-#Iran should first comply w/ JCPOA, stop supporting regional terrorism, stop ballistic missiles/sunset clauses
-raise human rights violations issues
-regime is on life support
-Europe calling for stronger position by Biden admin
The #Iran-backed Houthis (Ansarallah) should be designated as a terrorist group. It is a proxy of the IRGC Quds Force & trained by Hezbollah & Iran.

A terrorist organization is using humanitarian aid as leverage to get more money in.
The Biden administration can't say the #Iran-backed Houthis (Ansarallah) are not a terrorist organization, and then at the same time condemn their terrorist actions.

Houthis' missile & rocket attacks are basically directed by Iran.

 The move came a week after an Iranian diplomat was jailed for a bomb plot in Paris.

Assadollah Assad was convicted of being behind a plot to blow up a meeting in Paris of Iranian dissidents and sentenced to 20 years in prison.

#BREAKING
The Canadian gov & security agencies are reviewing an audio recording in which a man—identified by sources as #Iran's FM @JZarif—discusses the possibility that the destruction of Flight #PS752 was an intentional act, CBC News has learned.
cbc.ca/news/politics/…
"There are reasons that they will never be revealed," Zarif says in Farsi. "They won't tell us, nor anyone else, because if they do it will open some doors into the defence systems of the country that will not be in the interest of the nation to publicly say."
The individual says "these things are not going to be revealed easily" by the IRGC or those higher up in the government.

The IRGC is part of #Iran's military overseen by regime dictator @khamenei_ir. The IRGC is designated as a terrorist org by the U.S., Bahrain & Saudi Arabia.

 Iranian Intel Minister: #Iran has no intention to pursue nuclear weapons, but if you push a cat to the corner, its behavior might change.

Another episode in Iran's nuclear extortion.

More reason it is high #Time4FirmIranPolicy.
2)
 Periodic reminder:
Obama sold the world his flawed 2015 nuclear deal with #Iran's regime.

A deal he never took to Congress to be ratified as a treaty.

He wanted us to trust the regime's dictator.
3)
 After his walks with #Iran's chief apologist @JZarif during the nuclear talks, former U.S. secretary of state John Kerry also wanted us to rely on the fatwa (decree) of Iran's dictator.

Biden said the U.S. will not lift sanctions against Iran unless the country stops enriching uranium, continuing a standoff with #Iran's dictator has demanded that sanctions be lifted before the country returns to its nuclear deal obligations.
#JCPOA
cbsnews.com/news/biden-int…
"Will the U.S. lift sanctions first in order to get Iran back to the negotiating table?" O'Donnell asked.

"No," Mr. Biden responded.

"They have to stop enriching uranium first?" O'Donnell asked.

Mr. Biden nodded affirmatively.
Sen. Graham:
"If I were President Biden I would keep the sanctions on until #Iran changes its behavior. I would not want to go into an old deal with Iran because they've been up to no good for too long."
