BY:RAY  takeyh september 22,2017 resident  Donald Trump  has sensibly insisted that the  Iran nuclear deal —formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action—has to be revised. The reaction in some quarters, mainly among many of the former  Obama administration  officials who negotiated this bad deal, has been horror. Unfortunately, the media have uncritically swallowed many of the false assumptions and naive arguments of the deal’s supporters, and the elite consensus is that the agreement must be preserved lest the White House bumble us into a crisis—or worse, another war in the  Middle East.

By Heshmat Alavi 18 September 2017 There is a new understanding in Washington over how US President  Donald Trump , set to deliver his first United Nations General Assembly speech tomorrow, can tackle the Iran challenge. It would be wrong to view the conglomerate of  Iran -created crises through a single periscope focusing exclusively on the  nuclear  dilemma. Iran’s meddling in states across the Middle East, its support for terrorists groups including the likes of the Lebanese Hezbollah, the continuous pursuit of ballistic missiles and domestic  human rights violations  are also serious concerns.
