U.S. State Department Unimpressed That 195 Retired Generals And Admirals Oppose The Iran Nuclear Deal

Washington Examiner: State laughs off 195 retired brass opposing Iran deal

State Department Spokesperson John Kirby on Wednesday laughed off a letter from 195 retired admirals and generals opposing the Iran nuclear agreement, and dodged questions about why letters of support for the deal being touted by the government should be believed when they have far fewer signatures on them than the letters opposing it.

The Obama administration had hyped a letter from three dozen retired admirals and generals in support of the deal, only to be trumped by a letter sent to Congress on Wednesday in which 195 retired admirals and generals rejected the deal. The administration also put out a letter from rabbis in favor of the deal, but opponents of the deal immediately followed suit with more than twice as many signatures against it.

WNU Editor: This U.S. State department spokesman does not care if  even 1,000 retired Generals and Admirals opposed the deal .... it is all a question of what they (the White House) wants.
