Nuclear security

Trump team's typo and Netanyahu's fluff can't obscure Iran deal stakes


Trump's 'fire and fury' is not going to help in the Middle East
Monday night, the White House issued a statement showing support for a presentation Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had just given.
Check that. They issued TWO statements showing support for Netanyahu's presentation.
In case you missed it, Netanyahu unveiled what he called a "trove" of Iranian data and records that demonstrate Iran lied about its nuclear weapons program and that it still intends to pursue that program in the future.
    His point, ostensibly, was to prove that the Iran deal -- officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA -- was based on faulty assumptions, flawed logic and poor information. But his goal was no doubt to nudge President Trump even closer to scrapping the deal.
