ex-National Security Adviser Susan Rice torches Trump
for “de able lies” about Obama giving funds to Iran
“The facts about the Iran nuclear deal are that it effectively halted and rolled back Iran’s nuclear program.
In the years since the signing of the deal in 2015 up until President Trump’s unilateral withdrawal,
abandoning our allies against the advice of his advisers,
there were no proxy attacks by Iranian proxies on U.S. personnel in Iraq.
There were no efforts by Iran to attack our drones in the Persian Gulf or attack shipping,” she said.
“Everybody, including the American intelligence community, validated that it was being upheld and
our forces and our presence in the region was secure.
President Trump decided, recklessly, to withdraw unilaterally from the nuclear deal and
impose so-called maximum pressure, crippling sanctions, and
it was in the wake of that that we found ourselves in this escalatory cycle that’s led to where we are today, a very dangerous moment.”
The “$150 billion” is one of the right-wing’s favorite lies about President Obama and the nuclear peace deal and has been a constant theme in the president’s rhetoric.
The $150 billion in question does not exist and
is entirely a figment of the president’s imagination.
