| True. Nor did the Obama coterie need them to, so long as they had a region-changing “historic agreement” to point to. |
 [Victory Girls] Iran never intended to comply with the Iran Deal. Forty years to the day that Iranians stormed the U.S. Embassy and took Americans hostage, Iran announced it will start injecting uranium gas into one thousand or more centrifuges.
"President Hassan Rouhani said in a televised address that 1,044 machines at the Fordow nuclear facility, which is built inside a mountain near the city of Qom, will be activated with the gas beginning on Wednesday.
Under the Obama-era accord, Iran can spin the centrifuges without gas.
But Rouhani, noting that this action like all others it has taken so far is reversible, said the Islamic Republic will follow the pact’s guidelines when the remaining signatories ‐ France, Britain, Germany, the European Union, Russia and China ‐ honor their commitments.
"We know their sensitivity with regard to Fordow. With regard to these centrifuges, we know. But at the same time when they uphold their commitments we will cut off the gas again ... So it is possible to reverse this step," Rouhani said. "We can’t unilaterally accept that we completely fulfill our commitments and they don’t follow up on their commitments.""
In other words, once everyone falls into line, then we’ll stop rebuilding our nuclear program. Do you believe that? You shouldn’t. I don’t.
Rouhani was very strategic with his announcement. He specifically chose November 4. Why? As noted above, forty years ago, our embassy was seized and fifty two Americans were held hostage for 444 days. His announcement, along with the protests yesterday, was a strategic slam against Trump for backing out of the deal.
