Ben Shapiro

Here is Ben Shapiro on Fox News making this case.

Let's take a listen.

I've said many times the president deciding to go into Iran and to hit nuclear facilities in Operation Midnight Hammer and then to go after Iran's ballistic missile facilities, nuclear facilities, Army, Navy and Air Force in this current operation was the signal act of political bravery, perhaps of my lifetime.

With that said, this MOU appears to be, just from the text, a disaster that does not achieve any of the actual signal goals that were set by the administration at the beginning.

There were effectively five goals that were set by the administration at the beginning.

One was ending the nuclear program, not just nuclear weapons,

No nuclear enrichment, zero enrichment.

That is not in the deal.

Ballistic missiles ended.

That is not in the deal.

And the president today suggested that ballistic missiles should actually continue to be held by the Iranians because the Saudis, our allies, also hold ballistic missiles.

Then you have the support of terrorism.

That is not part of the deal.

Anything that looks like an attempt to end terrorism.

A permanent opening of the Strait of Hormuz toll-free.

Not only is that not in the deal, the deal appears to have a provision allowing Iran and Oman to attempt to toll the straits after 60 days.

And then finally, the idea that Iran would receive some sort of sanctions relief after all of those things happen.

We are already seeing from day one relief in their ability to ship oil out of Iran.

In my opinion, the vice president of the United States, the chief negotiator on this particular project, has not well served the president.

We'll get to more on this in a moment.
