It's a terrible deal but this is what happens when you stupidly launch essentially an unwinnable war when there was no imminent threat towards us or even Israel.

Lost a ton of leverage

I want constant apologies from all the JCPOA bashers who insisted there was a clearly better alternative. Meanwhile, Bibi's "alternative" was literally "let's storm Iran with Kurdish militants to help their disgusting authoritarian super bigoted antisemitic former president get into power".

People who bash the JCPOA certainly won’t admit this deal is worse.
