As Gary Rosenblatt accurately describes the type of Jews that are against the Iran deal, he fails to write about specifics of the deal that drive these activists to their point of view (“Iran Deal Driving Jews Farther Apart,” Between The Lines, Aug. 14).
Giving access to $150 billion to an enemy that openly threatens to destroy the United States and its allies is total lunacy. Anyone reading this letter who believes that we will have any form of accountability as to how this money will be spent should understand that even the best form of forensic accounting techniques would have the most difficult time in following the money trail from Iran.
If we could actually have inspectors on the ground to witness that this money is improving the lives of the average Iranian citizen, then we would have a much more positive view of this deal. Until then we must oppose and renegotiate, if possible.
