A Humiliating MOU with the IRGC? Fuggedaboutit

Thank God the so-called “Memorandum of Understanding” with Iran remains incomplete. It’s in America’s vital interest that it never be finalized. Here’s a clue: Even as negotiations continue with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps now doing business as the Iranian government, its vessels are laying more mines to control the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. forces were compelled to attack them in “self-defense.” If that’s how the IRGC behaves before it makes a deal to open that waterway and promises further negotiations, there is no reason to expect it will behave better afterwards. To the contrary, fourteen hundred years of “peace accords” with sharia-supremacists like Iran’s – and in particular this regime’s gambits – guarantees this deal will humiliate Donald Trump and America and that this “endless war” will continue on worse terms.  New Yorkers like Trump have one word for that prospect: Fuggedaboutit.   This is Frank Gaffney.
