Vladimir Putin, the man who helped Iran create its nuclear program, was a fan of the deal.
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad was also an admirer, confident that Iran would continue its "Just causes" after the deal was wrapped up.
The Iran deal remained Obama's predominant concern during his second term, even as Tehran grappled with a contracting economy and inflation brought on, in part, by international sanctions that had been set up over a decade.
"This deal shuts off the type of covert program Iran has pursued in the past." -President Obama #IranDeal.
What did we get for abandoning our principles and prostrating ourselves to an authoritarian terror state? Well, the Obama administration found a way to empower Iran so it could be a bulwark against the regional power of Israel - which some, including myself, believe was the driving reason for such a deal in the first place.
Rather than setting firm limits, the deal gave Iran cover and time to continue its efforts, making war with Israel more of an inevitability.
Though they have yet to coalesce around a suitable talking point, some have already argued that the deal should stay in place because Iran lies.
