Okay so.
Maybe it was chess all along.
Trump is now saying that Iran is upholding the terms of the deal Obama made with them. Basically, Trump’s hostile language towards Iran was the only part of his campaign rhetoric I disagreed with (and his pro-Israel stuff, but that goes without saying).
But now he is backing off of that, so…
I don’t even know, man.
Maybe now it’s just that everything is going to be the opposite of what was said on the campaign – including the things we didn’t like. So maybe that means he’ll turn against Israel…?
The Trump administration said on Tuesday it was launching an inter-agency review of whether the lifting of sanctions against Iran was in the United States’ national security interests, while acknowledging that Tehran was complying with a deal to rein in its nuclear program.
In a letter to U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan, the top Republican in Congress, on Tuesday U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said Iran remained compliant with the 2015 deal, but said there were concerns about its role as a state sponsor of terrorism.
Under the deal, the State Department must notify Congress every 90 days on Iran’s compliance under the so-called Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). It is the first such notification under U.S. President Donald Trump.
“The U.S. Department of State certified to U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan today that Iran is compliant through April 18 with its commitments under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action,” Tillerson said in a statement.
“President Donald J. Trump has directed a National Security Council-led interagency review of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action that will evaluate whether suspension of sanctions related to Iran pursuant to the JCPOA is vital to the national security interests of the United States,” Tillerson added.
He did not say how long the review would take but said in the letter to Ryan that the administration looked forward to working with Congress on the issue.
During his presidential campaign, Trump called the agreement “the worst deal ever negotiated,” raising questions over whether he would rip up the agreement once he took office.
After that nutty Syria attack and the rhetoric that followed, I was definitely expecting increasing hostility towards Iran.
But instead we have this.
I’m not going to encourage anyone to be hopeful at this point.
But if I was going to encourage people to be hopeful, I would give this as an example of why they might be hopeful.
We may not actually be headed toward a world war.
It’s been a weird 12 days.
