Obama's treaty with Iran" is officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), commonly called the Iran nuclear deal. Finalized on July 14, 2015, and implemented in January 2016, it was a landmark agreement between Iran and the P5+1 (the United States, United Kingdom, France, China, Russia, and Germany) plus the European Union.

Key Aspects of the JCPOA:
  • Purpose: To limit Iran's nuclear program in exchange for relief from nuclear-related economic sanctions.
  • Nuclear Restrictions: Iran agreed to reduce its enriched uranium stockpile by 98%, cap uranium enrichment at 3.67% (far below the 90% required for weapons), reduce its centrifuges by two-thirds for 10 years, and redesign the Arak heavy water reactor to prevent the production of weapons-grade plutonium.
  • Monitoring: The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) was given unprecedented access to monitor Iran's facilities and supply chain to ensure compliance.
  • Sanctions Relief: In exchange, the U.S., EU, and UN lifted nuclear-related sanctions, allowing Iran to regain access to billions of dollars in frozen assets and resume selling oil on international markets. [

Status and Controversy:
  • Withdrawal: The United States officially withdrew from the agreement in 2018 under President Donald Trump, who called it "defective at its core" and a "disaster," subsequently imposing a "maximum pressure" campaign of sanctions.

I believe he's on day 40 of 60. You don't get a restart. If there is a 2 week ceasefire, that puts it at day 54. The withdrawal period means no offensive, kinetic action can take place. Also, he couldn't support Israel in any meaningful way--other than intel--without authorization.

Basically, he's saying he's done. Now, he's just trying to make a deal. But, he's left himself with no cards. Restarting isn't going to be a go, and the regime still has control.

He needed an off-ramp. He should concentrate on mid-terms and salvage any and everything he can before November. However, according to Regan he still has late spring early summer when the MAGA Big Beatiful bill impacts the economy.

Since when do members get mod duty?

We expect people to report rule violations.....it's #5

You may want to review rules - Someone telling someone to fix something before it becomes a problem seems like a good thing to me.

5) We DO expect you to report any violations of these rules. This helps us keep this board a nice place to hang out. Use the pm button to send a message to any administrator or moderator to tip us off to any objectionable behavior or profanity/obscenity. We consider this to be every members' obligation as a member of SETXsports board.

I hate to bust your bubble again but we can tell when you are plagiarizing!  

You didn't bust it.  It came from AI Overview and not your beloved X.  I just typed in google.  AI gets all the credit.

Thank you AI. 😆

Unlike some of y’all, I’m not celebrating this ceasefire. I personally believe it’s a bad move. But, I’m always happy when our troops are out of harm’s way.

Of course, many regional bases aren’t out of harm’s way even now. So, I consider that partial mission failure.

I’ll hold final judgement until I read something conclusive about Iran’s nuclear material & ballistic missile program.

For the time being, I’ll use another acronym that should be familiar to those that have served.

Wrong 

It was number ten on Iran’s list of ten.  Israel didn’t agree, apparently.

It’s there.  You can find it anywhere.  But Trump was willing to do anything to get his big fat behind out of this mess and he should have talked to Bibi first.

I'm not disagreeing with you.  I will always celebrate when lives are saved. Putting troops on that island would have devastating. IMO
