Meanwhile In Vienna. . .
While the eyes of the world are fixated on Ukraine, there's growing concern over another major Biden foreign policy disaster in the making.
As you know, the Biden/Harris Administration is desperately trying to rejoin the 2015 Obama/Biden nuclear deal with Iran. That deal would lift sanctions on Iran's radical regime in exchange for miniscule restraints on Iran's nuclear weapons program. It was a terrible idea in 2015 and it's a terrible idea now.
But Iran's key ally in the negotiations is . . . Russia. And the nuclear negotiations in Vienna have been scrambled since Putin's invasion of Ukraine. The ayatollah now believes he holds tremendous leverage in the talks.
According to the Washington Post, "Iran's chief negotiator returned to Vienna from a visit to Tehran over the weekend with hardened demands." In addition to massive sanctions relief, the Wall Street Journal reports that Iran is also demanding that a U.N. investigation into illicit nuclear materials discovered in Iran be shutdown.
Predictably, there are additional reports that the Biden Administration is folding like a cheap suit.
While we pray for the peace of Jerusalem, our Israeli allies have learned the hard lessons of history – to trust the threats of your enemies more than promises of your allies.
