Shah accelerated the program after the iran/iraq war in the 1980s, a war in which saddam hussein used chemical weapons to brutal effect. and irans nuclear program advanced steadily through the 1990s, despite unilateral u.s. sanctions. when the bush administration took office iran had no centrifuges. the machines necessary to produce material for a bomb that was spinning to enrich uranium. but despite repeated warnings from the united states government, by the time i talk office iran had installe...

They warned that iran would receive a windfall to support terrorism. the critics were wrong. the progress of irans nuclear program was halted. for the first time in a decade. its stockpile of dangerous materials was reduced. the deployment of its advanced centrifuges was stopped. inspections did increase. there was no flood of money into iran. and the architecture of the international sanctions remained in place. in fact the interim deal worked so well that the same people who criticized it so f...

Spent. today iraq remains gripped by sectarian conflict and the emergence of al qaeda in iraq has now evolved into isil. ironically, the single greatest beneficiary in the region of that war was the islamic republic of iran which saw its strategic position strengthened by the removal of its long-standing enemy, saddam hussein. i raise this recent history because now more than ever we need clear thinking in our foreign policy. and i raise this history because it bears directly on how we respond t...

Security and promote human progress. we now have the opportunity to build on that progress. is weve built a coalition and held it together. through sanctions and negotiations and now we have before us a solution that prevents iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon without resorting to war. as americans, we should be proud of this achievement. and as members of congress reflect on their pending decision, i urge them to set aside political concerns, shut out the noise, consider the stakes involved w...

But soon. and here is the irony. as i said before, military action would be far less effective than this deal in preventing iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. that is not just my talk. analyst suggest rejection would set back irans nuclear program by a few years which is a fraction of the limitations imposed by this deal. it would likely guarantee inspectors are kicked out of iran. it is probably it would drive irans program deeper underground. it would certainly destroy the international uni...

Concerns from our allies over the nuclear agreement. meantime irans president now says the deal achieves his countrys goals since it recognizes irans are right tone rich uranium. but critics in their opportunitiry say it sets to many limitations. the white house is trying to sell the deal to congress. the republican congress is not going to take the sale, no matter. the official said president obama held meetings with more than 80 lawmakerses and set to give a speech on the deal in american univ...

Just reinvest in the oil fields in order to get the oil production up. im not saying theyre going to spend it all there and theyre not going to use that money to be aggressive in the region but what i am saying is the united states knows how to do something about iranian aggression. what we havent been able to do is to scale back the nuclear program. this is a nuclear deal intended to -- >> the money -- what have they done what have we done to make them back off on their aggression? not one sing...

Turning this economy around creating vitality getting more jobs and higher wages and i know what to do. ive put a program out specifically to turn the economy around and ive had experience with it including cutting taxes as governor of virginia but the difference is the governors and former governors that are in this race dont have foreign policy experience like i do. and i think that combination is -- sooner or later people are going to turn to the question of lets stop all the loud noise and l...

That they bring a credible military capability to the fight but also they are concerned also about whats playing out in this agreement with iran which is a whole different topic for another day. we have a lot on our plate. there is going to be some brinksmanship as we deliver as the u.s. tries to lead diplomatically. >> next week there are two hearings one on the senate foreign relations committee and one in the banking committee looking at the implications of the sanctions being lifted for iran...
