Yeah. I have never seen bigger hypocrites than the US politicians (democrats and republicans) and media. The latter shits on Trump 24/7 because he slept with a pornstar but finds him presidential when he makes such threats.
Well, he's doing what God has asked all American Presidents to do. Spread Democracy.

Do you speak russian by any chance? Not meant to offend you but many speak Russian in Riga so if yes read this article and you will feel less sorry about poor russian business ventures of Deripaska and co :D

I do of course. I'm a supporter of Navalny, but these sanctions dont just hurt Russian oligarchs, major companies with thousands of employees are closing

"Iran wasn't racing to a weapon before the deal. There is no indication that I'm aware of that, if the deal no longer existed, that they would immediately turn to racing to create a nuclear weapon today." - Pompeo.

So for these guys, Iran deal was a bad deal because Iran was steps away from creating a nuclear weapon and relieving sanctions would have accelerated that (remember Bibi's cartoon?). Now Iran deal is still a bad deal that the US should no longer respect because there's no evidence suggesting that Iran is on the verge of creating a nuclear bomb. Not only that, such evidence didn't exist even before the deal.

So why bring back sanctions if it's all good? Nobody asked him this question?
