

    Who is lucky enough to have the God of Israel on their side?
    Its not the shite Iranian shites……..

    Trump, needless to say, is right; nonetheless, the Fifth Column MSM and the seditionist Democrats will vilify the President. Treachery is the base of the Democrats, Leftist Progressive’s and their ally Islam.
    Leftist Americans, dullards, drawn into this vortex of perfidy will, in the end, fall upon the sword of Islam. I, for one, can hardly wait to witness the first leftist imbecile’s decapitation by a Jihadi.
    America has the first President, in decades, who has put America first. His perfidious predecessor, Obama, tossed America under the bus while the Leftist scourge and Islamic contagion applauded. The draining of the swamp will never come to pass; this toxic body rife with betraying, bottomfeeding leftist scumbags is sanctioned and maintained by the Democrats, the FBI, and the DOJ.
