Avoiding Tough Questions on Iran The Iranian nuclear deadline of June 30th is rapidly approaching. Evidence is mounting that Iran is already violating agreements, while Barack Obama is essentially admitting that we have no leverage to stop the Iranians. June 30th is the current deadline for Iran and international powers like the United States to reach a final agreement on its nuclear capabilities. Here are three important questions to consider: 1. How can we trust that the Iranians will abide by these this agreement? 2. Are we certain that the agreement we are crafting is taking all security issues into account and that Iran's intentions are pure? 3.

Dr. David Cooper, chair of the Department of National Security Affairs at the U.S. Naval War College, says that missile technology “turns out to be a remarkably accurate litmus test about any state’s nuclear intentions.” Yet as of right now, missile technology is not a part of this deal, which Obama is obsessed in securing... continue reading Bill Clinton's foundation cashed in as Sweden lobbied Hillary on sanctions According to documents obtained by The Washington Times: “Bill Clinton’s foundation set up a fundraising arm in Sweden that collected $26 million in donations at the same time that country was lobbying Hillary Rodham Clinton’s State Department to forgo sanctions that threatened its thriving business with Iran … As the money flowed to the foundation from Sweden, Mrs. Clinton’s team in Washington declined to blacklist any Swedish firms despite warnings from career officials at the U.S. Embassy in Stockholm that Sweden was growing its economic ties with Iran and potentially undercutting Western efforts to end Tehran’s rogue nuclear program.” The hits just keep on coming for the Clintons.
