Why Congress must stop the Iran deal

Avi Dichter:

In the security world, the two requirements for carrying out any attack are widely known: intention and means. The Iranian leadership has made clear on many occasions its intention to destroy the state of Israel. The framework deal between Iran and the U.S. State Department, agreed upon in Lausanne, Switzerland, will give the most dangerous regime on earth an easy path to acquire nuclear weapons.

Congress's most crucial foreign policy task of our time is to secure a better deal — one that dismantles and destroys Iran's military nuclear infrastructure, and therefore prevents a massive destabilization of the Middle East and entire world.

Iran's decades of exporting terror — through Hezbollah, Hamas or other means — has claimed many lives and served as a strategic but not existential threat to Israel and others. Iran acquiring nuclear weapons, however, represents an existential threat to Israel — the first in the Jewish state's history.

The countries that have agreed to the interim deal are not existentially threatened by Iran. And all of the countries that are most threatened by Iran — namely Israel, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Jordan — have not signed off on the agreement. This should give Congress pause and awaken a realization that for millions in the region, this is truly a question of life or death.
...

It is a bad deal that is likely to lead to a general Middle East war and the potential deaths of millions and with Iran's building of ICBM's it will also threaten the US and Europe.
