Krauthammer: Iran Isn’t Building Ballistic Missiles to Attach ‘Sticks of Dynamite’

RUSH EXCERPT:

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: "There might be at most a useless gesture or two, but Menendez is absolutely right. The administration is walking on egg shells. The whole agreement was meant to deter Iran from doing things we don’t want them to do. It’s become the exact opposite. This is a self-deterring agreement. In other words, Obama and the administration are terrified that Iran, having received everything up front, all the money, the dropping of sanctions which will never be renewed, the beginning of business in Iran, all of this is already done. Iran having pocketed all the concessions up front. It is prepared to walk away any day because the rest of the agreement only constraints its program. So they are afraid to do anything to make any serious gestures, sanctions, whatever, even statements condemning Iran for what it’s doing, as you say, for supplying rebels in Yemen, for supplying Hezbollah, the ballistic missile test. All this is happening and we won’t do a thing because the president is afraid Iran will walk away from this great legacy agreement. We are the ones who aren’t deterred."
