Apparently, Israel's existing nukes aren't the beginning of the "nuclear arms race" Trump is warning about, but Iran's non-existing nukes are somehow the danger. #NoSense #IranDeal

Trump is making a huge blunder in pulling out of the Iran deal, and he doesn’t even know why: https://t.co/T6gWNMobBd pic.twitter.com/OPyIBoW7zd

My take, in brief: “President Trump has just made the most destructive decision of his administration. With an avalanche of lies about the agreement, he rejected the global deal that stopped Iran from getting a bomb….” 1/2 https://t.co/B0zueZ44XB

Trump's new ambassador to Germany has tweeted that German companies should stop doing business in Iran now.
Our allies – including Germany – are upholding the deal. The arrogance displayed by us telling private German businesses what to do based on OUR solo decisions is amazing.
