Synopsis
In his new book “Obamabomb: A Dangerous and Growing National Security Fraud,” former CIA analyst Fred Fleitz provides an in-depth analysis of the dangers of the nuclear deal with Iran and how the threats it poses to U.S. national security are growing. Fleitz discusses the dishonest campaign by Obama officials to prevent Congress from rejecting the agreement, what is really in the nuclear deal, and how Obama officials are trying to make even more concessions to Iran because Iranian officials claim the deal was not generous enough to Iran. Although Fleitz believes the nuclear deal is so flawed that it should be torn up by the next president on his or her first day in office, “Obamabomb” has recommendations on how the agreement might be renegotiated, as presumptive Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has pledged to do as president. He also includes recommendations for additional sanctions against Iran that he recommends presumptive Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton implement if she wins the 2016 election.

Defusing the Ticking "ObamaBomb"

"ObamaBomb: A Dangerous and Growing National Security Fraud" is former CIA Analyst Fred Fleitz's scathing condemnation of what he called an "aberration by one of America's worst and most incompetent presidents." Written for the one-year anniversary of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action on July 14 and presented by the author inWashington, D.C. for the Endowment for Middle East Truth and the HeritageFoundation, this book thoroughly validates that assessment.
. . . The book theorized that the JCPOA's 15-year lifespan"at best will leave Iran with an industrial-scale nuclear program in 10-15 years with the blessing of the international community." In Fleitz's opinion, it is more likely that Iran will exploit the deal's terms to improve uranium enrichment with advanced centrifuges and produce plutonium at the Arakheavy water reactor. "Iran will use the provisions of the nuclear agreement ... to significantly increase its capability to produce greateramounts of weapons-grade nuclear fuel in a much shorter time," he said.
. . . Concurring with public speculation by former ObamaSecretary of Defense and CIA Director Leon Panetta, Fleitz wrote that the"Obama Administration primarily pursued this agreement, not to stop orslow Iran's nuclear program. Obama has misguided assumptions that it would somehow bring Iran into the community of nations, help make it a partner to fight the terrorist group ISIS and even promote peace and stability in the Middle East." It is impossible to believe that - according to a quip by national security expert Richard Perle - the JCPOA "is somehow going tomagically transform an Iranian regime that regards the United States as thegreat Satan."
. . . The author's condemnation of the JCPOA came with a clear policy proposal: The "most intellectually honest way for a futureU.S. president to deal with the nuclear agreement with Iran is to tear it up on his or her first day in office." As with Iranian plutonium production, he demanded that the next U.S. leader makes it "clear to Iran: Stop all uranium enrichment and uranium enrichment research or we will stop it for you." For real Iranian nuclear nonproliferation including any-time, any-place surprise inspections, he advised the United States to implement stalwart sanctions and work with the nations of Israel and Saudi Arabia todevelop a plan to destroy the Iranian nuclear program with airstrikes.
. . . Despite Nobel Peace Prize laureate Obama's fantasies, Fleitz has conclusively shown the necessity of replacing with confrontationwhat he said at the Heritage Foundation is a policy that can only be described as appeasement.

July 14, 2016 was the one-year anniversary of the nuclear agreement with Iran. In his new book, Obamabomb: A Dangerous and Growing National Security Threat, Fred Fleitz, of the Center for Security Policy detailed analysis of the dangers this agreement continues to pose to U.S. and international security, including: why the threat from Iran's nuclear weapons program is growing despite the JCPOA; how the nuclear agreement gave Iran a pass on its nuclear weapons work and led the IAEA to dumb down its reports on the Iranian nuclear program; how the agreement has made Iran a greater regional and international threat; and how the Obama administration is trying to grant further concessions to Iran.
Fleitz's detailed analysis of this agreement not only proves the growing danger that the agreement poses to U.S. national security. For Fleitz it is clear: the nuclear deal is so dangerous that the next president should tear it and re-negotiate another nuclear pact: Iran must cease all uranium enrichment and its research. Iran must not have a heavy-water reactor or a plant to produce heavy-water. Iran must robust real and effective verification and inspections; Iran must curtail and agree to limitations on its ballistic missile program. Iran must agree to end its meddling in regional conflicts and sponsorship of international terror.
