Senator To Kerry: 'You've Been Fleeced' -Secretary of State Tries to Sell Iran Deal to Congress
by Garth Kant
WASHINGTON – Senate Foreign Relations Chairman Bob Corker, R-Tenn., bluntly told Secretary of State John Kerry, “I believe you’ve been fleeced,” during the opening moments of a hearing on the nuclear deal with Iran.
In his opening statement Thursday, Corker exposed a glaring flaw in the Obama administration’s logic in selling the deal to Congress.
The senator observed how Kerry has recently claimed, over and over, that if Congress rejects this deal, the only option is war.
What’s next? Find out in “Showdown with Nuclear Iran.”
But just a few weeks ago Kerry had insisted that “no deal was better than a bad deal.”
Corker wondered, would that have meant war, too?
The chairman told Kerry he couldn’t have it both ways.
By putting the onus on Congress to pass a bad deal, the senator said, the Obama administration had made Iran no longer a pariah. But, it would make Congress the pariah, if it doesn’t approve a bad deal.
Corker also made the grave charge the administration had “crossed a new line” by allowing a state sponsor of terror to develop a nuclear program.
He called it inexplicable that the deal also removes:
- A missile embargo on Iran in eight years.
- A conventional arms ban in five years.
- A ban on missile testing immediately.
In his opening statement, a noticeably combative and defensive Kerry shot back against critics of the deal, claiming that any agreement in which Iran would have “completely capitulated “a “unicorn scenario” and a “fantasy.”
He also insisted, during the negotiations, he “never uttered the words anywhere, anytime” regarding inspections of Iran’s facilities, and claimed it was never part of the discussion.
