US President Donald Trump is trying to satisfy Israel and the Israeli lobby in the United States by reneging on the Iran nuclear deal, an American writer and retired professor says. James Petras, a professor emeritus of sociology at Binghamton University in Binghamton, New York, and adjunct professor at Saint Mary's University in Halifax, Nova Scotia in Canada, in an interview with Press TV on Tuesday, shortly before Trump was set to decide on the nuclear deal. Trump has declared that he would pull the US out of the nuclear deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), which lifted nuclear-related sanctions on Tehran in exchange for curbs on its nuclear program. “Most expectations regarding President Trump’s decision whether to abandon the nuclear agreement... [is] that Trump will sabotage the agreement and withdraw,” Professor Petras said. “There is a some possibility that he will accept on the basis of Iran reversing its commitments to defend itself with intercontinental missiles, and would abandon Yemen and Syria and Hezbollah and other defense partners,” he stated. “This is highly unlikely on the part of Iran,” he added. “And I think Trump is using these possibilities as a bargaining point to convince the Europeans to support him.” “But the consensus here is that Trump is trying to satisfy Israel and the Israeli lobby in the United States by reneging on the agreement,” the analyst said. “Now some of his advisers, not many but a few, are arguing that by breaking the agreement with Iran Trump is prejudicing his negotiations with North Korea, because the North Koreans can have very little trust in any agreement with Trump in light of the fact that an agreement in one year is reneged the following year,” he noted. “It’s very dubious that anyone will trust Trump signing any agreement on the basis that it’s not trustworthy,” the scholar concluded. Poster Comment: [Tatarewicz] US pullout is just an excuse to re-impose sanctions which Israel wants. Trump has to pander to the Zionists as long the Israeli lobby, neocons and other American Jews keep helping Israel-friendly candidates get elected to the policy-making, war-funding Congress RayR...All the leaders dance to the Zionists music... It;s time to wake up from their trance.. STOP AIPAC IN USA... US President Donald Trump is announcing his decision regarding the 2015 JCPOA nuclear deal with Iran. Trump is expected to accuse Tehran of violating the “spirit” of the agreement and reimpose US sanctions. The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), imposed strict restrictions on Iran’s nuclear capabilities in exchange for relief from UN-imposed sanctions. The 2015 agreement was signed by Iran and the five permanent UN Security Council members (Russia, China, the US, UK, France) and Germany. The deal was seen as a crowning achievement of President Barack Obama’s foreign policy. Trump, however, repeatedly called the agreement “one the worst deals ever” and vowed to repeal it during his 2016 presidential campaign. So far, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has repeatedly certified Iran’s full compliance with the agreement, and the European Union has deferred to its judgment. [Tatarewicz] Expect US to now use its pullout as a lever to hassle countries continuing with JCPOA over oil and other business deals, perhaps even discouraging American corporations to do business with them. Can't be more stupid. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest Begin Trace Mode for Comment # 4.
