So Long to the Iran Deal

Tillerson had been engaged in a months-long defense of the Iran nuclear deal that finally reached an impasse when he took Europe's side in debates over the agreement.

When you add his backing of the Iran deal, widespread criticism of his management style, and the fact that he is said to have called his boss a moron, it's a wonder Tillerson made it this far.

The Iran deal may not last much longer than Tillerson.

In January, he said he was waiving sanctions on Iran for the last time, barring alterations to the deal that strengthened America's position.

A longtime critic of both Barack Obama's Iran policy and the Iranian regime's international terrorism and domestic repression, Pompeo will give Iran's rulers plenty of reasons to worry.

The protests and riots that broke out throughout Iran at the end of last year exemplified the regime's weakening grip.

We are already in a conflict with Iran, one that Iran has been winning.
