Gulf countries hated Obama's Iran nuclear deal. Now they are rooting for Biden to restart it. Why?
1. They saw that it worked. To their surprise, Iran made good on its end.
2. They know a failure to get back into a deal sets off a cataclysmic nuclear weapons race in the region.

(2,333 posts)1. Criticism & Lies Are All The GOPQ Have...
Because 1) they are bereft of ideas except for cutting taxes for the rich and 2) they only want power for the sake of being in power and. Number 1 does nothing for 99% of the people theyve conned into voting for them, so they have to distract from both #s 1 & 2 by making policies that actually benefit people appear to look bad.
