A New 'Guardian' Report Shows Just How Far Team Trump Would Go to Discredit the Iran Deal

https://trib.al/BXP4APG

The alleged plan was to discredit the agreement, which the president has called the “worst deal ever,” by digging up dirt on Ben Rhodes, one of President Obama’s national security advisers, and Colin Kahl, who was Vice President Biden’s national security adviser. Investigators were supposedly told to look at their personal lives and any involvement with Iran-friendly lobbyists. They were also told to contact journalists who supported the deal to see if Rhodes or Kahl told them any sensitive information.

Israel sees Iran as a threat

Saudi Arabia sees Iran as a theological rival
