Despite Iran’s bad behavior at home and abroad (including its support for Russia’s war on Ukraine), the Biden administration seems blissfully unconcerned about the threat posed by the Islamist regime to our national security interests.
Indeed, President Joe Biden himself called the cornerstone of U.S.-Iran policy—the Obama administration’s flawed Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action—“dead” in a video that emerged in late December. This was after Biden spent nearly two years trying to revive this nuclear deal with Iran.
Surely the Biden administration is aware of Iran’s dogged progress toward developing a nuclear weapon and the incredible gravity of the situation.
[Oh, they’re aware of it, but they don’t want the US involved in it. The JCPOA was Barack Obama’s attempt to withdraw American influence from the gulf, part of the overall progressive obsessions with “colonization” and associated evils of cultural imperialism. That is what animates the Biden team too.
And don’t call us Shirley. — Ed]
