Here's a Collection of Ben Rhodes' Tweets That Got Everything Wrong on Iran

The Obama administration and the media outlets which disseminated Ben Rhodes’ (admitted) propaganda on the Iran nuclear deal were wrong about everything.

The Republicans, President Donald Trump, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu were right.

Here’s a collection of Ben Rhodes on Twitter — now as a likely member of the alliance pushing the comical narrative of a 2018 “#BlueWave” — getting everything wrong on Iran right up until the past few weeks:

It would not be "so easy" since there is a far-reaching inspections and verification regime to ensure that Iran is abiding by its commitments (which it is). Will Trump achieve a similar regime in North Korea? Does he even know how these agreements work? https://t.co/63z3vAUbJH

The Iran Deal imposes strict, verified limitations on Iran's centrifuges and stockpile to prevent them from obtaining a nuclear weapon. What Trump has talked about on NK – a vague, unverified commitment to denuclearization – is nowhere near as restrictive as the Iran Deal https://t.co/CbxInMMGbT

Bolton has called for war with Iran and North Korea (among others). Pompeo has attacked the Iran Deal relentlessly. The writing is on the wall, and Trump is making a hard turn in the direction of conflict, insecurity, and the global isolation of the United States. https://t.co/fCFoLK8YMK

We could also keep the Iran Deal in place so that Iran is prohibited from obtaining a nuclear weapon https://t.co/AQ8bo1ItVo

With Pompeo at State, Trump poised to toss aside an Iran nuclear deal that is far better than anything he could possibly hope to achieve with North Korea.

Diplomacy preferable to escalation, but success depends upon patience and expertise – particularly on nuclear issue. Iran talks took years and involved scientists, sanctions experts, Iran analysts, and diplomats. https://t.co/StZTVRjAG4

Important thread. By escalating conflicts, hollowing out State, pulling out of agreements, alienating allies who could share burdens, and dismissing diplomacy, Trump is militarizing foreign policy and risking more wars. https://t.co/n1yw3Ae4vK

On the same day that @VP Pence repeats line that US “will no longer certify the disastrous Iran nuclear deal,” the IAEA certifies for the 10th straight time that it is working as planned https://t.co/hulr6QviGT

Trump and Bibi seem to share a fear and loathing of their law enforcement agencies.

"A collapse of the nuclear deal could see a breakdown in the relations between the United States and Europe…. and could confirm Europe’s fears that it can no longer count on U.S. leadership." https://t.co/B0T3pyFLjc

The Iranian people are rightfully demanding dignity, less corruption, more opportunity, and greater control over their lives. In looking at US twitter, it seems lost on too many that this is about what Iranians want for Iran, and not about us.

The Iran Deal rolled back the Iranian nuclear program. Meanwhile, nothing since 1979 has strengthened Iran more than the decision to invade Iraq, installing a friendly, Shia-led government next door. https://t.co/aTcul1pzsu

A Ben Rhodes retweet:

There are many reasonable critiques of Obama's foreign policy. The idea that he was soft on Hezbollah is not one of them. The story is so manufactured out of thin air that it's hard to push back except to say that it's a figment of the imagination of two very flawed sources.

There is boundless irony and hypocrisy in how much people who love to sneer at "echo chambers" live entirely inside a perpetual right wing echo chamber of non-fact based anti Iran Deal propaganda. https://t.co/mMw1Zk4Ckv

Iran is a malign actor in much of the region, but this clearly false hyperbole (for instance ISIS is fighting Iran) only hurts US credibility at the UN https://t.co/izjs26IRKu

What has been gained by: slashing refugee admissions, pulling out of Paris, rolling back Cuba opening, decertifying Iran Deal, pulling out of TPP? What is the strategic rationale for these steps? How does it serve US interests?

The same people who call for sanctions/criticize Obama Iran policy ignore that sanctions only worked bc Obama got the world to cooperate https://t.co/URcwYiywEN

— Ben Rhodes (@brhodes) October 22, 2017

This makes no sense and shows that Trump has no idea what's in the Iran Deal or how sanctions work. https://t.co/URcwYiywEN
