So, imagine how it would look like after. Why? Because Iran has not been respecting it, as simple as that. Perhaps there is a reason why it takes a risk-taker in politics, as crazy as Mr. Trump, to decide to get out of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, let\u2019s also recall that two countries of the co-signers\nof the agreement of Obama-Biden with Iran are China and Russia:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/3f7f61d4-ea05-4bfd-948f-3ee93c7f3c3a\">https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/3f7f61d4-ea05-4bfd-948f-3ee93c7f3c3a<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Can someone tell Bambi how we can trust China\u2026 or even\nRussia?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are talking about the same Russia already heavily involved in the Syrian war, along with Iran, Assad\u2019s regime, and Hezbollah\u2026 Yes, this same Russia, even if perhaps it could\/would know how to honour a deal once it is signed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are talking about that same China and what it is\ncurrently doing to Taiwan:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/investigates\/special-report\/hongkong-taiwan-military\/\">https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/investigates\/special-report\/hongkong-taiwan-military\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In life, sadly yet realistically, only tough means can\nstop those who do not care about others\u2019 safety and well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Iran is determined to have its nuclear weapons, and\nnothing will stop it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In an ideal romanticized world, Bambi would have preferred not to see any country having nuclear weapons (i.e., including Israel, of course). It would be fair to all. However, this is not how our world works to cite our own Mr. Trudeau in a virtual address to the UN General Assembly on September 25, 2020 and with two Russian pranksters (for the record, see further below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what is the solution then? Or is there any? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whatever will happen, Bambi fears that it is Lebanon that would be paying the price\u2026 once again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-bambi-039-s-afkar\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"BQ805fDyN1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/bambisafkar.ca\/index.php\/2020\/11\/25\/are-mr-biden-mr-blinken-more-naive-about-iran-than-our-idealistic-mr-trudeau\/\">Are Mr. Biden &#038; Mr. Blinken more na\u00efve about Iran than our idealistic Mr. Trudeau?<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Are Mr. Biden &#038; Mr. Blinken more na\u00efve about Iran than our idealistic Mr. Trudeau?&#8221; &#8212; Bambi&#039;s Afkar\" src=\"http:\/\/bambisafkar.ca\/index.php\/2020\/11\/25\/are-mr-biden-mr-blinken-more-naive-about-iran-than-our-idealistic-mr-trudeau\/embed\/#?secret=BQ805fDyN1\" data-secret=\"BQ805fDyN1\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to the Financial Times,\u201cIran nuclear deal signatories push for US return once Biden takes office.
