NUCLEAR WAR-FEAR
OBAMA SECURES VOTES FOR IRAN DEAL
Veto-proof coalition protects from being blocked by Congress

Democratic Sen. Barbara Mikulski from Maryland added her support to the White House-backed Iran nuclear deal late Wednesday morning, giving President Obama the necessary votes to withstand any congressional veto.
In a tweet, Jonathan Weisman of the New York Times wrote: “Sen. Barbara Mikulski supports the #IranDeal … She makes a veto of the Iran deal bulletproof.”
And Matt Lee, a reporter with the Associated Press, tweeted: “Democrat Mikulski is 34th senator to support #Iran nuke deal, ensuring landmark Obama victory.”
Her stated support marks a huge win for Obama, who’s been on a public relations campaign for weeks to press the deal with Iran, at points calling on Americans to contact their congressional members and advocate similarly.
Not all see the deal as a boon for America. A few days ago, 200-plus former generals and admirals penned a letter to House and Senate leadership requesting they stand strong against the deal, and saying Iran won too many concessions at the expense of U.S. national security. Among their concerns: The deal gives Iran the right to delay inspectors at suspected nuclear sites up to 24 days; the deal grants up to $150 billion in sanctions’ relief the country could use for state-sponsored terrorism; and the deal requires inspectors ask, not demand, Tehran grant entry to suspected spots.
In short, critics charge the deal will give Iran the ability to get nuclear weapons in the coming months and years.
Sen. Marco Rubio, reacting to the latest news on Fox News, said the House and Senate will be taking a vote on the deal, regardless of Mikulski’s announcement.
He said: “I’m confident that the majority in the House and Senate are going to reject this deal.”
Rubio also reminded the nuke deal isn’t a treaty and as such, will be subject to change, or even obliteration, in an ensuing White House administration.
Secretary of State John Kerry, meanwhile, cheered the deal during a press conference in Philadelphia, referencing how some of the world’s top scientists gave their endorsement to the final product, affirming it would guarantee no-nukes for Tehran.
He then moved on to sell the deal as a great win for America.
“I will dispel some of the false information which is circulating about the deal,” he said.
He spoke of the “reality of how advanced Iran’s” nuclear capability has become, saying the nation’s already stockpiled enough enriched uranium to arms up to 12 bombs and installed 10,000 centrifuges.
“That my friends is where we already were when we began our negotiations,” Kerry said.
But sanctions weren’t slowing Tehran’s advance toward nuclear development, he said. So Obama stepped in to “find a way to not only stop but to throw into reverse Iran’s rapid expansion of its nuclear development program,” he said, using lofty rhetoric to describe what he painted as the president’s bold actions.
“We arrived at the good and effective deal that we have sought, and I ask you in the days ahead … consider the facts of what we achieved and judge for yourself the difference of where we were two years ago, where we are now and where we could be in the future,” Kerry said.

Iran will proceed to obtain Nuclear Bombs and threaten Israel, the Mideast and America. Remember they are willing to PERISH in pursuit of the Destruction of Israel and the Domination of the World the Koran Demands. Iran is a Suicide Bomber on the Nuclear level.
