Dick Cheney and Washington, D.C. Cheney

Washington, D.C. Cheney: I know of no nation in history that has agreed to guarantee that the means of its own destruction will be in the hands of another nation, particularly one that is hostile, Cheney said during a 45-minute speech at the American Enterprise Institute in Washington, D.C. Cheney later added, Arming and funding Iran while simultaneously providing them a pathway to nuclear arsenal is not an act of peace, according to MSNBC. It not, as President Obama claims, the only alternative to war. He argued on Tuesday that the deal will give the Middle Eastern nation the means to launch a nuclear attack on the United States. It is madness. The demonstrator was escorted out of the event, with Cheney simply saying thank you very much and returning back to his prepared remarks. * Protester interrupts Dick Cheney during speech on Iran deal* His scathing criticism, however, comes as 41 Senate Democrats announced they will back the deal — enough votes to block the Senate from passing a GOP-backed resolution to knock it down. Cheney was interrupted by a protester early in his speech who started shouting You were wrong in Iraq and Dick Cheney is a war criminal. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
