EU Nations Pushing Trump on Iran
EU countries are attempting to push President Trump on Iran, even as an Iranian ship arrived in a port in Venezuela to further buttress their influence in our hemisphere. Read on to learn why it is more important than ever to pray for President Trump. -Mat
Increasingly, Iran behaves like an errant child. Uncorrected for its actions, the child continues pushing the boundaries until no boundaries remain.
Somehow, despite getting the same reaction every time, the EU continues to pacify the errant child. And the spoiled mullahs in Iran wield some very dangerous toys.
As you may recall, Europe cheered former President Obama's toothless Iran deal in which the radical mullah-led state essentially "pinky promised" not to make nuclear weapons in exchange for billions of hard-earned U.S. taxpayer dollars.
Those same countries fought President Trump's intentions to reimpose sanctions upon Iran. Even as recently as September, France, Germany and Britain insisted the U.S. was wrong to try to reimpose sanctions on Iran after it became clear that Iran had once again violated peace agreements.
Iran, of course, responded the way Iran always responds – with more overt violations.
Just three months after the European nations chastised President Trump for taking measures designed to keep Iran from going nuclear, Britain, France and Spain now find themselves in the awkward position of chastising Iran for doing exactly what President Trump said Iran would do – BUILD NUCLEAR WEAPONS.
In a move designed to take a jab at President Trump and take advantage of the feckless EU, Iran has announced its intention to install THREE new nuclear centrifuges.
Additionally, Iran's parliament approved increasing uranium enrichment by a full 20% if the EU fails to provide relief from Trump's sanctions.
But instead of admitting they were wrong, and that Trump was right, the EU nations are once again appeasing the Iranian mullahs.
Last week, the same three EU nations which had recently condemned President Trump for being too harsh on Iran issued a watered-down "warning" of sorts to the Muslim nation.
In a joint letter issued December 7, the three EU nations politely reminded Iran that they should start abiding by the terms of their deal.
Stating that the Obama Iran deal is "the best, and currently the only, way to monitor and constrain Iran's nuclear programme," the three EU countries politely asked Iran to knock it off so that the world could return in full to the Iran Deal.
But Iran has NEVER fulfilled their part of the Iran Deal – not while Obama was in office and certainly not under President Trump. It is inconceivable that Iran will ever abide by the agreement.

Yet the pressure is on, nonetheless. The EU nations are pressing their case and seeking ways to force the U.S. back into the disastrous deal.
Iran has made no bones about its belief that Israel is the "Little Satan" and America the "Great Satan," both of which the Muslim country believes should be wiped off the map of the world.
For such an adversarial country, the only path to peace is through superior strength. America MUST NOT back down or cave on Iran sanctions. For if we do, both Israel and America will be in great danger.
Iran is planting their malign influence closer to America...
This week, an Iranian ship made port in Venezuela where a long-standing alliance between the Chavez/Maduro government and the Iranian regime is being further cemented.
Again, I am reminded of the dream I had just before Thanksgiving. I believe that dream was an instruction from the Lord to pray for President Trump.
And with each day that has passed since, the news grows more disturbing.
The Bible instructs us to pray for our leaders.
I hope you will join me in signing this personal letter of prayer and support, which will be delivered directly to President Trump.
I hope, too, that you will consider making a tax-deductible year-end donation to Christians in Defense of Israel. Our vital work is ONLY possible due to the generosity of Israel-loving supporters like you.
