Gov. Huckabee discussing the Iran deal with Wolf Blitzer

it's very much for joining us let's talk about this Iran nuclear deal you've been very critical of it very opposed

to it doubt would it be a game changer as far as you're concerned if as a gesture of goodwill to the U. S. the Iranians went ahead and

release those for Americans they're holding hostages what they should have done that before the United States ever set down at that table that should have been a pre condition and

the other two preconditions should have been that Iran agrees that Israel has a right to exist and

a third precondition should have been that they end the rhetoric of death to America and those

three conditions were not met we never should have sat down and even started this conversation much less ended up with

a lot of this hundred fifty nine page agreement which I've read and it's it's alarming and it obviously has everyone in that neighborhood alarm

I'm one American who is outraged that this president is so intent on making a deal with people who have attempted deal in thirty six years since the ayatollahs for power if

the house and the Senate what would you do on day one as far as Iran and this nuclear agreement is concerned and

otherwise what would be your alternative yeah alternative is to take the actions to revoke the agreement a

reinstitute the sanctions on Iran make it clear that this was a terrible deal it

was done in a manner that didn't really have the support of the American people was

not done in the best interest of peace and that we have a new sheriff in town and a new sheriff is not

going to accept that agreement as %HESITATION one that we're going to live with because we can't live with Iran having nuclear

Americans kill Americans %HESITATION it's unacceptable form of civilized behavior and we simply aren't going to negotiate but

what if the Iranians do honor all of its nuclear related commitments over the next year and a half what

if they're unicorns that are discovered somewhere in the Middle East %HESITATION show me when the Iranians have

ever kept an agreement they have it show me when the Iranians quit chanting death to America they haven't tell

me when the Iranians stop sponsoring terrorism and murder people through Hezbollah and

through Hamas they haven't %HESITATION so that there are a lot of it's there but the one thing we know for certain is

that this deal was predicated on the absolute ironclad belief that the Iranians can be trusted now

somebody else may trust them I most certainly do not and obviously neither did the Saudi Arabian %HESITATION

government officials neither did the Egyptians that or Danny is the Kuwaitis the Emiratis and I think anybody who's ever watched well

you may be right on the others the Jordanians the vote in the UN security council yesterday unanimous fifteen to nothing vote in favor of

the Iran nuclear agreement what secretary of state Kerry says is over the last year and have two years the Iranians have kept their word is first the
