TOWNHALL: Hundreds of Generals, Admirals Line Up Against Obama's Iran Deal

Katie Pavlich | Aug 28, 2015        

It was just three short days ago when President Obama was calling Republican opponents to his deal with Iran, the world's most prolific state-sponsor of terrorism, "crazies." Of course, Obama fails to acknowledge it isn't just "crazy" Republicans who oppose the deal, it's fellow Democrats and the majority of the American people. Now, 200 admirals and generals can be added to the opposition list. From the Washington Post:

A group of nearly 200 retired generals and admirals sent a letter to Congress on Wednesday urging lawmakers to reject the Iran nuclear agreement, which they say threatens national security.

The letter is the latest in a blizzard of missives petitioning Congress either to support or oppose the agreement with Iran, which would lift sanctions if Iran pared back its nuclear program. Letters have come from ad hoc groupings of rabbis, nuclear scientists, arms-control and nonproliferation experts — and now, retired senior military officers, many of whom have worked in the White House during various administrations dating to the 1980s.

“The agreement will enable Iran to become far more dangerous, render the Mideast still more unstable and introduce new threats to American interests as well as our allies,” the letter states.
