So this one thing that's been bugging me about the Iran deal rhetoric (ok, a LOT has bugged me, but for now, this one piece)

-
@emptywheel@BalkansBohemia That's an interesting argument, though I struggle to decouple the two in my own reasoning. -
@OKnox And I think fears of hegemony go back to 1976 when we swapped Iran for KSA.@BalkansBohemia -
If you see Iran as evil, sure, oppose any deal. But on policy debate, you have to m measure rhetoric to reason/facts.
@OKnox@emptywheel -
@BalkansBohemia But I don't even believe these people are motivated by evil. They've dealt w/both Iran and Saddam in lifetimes.@OKnox -
@emptywheel@OKnox I'm frankly amazed we're having as healthy a debate as we have had on this. Let alone that it's close to 40 in Senate -
@BalkansBohemia I think deal opponents started w/a well-earned credibility gap bc of Iraq@OKnox
