No pieces of paper ever bound the Islamic Republic
Comparing Presidential deals is futile. Trump’s two sheet memo, like Obama’s one-sixty sheet nuclear deal, is meant to stop Israel winning wars. Opinion
Assessment
This opinion piece argues that written agreements with Iran are inherently unreliable, framing both the Trump administration's approach and the Obama-era nuclear deal as attempts to constrain Israeli military success. The author dismisses the value of any paper-based arrangement with the Islamic Republic. The core claim is that Iran's nature makes all such deals futile, regardless of their length or authorship.
