IRAN HAS BECOME EMBOLDENED DESPITE OBAMA’S SO-CALLED NUCLEAR AGREEMENT: That’s what President Trump said this past Tuesday in Youngstown, Ohio, and he’s right.

Iran’s violent troublemaking is both old news and breaking news.

By one count, in 1996 the regime was involved in at least 17 international conflicts, most of them in the Middle East or Central Asia, but its malign tentacles touched even South America. Today Tehran’s tentacles engage well over two dozen conflicts, and likely more since several conflicts in Africa and Asia are wars within wars within wars. It’s no matter, creating violent trouble is Tehran’s business. That’s the regime’s past and present.

Next time Obama’s rotten Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action comes up for certification –that should be in October– Washington needs to tell Tehran that the very bad deal is simply too flawed to work.
