This entire document calls for diplomacy, engagement, talks & so forth with #Iran’s regime.
-This serves completely in the mullahs’ interests & they will take full advantage, as they have in the past 40 years.
-Reminds me of Obama’s failed approach.

“Iran has recently reduced its testing of ballistic missiles…”

The document calls for “careful crafting of pressure and incentives” for Iran to stop supporting terrorists such as Hezbollah, Hamas & the Islamic Jihad.
This is the ultimate kowtowing to the mullahs.
The answer lies in sanctions targeting the regime.

The document says U.S. sanctions “cause great hardship for the country’s population…”
It won’t tell you how #Iran’s mullahs have been destroying their economy for 39 years and counting.
80% of Iranians are living in poverty

The document pushes the idea of Iranians rallying around the flag in the face of U.S. pressure.
This is highly unlikely in #Iran under the mullahs’ rule.

Regime change in #Iran is the responsibility of the Iranian people.
No need for a single soldier to be sent to Iran, not a single bullet fired nor a single dollar.
All we want is for the int’ls community to not support the mullahs in any way & we'll take care of the rest.
