The Iran apologists have been around for a long time

The New Neo Posted on August 6, 2015 by neoAugust 6, 2015

Here’s a tremendously informative article in Commentary on the “give Iran a chance” wing of the left, and how long they’ve been trying to influence our foreign policy—essentially, ever since the 1979 Iranian revolution that ushered in the theocracy there. … Continue reading →

Hinderaker on Obama’s Iran deal speech

The New Neo Posted on August 6, 2015 by neoAugust 6, 2015

John Hinderaker has what I think is just about the best analysis and reaction to Obama’s speech yesterday to sell his Iran deal. It’s well worth reading the entire thing (and sending it out to others), but the summary line … Continue reading →

Obama’s Iran speech

The New Neo Posted on August 5, 2015 by neoAugust 5, 2015

Obama pisses on America’s leg and tells us it’s raining. You can read about it here and here. Highlighted quote: “Just because Iranian hard-liners chant ”˜death to America’ does not mean that that’s what all Iranians believe,” Obama said to … Continue reading →

Kerry doesn’t want us to screw the Ayatollah

The New Neo Posted on August 5, 2015 by neoAugust 5, 2015

And “screw” is our illustrious Secretary of State’s word, not mine. Here is the full Kerry quote, from a Jeffrey Goldberg interview in the Atlantic. It is worth pondering and understanding that Kerry is the man in charge of the … Continue reading →

The Iran deal: Schumer’s choice

The New Neo Posted on August 4, 2015 by neoAugust 4, 2015

Senator Charles (“Chuck”) Schumer of New York faces a tough choice: back Obama’s Iran deal and anger many of his New York Jewish constituents, or oppose the deal and anger Obama and much of the Democratic Party leadership. Prediction: Schumer … Continue reading →

In the event of an anti-Iran Deal veto override, Obama could simply ignore Congress

The New Neo Posted on August 1, 2015 by neoAugust 1, 2015

And I have little doubt that that’s exactly what he would do if he thought it would work. Here are several possible scenarios: First, [Obama] may simply announced that every bank that does business with Iran in accordance with the … Continue reading →

Key Iran deal documents…

The New Neo Posted on July 23, 2015 by neoJuly 23, 2015

…are missing from the information submitted to Congress, and Senators Corker and Cardin have written John Kerry to request them. Maybe they should ask Hillary to check her server. Just in case. More here. “Most transparent” yada yada yada.

“A defeat without a war”

The New Neo Posted on July 21, 2015 by neoJuly 21, 2015

This post by Scott Johnson at Powerline is a good summary of the Iran deal, and it has some excellent links. See also this by Thomas Sowell. I think the last line of the piece is too understated; the phrase … Continue reading →

The New Neo Posted on July 18, 2015 by neoJuly 18, 2015

Khamenei the “conservative” weighs in, post-Iran-deal

The New Neo Posted on July 18, 2015 by neoJuly 18, 2015

Ah, it’s just a bunch of blustering hot air, right? He doesn’t mean a word of it, and he’s not in charge anyway (and yes, that’s sarcasm on my part): Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei withheld his verdict on Iran’s … Continue reading →

Obama’s press conference: takes one to know one

The New Neo Posted on July 15, 2015 by neoJuly 16, 2015

You can watch it for me. I’m not into that much self-punishment. William Jacobson reports on it at Legal Insurrection. Obama is riding high, demonstrating most of his now-familiar techniques: impugning the motives of the opposition, saying they spread misinformation … Continue reading →

Selling Iran the rope

The New Neo Posted on July 15, 2015 by neoJuly 15, 2015

A quote from Lenin that’s been running through my head, post Iran deal: “The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them.” Several commenters here have pointed out the ramifications of the Iran deal, particularly to … Continue reading →
