Republished remarks by former US diplomat Yair Goldblatt attack Democratic Senator Jack Reed for calling the emerging US-Iran deal inferior to the 2015 JCPOA. Goldblatt calls Reed dishonest or incompetent and urges his removal, framing the Trump-era agreement as a 'wall against' an Iranian nuclear weapon.
Former US diplomat Yair Goldblatt's remarks, republished by the source 301 World Arab, attack Democratic Senator Jack Reed (Rhode Island) over his criticism of the emerging US-Iran deal. Reed had reportedly argued that the framework is not as good as the 2015 JCPOA. Goldblatt, a vocal supporter of the Trump administration's 'maximum pressure' policy, dismisses the JCPOA as a 'disaster' that provided a path to a nuclear weapon for Iran, while describing the current agreement as a 'wall against' an Iranian bomb. He calls for Reed to be removed ('Impeach Jack Reed!'). The post reflects the internal US political debate over the contours of the deal, a subject The Zioneer has covered extensively — including Senator Graham's demand for 'zero enrichment' and former officials in Israel criticizing the emerging framework. No new details on the deal itself are added by this post.
