@NYTimesCohen first sentence on the #IranNuclearDeal as a “deal that has worked” is entirely false.
Look at the destruction in Syria & Yemen brought about by #Iran’s proxies; the meddling in Lebanon by Hezbollah & in Iraq by Tehran’s Shiite militias.

@NYTimesCohen claims Trump’s #IranDealWithdrawal decision will raise “risk of igniting the Middle East.”
Reminder: #Iran has already ignited the Middle East
Over 500,000 dead in Syria
Yemen in ruins due to Houthis’ adventurism
Iraq in mayhem due to Tehran’s Shiite militias

@NYTimesCohen talks of the JCPOA weakening #Iran’s “hardliners.”
Reminder: #IranDeal actually green-lighted Tehran to press the gas pedal on domestic crackdown, foreign meddling, supporting terrorism & advancing ballistic missiles (& very possibly its nuclear weapons drive).

@NYTimesCohen claims the #IranDeal placed a “ring around Iran’s nuclear program…”
Tehran openly violated the JCPOA on different counts. I provide evidence on tweets 4-6 in this thread:

@NYTimesCohen claims the #IranDeal “was not about delivering ‘peace’”
The JCPOA’s own preface reads:
“…full implementation of this JCPOA will positively contribute to regional and international peace and security.”

@NYTimesCohen accuses Trump of single handedly fast-forwarding a nuclear arms race in the Middle East.
Q: Hasn’t #Iran’s regime constantly claimed of never seeking a nuclear weapon before or after the JCPOA? So, is Cohen aware of something we are not?

@NYTimesCohen questions Trump’s alternatives, lashing at @AmbJohnBolton and raising the issue of “regime change.”
Rest assured this is Cohen’s main concern or else he would never have even mentioned such a sensitive subject.

@NYTimesCohen talks of the Iranian people being a “proud nation used to working around the cost of confrontation with the U.S.”
- Stop trying to portray an image of the Iranian people rallying around the flag.

- Over 50 million Iranians are living in poverty, according to regime outlets.

- Iranian officials themselves have admitted only 4% of the populace actually support this regime.

@NYTimesCohen sinks to a new low of thumping his chest for a regime he agrees has a “hideous human rights record” & then brags by saying “the 39-year-old Islamic Republic is resilient.”
Even #Iran's own officials are too worried now to use such repulsive terms.
Shame.

@NYTimesCohen asks:
“Do you change Iran by isolating it or by engaging it step by step?”
Well, the likes of you in the pro-#Iran appeasement camp have tried to engage Tehran “step by step” for 40 years, failing miserably.
Step aside & leave the job to the capable.

@NYTimesCohen again claims the JCPOA “kept Iran much further from the bomb...”
Again, with or without the #IranDeal, hadn’t Tehran vowed it has never, nor will, pursue a nuclear bomb? So why is Cohen claiming without the JCPOA #Iran will race towards the bomb?
Interesting.

As a final thought, in this piece @NYTimesCohen has resorted to very low-class language against U.S. President Donald Trump.
That’s nothing but yellow “journalism.”
(Well, if one could even use the term “journalism” here.)
