Clinton: IS extremists hoping for Trump victory

He did not address the report’s assertions of exemptions.

The Obama administration strongly denied the thrust of the report, saying that the deal was being implemented according to the letter of the agreement.

The campaign of Donald Trump, the Republican nominee, pounced last Thursday, taking a shot at his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, who as secretary of state in President Barack Obama’s first term helped set the stage for the deal.

Said Clinton: “I found it even surprising how clear and compelling the case was, where he quoted ISIS spokespeople rooting for Donald Trump’s victory because Trump has made Islam and Muslims part of his campaign, and basically, Matt Olsen argues, that the jihadists see this as a great gift”.

“While Iran continues to support terrorism, challenge the United States, and engage in malign activities throughout the region, the Obama administration has enabled Iran to evade limits on their nuclear program”, Ayotte said.

Republicans have strongly opposed the deal.

Asked if she’d be more aggressive with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Clinton reiterated that “I think we need leverage with Putin, I am going to take everything that I have learned and that I know we can do and move as quickly as possible against them”. “But we are in a stronger position than we would have been to deal with this other malicious behavior, because of the nuclear agreement”.

Hillary Clinton speaking on the fourth day of the Democratic National Convention at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on July 28. “I introduced a resolution earlier this year that explicitly stated that sanctions should be reapplied in the event Iran violates the deal, and it turns out Iran wasn’t even in compliance when sanctions were first lifted”.

“They are saying, ‘Please Allah”.

Democrats and Clinton oppose the Republican proposals, saying they are stealth maneuvers to undercut the deal.

Clinton asserted that, on the contrary, the agreement to restrict Iran’s nuclear program has made the world safer. Israel must pay attention to these incidents and not simply be reassured by declarations that Iran is technically observing the terms of the deal. “Congress should put partisanship aside and send the president a clean ISA reauthorization bill for his signature”. LEU can be purified into highly enriched, weapons-grade uranium. Kirby also referenced a secret joint commission with Iran, which he used as a “shield of confidentiality to ward off questions”.

Those exemptions included not counting enriched uranium that had been converted into other chemical forms, which may have allowed Iran to surpass its 300 kilogram cap of low enriched uranium, Landau said.

In a likely appeal to Israeli and Jewish American public opinion, she said she was well aware of the gestures made over the years by Israeli leaders in efforts to achieve peace with the Palestinians, and maintained that Palestinian actions had often thwarted an agreement.

Albright said the exceptions risked setting precedents that Iran could use to seek additional waivers. “No further concessions should be granted to Iran, and complete transparency related to the deal’s implementation must be provided”.

U.S. Rep. Carlos Curbelo (R-FL) said that it is evident that the administration cut corners to provide “special concessions” to Iran that were undeserved. He has said that if the deal remains, he would “police that contract so tough they don’t have a chance”.
