Well alot of your farmers killed themself because of her tariffs on american agricultural products into the EU.

They were already under pressure fro China when Merkel pulled that move.

As i said, USA without its allies is nothing in the 21st century and you admitted that youself. USA alone lacks the power to act against China, Russia and Iran ect.

We look forward to reopen betetr relations once Biden is president.

How oes your system work btw? When you have election and Trump is voted out, do you have security mechanisms that would prevent Trump from doing something dumb until power is handed over to next president?

Trump hates Merkel and Germany and we fear he would do something to get revenge.

No matter how relevant you try to make her.

Do you have security systems in charge that would stop Trump for example from ordering a terror attack against Germany?

The US has suffered a humiliating defeat at the United Nations as its proposal to extend an arms embargo on Iran won support from only the Dominican Republic at the security council vote. The US resolution was never likely to be passed in the face of Russian and Chinese opposition. It was proposed as a ploy by the Trump administration to open the way to more drastic action against Iran.
US sees embarrassing UN defeat over Iran arms embargo proposal | World news | The Guardian

Considering how Donald Trump trashed the Iran nuclear deal which had the support of America's European allies as well as competing rivals in international diplomacy, is it any wonder, with all his badmouthing money-scrounging off NATO countries into the bargain, that when he wants support from traditional friends of the USA to double down on Iran to please the Israelis, there is no one to support him in Europe anymore. Then Pompeo puts himself into his boss' good books by berating the usual allies. Europeans have had their fill from this outfit running American foreign policy these days. Pompeo can do us all a favor by shutting up.

okay - Kindergarten of the righties from both continents again...


"We are stronger" - "no we are stronger and will hit your face" - "before you can manage that we wil hit you twice!And harder!"

my respect for right wingers drops lower and lower....

to the facts: Trump is damaging the alliance deeply. And that´s good for *tusch* : nobody! May be exept Russia and China....
 
“ humiliating defeat at the United Nations”

Ah , no.

The rest of the world is bought and paid for, DJT45 ain’t.

The UN is a paper tiger, worthless w/o US tax dollars.

Pull all US funds, let them die! The UN is worthless.
 
Teheran seem to have followed the deal until US pulled out, when they thought "well, what's the point then". The deal was always about giving Iran an out, their nuclear program had been "a year away from the bomb" for long over a decade, and was costing way too much. So they were pretty glad to have an excuse to abandon it. But as soon as the US left the deal Iran went straight back into their nuclear program, that once again is "a year away from the bomb" and who knows what that actually means. But if Iran becomes a nuclear power, it's all on the Trump administration.

And if the rumors about Pakistani nulcear scientists being in Saudi Arabia is true, then genie is already out of the bottle, and the nuclear race in the Middle East has begun.
 
Well this latest round of sanctions is suspiciously times. A bit of 'let's look tough for the base' ahead of elections? Maybe even stir up a little foreign conflict to distract?

A **** deal that was never going to be honored by the Iranian Mullah's, or enforced by the no backbone Europeans.

Who told you that, I wonder. All the Europeans who signed the Iran deal with the USA believe it to be a good plan. Only the Israelis and Donald Trump, perhaps with the advice of Jared Kushner, thought it is a bad deal and American conservatives can be counted upon to repeat the Trump/Israeli line. Just as you are doing.

The Sunni Arab states which you mention are each and every one cruel, oppressive, autocracies run by families who own countries, the natural resources, wealth, and people. They are unspeakable regimes with which successive American and English governments like to do business for a share of the oil revenues. Ordinary Americans and English people are not disgusted by this.

Funding Iran's exportation of terror is a good deal in your book.

I wager you know nothing about the terms of the Iran deal other than that the Israelis don't like it and successfully persuaded Donald Trump to renege on the U.S. agreement. Introducing an allegation about so-called Iranian terror is a distraction from the topic.

You are doing nothing but schilling for the mullahs while they export terror.

The Iran Deal has nothing to do with your repetition of alleged Iranian support of terror. You are mixing up two distinct topics because you are unable to debate America's isolation from its traditional allies on account of reneging on the agreement.

It had everything to do with bargaining with terrorists.

America is not isolated. That is your foolish imagination working overtime.

Donald Trump has succeeded in isolating the USA from its traditional European allies. In the meantime the Administration in Washington is negotiating with the Taliban terrorists. Believe what you want.
