Secretary Pompeo delivers a speech on a new Iran strategy
Demands for Iran: •Stop enrichment of uranium •Close heavy water reactors •Allow IAEA inspectors everywhere •End ballistic missile •Release US citizens •End support to Hezbollah, Hamas, IJ, Houthis, Taliban •Iran must withdraw from Syria •Iran must support Iraq Gov, disarm Shia militias
>"After our sanctions come in force it will be battling to keep its economy alive." Iran will be force to make a choice. Either fight to keep its economy off life support at home or keep squandering precious wealth on fights abroad."
Neither China nor Russia nor India will stop doing business with Iran. you're just opening new markets to them, as our company will probably fold and GTFO from Iran. Kind of funny, you're helping your declared geopolitical opponents

Trusting Obama was your mistake. Repent before its too late. Isolate Iran, stick to the plan.
And faith in your washington circus is your weakness. What will happen ? EU will fold, EU companies will be replaced in Iran by Russian or Chinese one. At some point you'll damage a little bit their economy but who cares? They are already under sanctions. they'll just fully dump the dollars, trade in whatever other currency (just as Venezuela will do as well), but nothing will change in their other policies.
And in 2 years, you'll eventually find out sanctions has failed. So you'll be tempted by yet another direct military intervention, which is assured to be a total fiasco because of the geographical position of Iran, and their tremendous capacity of retaliation.
With this Iran Israel Chimpout, you've just damaged the trust one could have in the US to the point of no return. And you will just achieve nothing with that. No even manage to make Russian or Iranian attack directly your puppets.

Think long term. The EU will hurt but who will hurt more?
Nothing is long term there. Plan A (Syrian regime change) failed. Face the reality, Assad is going to take back all its land, and will make the occupation of Golan horribly expensive.
Plan B (Sanction Iran) is setup to fail, as this time the whole fucking world is not on your side.
So what's gonna be the plan C, as you'll assist to the alliance of Russia, Iran, China, Venezuela & al. which have a fuckton of ressources to wage any kind of war, while you have almost none left on your side ?
ahahah, do you sincerely believe NK will give away its nukes "to avoid the fate of Lybia" ???
If the summit takes place, there is zero chance of success.
Huffing, puffing and insulting your negociation partner will not work. NK will not totally disarm to please Trump, no matter how hard this idiot will push.

If it actually happens.

Art of the deal. Who rises and who falls? The summit is eye candy for the masses while Pompeo and Moon have already reached a conclusion.
i feel like the US is overplaying their hand. Everyone disagrees with their decision, and if Europe tries to act like big boys the US will get a devastating diplomatic loss
