A Debate on the Iran Deal

Curious about the nuclear deal with Iran? Listen to both sides, as my colleague and friend, Nathan Gonzalez, debates Robert Kaufman on the merits of the final agreement at the following link: Obama says Iran deal solves one problem: ‘Iran getting the nuclear bomb’.

As for my thoughts, there is no doubt in my mind that this is a deal that Reagan would have signed. Both conservatives and liberals tend to ignore Reagan’s leadership and influence on the pursuit of diplomatic solutions to potential nuclear crises. Many of the conservatives opposing this deal hypocritically credit Reagan for ending the Cold War. You simply can’t have it both ways.
