WFB: While the Iranian regime is shaken by a protest movement fueled by those who’ve never known a life other than that controlled by the mullahs and their henchmen in the Revolutionary Guard, it is worth reflecting on the wrongheadedness and abject stupidity of the advocates for normalization with this grotesque regime.
The late, great Irving Kristol once quipped that a neoconservative is a liberal who has been mugged by reality. It looks like President Joe Biden and the normalization crowd just ran into the Ayatollah in a dark alley and had to empty their pockets.
How else to explain the recent change in tone from the administration and its allies? White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters Monday, “The door for diplomacy will always remain open, but as of now we don’t see a deal coming together anytime soon.” Those remarks followed Iran envoy Robert Malley’s indication that a return to the 2015 nuclear deal is not on the agenda right now. more
Iran…I ran so far away…
In truth, the ayatollahs no longer need to deal with the US to get what they want. Valerie Jarret must be feeling both fulfilled and superfluous.
If a conservative is a liberal who’s been mugged, a liberal is a conservative who’s been arrested. A Libertarian, of course, is a liberal who uses drugs.
