The President said he is pulling the USA out of the Iran Nuke deal. You think the rest of Europe will follow suit?

If we don't stop Iran they are getting nukes. They have already said they will wipe Israel off the map. They are either going to build them themselves or the U.S. will give it them. If the U.S. does give Iran Nukes they might not like the delivery method. But they are getting nukes one way or another.

COL Private RallyPoint Member probably not sir in regards that the European union has been trying to keep us in I think they might try to make their own deals with Iran that being said I'm not sure if pulling out of this agreement right here right now was a good I sea in the grand scheme of things

I'm not too worried about Iran getting nukes. Israel will blow them off the face of the earth without a second thought.

They have no choice because Iran as an Oil Power has to do a large business in dollars and we control that currency. Also we are the worlds largest economy so faced with losing the United States to losing a country with a economy the size of Maryland.............they will go with the U.S. each time. Same deal with China and Russia. Additionally, the Iranian currency has dropped like 50-60% since Obama left office, so Boeing, Airbus, etc were about to cancel the previous deals setup. The currency did not fall in value because of sanctions because Obama lifted sanctions............it fell due to incompetent economic management due to the Mullahs in Iran. Russians and Chinese are cancelling previous contracts as well because they do not want the prices negotiated when the Currency was worth 40-50% more. Iran is very, very Economically vunerable now and the Mullahs have to be freaking out over this internally and what to do to reverse it partially or fully because they cannot take another full press with sanctions at this point.

I think Iran will collapse internally if Trump has two terms. I don't see the regime in Iran lasting for another 8 years or the population of Iran putting up with this BS too much longer. They are on the rocks once we slap the sanctions back on because they stupidly spent all of the money Obama floated them already.

If they're wise they will. Just need to keep a close eye on Iran.

What Europe does is their own affair - they have bigger issues then this as there has been serious blowbacks to their current strategies (Brexit, 3 member nations either already bankrupt or on the verge of it (Greece, Spain, Portugal), Italy grumbling about the refugee crisis and their economy slowly tanking due to the euro, and nearly all the former eastern bloc members telling Berlin to pound sand) - this deal was a disaster from the start, it is why 44 did not bring it to congress for ratification as he knew it would not pass with many members of his own party publicly stating they would vote no to it (Schumer and Pelosi to name two prominent party leaders) - they may be attacking the current POTUS for withdrawing from it - but the internet, like pepperige farm, remembers. will they develop nukes - not if Israel has a say in it - and Israel will have a say - make no mistake, they are not like the US, when faced with a threat, if the US does not intervene, they will take care of it and to hell with world opinion. They do not hem and haw nor do they have such a polarized populace.

I'm hoping this action is to re-negotiate the deal.

I think, who cares what everyone else does. I like that the POTUS is putting America first and to hell with everyone else. America has been tossing handouts to the world for far too long and it is about time we start putting our collective foot down.

I have to disagree Colonel, simply because Israel will not allow it. They're content for now to let us take the lead on handling it, but the first moment they think the Iranians are getting close to viability, they'll pre-empt. IMO, of course.
