On a note, especially for European governments:
Chamberlain appeased Hitler. That did not end well.
Stop your appeasement of Iran’s genocidal mullahs & join the U.S.’ maximum pressure policy.
This is the only language Tehran understands & it's for your own good.

My thoughts:
The regime in Iran will forever be grateful of the Obama/Biden administration for the highly flawed 2015 nuclear deal.
As an Iranian, I will never forget those horrible eight years.

Much of that money fueled global terrorism
