Trump Pushing War With Iran
- 5 years ago
Will the United States pursue military action against Iran? Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down.
"WASHINGTON — Tensions between the United States and Iran flared on Monday as Tehran said that it was likely to breach a key element of the 2015 international pact limiting its nuclear program while President Trump ordered another 1,000 troops to the Middle East and vowed again that Iran would not be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon.
The Pentagon’s announcement of the troop deployment came three days after attacks on two oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman that the administration has blamed on Iran. And it came hours after Iran said it was within days of violating a central element of the landmark 2015 agreement — intended to curb its ability to develop a nuclear weapon — unless European nations agreed to help it the impact of tough American economic sanctions."
