Leading Democratic presidential candidate, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, says that even with a nuclear deal Iran will still be “the world’s chief sponsor of terrorism,” Yahoo! politics reported Friday.
“But even if we do get such a deal, we will still have major problems from Iran,” she said. “They are the world’s chief sponsor of terrorism. They use proxies like Hezbollah to sow discord and to create insurgencies, to destabilize governments. They are taking more and more control of a number of nations in the region and they pose an existential threat to Israel.”“So even if we are successful on the nuclear front, we still are going to have to turn our attention to working with our partners to try to rein in and prevent this continuing Iranian aggressiveness,” Clinton said.
Various critics of the nuclear deal with Iran have raised similar concerns that the deal will only fuel Iran’s efforts to destabilize the Middle East. These critics include Foreign Policy editor David Rothkopf, former secretaries of state Henry Kissinger and George Shultz, former State Department official Aaron David Miller, and Washington Institute for Near East Policy fellows Mehdi Khalaji, Soner Cagaptay, and James Jeffrey.
Last week, the U.S. State Department released a report calling Iran a state sponsor of terrorism.
So why isn't Hillary speaking out directly against this insane deal?
Alas, that too is a rhetorical question.

Has it completely escaped your comprehension that a deal about nuclear weapons would, in fact, only be about nuclear weapons and would not be about terrorism?
The deal's not just about giving Iran nukes, it's about reducing sanctions and freeing up money frozen in bank accounts so that the Nazi terror state can sponsor even more terror, dips***.
Equally important - Hillary did NOT support the Green Revolution to overthrow the ayatollahs.
Does she now regret refusing that huge opportunity to get rid of an enemy of all humanity?
