The New York Times Blasts Trump; Excuses Obama for Carnage in Syria

Legal Insurrection
The Times can’t acknowledge that it championed the policies that brought such destruction to Syria
. . . "Enabling Assad Enabler, Iran
"In an editorial taken (I think) from Obama’s rhetoric, the Times praised An Iran Nuclear Deal That Reduces the Chance of War. Now if you’re Syrian, or are aware of what’s gone in Syria, Yemen, Iraq and Lebanon since July 2015, you know that the deal by releasing billions of dollars to Iran, intensified wars already going on.
"But the Times saw no bad in this deal either.
As described by Mr. Obama and other officials, the deal seems sound and clearly in the interest of the United States, the other nations that drafted it and the state of Israel. In return for a phased lifting of international economic sanctions, Iran will reduce by 98 percent its stockpile of low-enriched uranium, which can be processed further into bomb-grade fuel, and reduce the number of operating centrifuges used to enrich that fuel by two-thirds, to 5,060. These limits mean that if Iran ever decides to violate the agreement and make a dash for a nuclear bomb, it will take a year to produce the weapons-grade fuel needed for a single bomb, compared with a couple of months now.
