Morning . The president obama is defending this deal saying the sanctions would snap back into place if iran violates any part. President obama says a deal with iran over Nuclear Weapons outweighs the alternative. Why we are taking the steps, because an iran armed with a Nuclear Weapon would be far more destabilizing and far more dangerous to our friends and the world. The u. S. Worked with five other superpowers to abandon its Nuclear Program, in exchange for lifting crippling economic sanctions. The nation is still on the list of state sponsors of terrorism, and had ignored agreements over its Nuclear Program in the past. This deal is not built on trust. Its built on verification. Critics in congress along with leaders of israel saudi arabia and other middle east allies wasted no time condemning the deal. This is the most dangerous irresponsible step ive seen in the history of watching the middle east. This does not guarantee that iran will not achieve a Nuclear Weapon in the future.
