America Needs to Change Its Failed Iraq-Iran Policy
By Howard Dean - Posted on HuffingtonPost on July 18, 2014
The U.S. has much to be proud of in its post-World War II American foreign policy. Containing the Soviet Union ultimately limited damage to nascent democracies everywhere and resulted in a less polarized world. Supporting post-war European unity through the Marshall Plan set the stage for the spread of democracy on what had been the most violent continent on earth for a millennium. By changing our focus in Latin America from "geostrategic" intervention to more equal partnerships, many countries -- with obvious exceptions such as Cuba, Venezuela, and a few narco-compromised Central American governments -- are now thriving democracies.

The nuclear negotiation between Iran and the West is among the most important foreign policy issues facing the Obama Administration. In the U.S. government’s own assessment, Iran is the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism.

Since the P5+1 Joint Plan of Action on Iran’s Nuclear Program was signed in Geneva in November, the White House has encountered two difficult truths about the Iranian regime.
Rouhani’s manipulation of U.S. negotiators ended Tehran’s isolation and secured time in return for empty promises that furthered the regime’s nuclear objectives.
The Hidden Cost Of The Iranian Nuclear Deal

One's evaluation of the nuclear deal depends on how one understands the broader context of US-Iranian relations. There are potential pathways ahead that might not be all that bad. But I am pessimistic. I see the deal as a deceptively pleasant way station on the long and bloody road that is the American retreat from the Middle East.
