Justa Thinking Today…
We have been hearing over the years about how, “Iran has gone rogue!”
The term has now been reapplied and the western media is screaming, “Rogue Iran!” Mainly because of said desire to obtain NUKES…
In an appeal for fairness to Iran about Nukes:
I don’t think it logical to express either by emotions and or propaganda that “Iran has gone rogue” without any conditions laid out to start with. Iran, after innumerable dialogues with so called “Western Partners”, became part of what is called the JCPOA (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action) and, according to UN Inspectorates who by the way, were responsible for monitoring said implementation of the JCPOA, Iran faithfully served the agreement and respected what it signed under the JCPOA. The JCPOA is/was made up of:
- China. Wang Yi, Foreign Minister.
- France. Laurent Fabius, Foreign Minister.
- Germany. Frank-Walter Steinmeier, Minister of Foreign Affairs.
- European Union. Federica Mogherini, High Representative.
- Iran. Mohammad Javad Zarif, Minister of Foreign Affairs.
- Russia. …
- United Kingdom. …
- United States.
The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA; Persian: برنامه جامع اقدام مشترک, romanized: barnāmeye jāme’e eqdāme moshtarak (برجام, BARJAM)), known commonly as the Iran nuclear deal or Iran deal, is an agreement on the Iranian nuclear program reached in Vienna on July 14, 2015, between Iran and the P5+1 (the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council—China, France, Russia, United Kingdom, United States—plus Germany) together with the European Union.

Incidentally, it is also not correct, as is commonly misconceived, to express that the JCPOA was “never signed”. It was recognized under a UN Resolution and so was implemented with the full force of all approved International laws. All members acknowledge this except the USA. (That should tell you something.)
The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) is a detailed, 159-page agreement with five annexes reached by Iran and the P5+1 (China France, Germany, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States) on July 14, 2015. The nuclear deal was endorsed by UN Security Council Resolution 2231, adopted on July 20, 2015. Iran’s compliance with the nuclear-related provisions of the JCPOA will be verified by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) according to certain requirements set forth in the agreement.

The USA then as the only one of the group to do so, at what seems to be at first a pathetic personal whim, rather than any reason for, unilaterally decided to withdraw from the agreement know as the JCPOA and prevented its European “Allies” from continuing with Iran’s JCPOA anti-nuclear commitments after US withdrew for no reason. The JCPOA was a perfectly sound agreement which was exactly fulfilling its purpose of stymieing and actually controlling Iran’s alleged move towards a nuclear weapon capability…
It was not Iran who withdrew. It was not Iran who did not comply. It was not Iran who put pressure on others to get out of the JCPOA. Iran was and really, still is in compliance and so are the other members, except the USA…
Though the rest soon could be history also. Due to extreme pressure from the US…
It is not Iran:
So with all I said in the above paragraphs:
It would it be way more accurate to say that Iran is being coerced into actions that belie the truth of the situation. This situation has also coerced Europe to bend in ways that are extremely against their wishes and what they know as truth…
Therefore to state in propagandized lies that Iran is “Going Rogue” could be simply because for Iran there are no other paths that have been left open for them. Again therefore, In all candor, that path might be the entire “holy grail” that is desired by the USA so as to provide a pretext for more disorganization and degradation in the Middle east…
Therefore, misinformation is ramped up again and again. Everything I stated above can be verified by internet searching and doing some research yourselves. I gave a link to Wikipedia and the Arms Control Association (ACA) website above. This gives the basic ground work for you to familiarize yourself with this good agreement that was tragically dropped by the USA for purposes of only those who actually did it and know and benefit from doing it…
If anyone has gone rogue it is the USA…
And the US seems to be proud of it!
