    This is a direct result of US pulling out of JCPOA and failing to be an honest actor dealing with Iran. As always, burger empire is at the root of the problems.

          Not really, there is no basis to revive the JCPOA. Iran doesn't show any interest in holding up its part of the agreement, even if a president reentered the JCPOA. The problem is that the next president could just come along and pull another Trump. And the sanctions regime that brought Iran to the table in the first place was very difficult to forge, so that won't be duplicated ever again.

            I don't disagree that Us political system being highly volatile makes it practically impossible for countries to make any long term agreements with US. The only rational thing to do is to deter the Us militarily.

            Oh that’s awful it was so difficult to forge your apparatus for terrorizing the Iranian people.

              China and Russia also had sanctions. It was extremely hard to put together, but competing powers all agreed that they didn't want another nuclear armed power mixed in with the mess in the Middle East.

                The US was the one that initiated it regardless, and I think China and Russia’s support for UN sanctions on Iran was incorrect.

        All of your politicians represent the capitalist imperialist class. Remember the US overthrew Iran’s democracy and propped up a monarch in the 1950s and have continued to violate Iran’s sovereignty since. If they weren’t armed they would be a Western slave state like Libya.
