Report: Expert Says Obama Iran Deal a "Joke," Tehran Has Nukes, EMP to Attack US

A former senior government official and intelligence expert said that former President Barack Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran is a failure and a complete “joke.”

In an exclusive interview with The Daily Wire, Dr. Peter Vincent Pry said he believes Iran already has the bomb — as well as the capability to launch an electromagnetic pulse attack that could use a nuclear weapon detonated above the earth’s atmosphere to cripple vital American power, electronics and communications infrastructure.

“I think Iran has already got nuclear weapons mounted on missiles and has the potential to do an EMP attack against the United States right now,” Pry, executive director of the Task Force on National and Homeland Security, told The Wire.

Pry also said that the United States did not have a credible verification system setup with Iran, noting that hostile nations have fooled the International Atomic Energy Agency many times in the past.

Pry said the 2011 IAEA report contained “a virtual smoking gun that Iran already has the bomb,” adding that Iran was already manufacturing bridge wire detonators, neutron initiators and had completed an implosion test as far back as 2003.

Pry has good reason for thinking Iran is already part of the nuclear club — or very close to it.

Even the pro-Obama administration CNN reported in 2011 that the IAEA report had found that the Islamic Republic’s quest for a nuclear weaon was “more ambitious and structured, and more progress has been made than previously known.” And that was six years ago.

Pry said it was so obvious that Iran most likely already had nuclear weapons, that “anyone with half a brain” could see it, The Wire reported.

Unfortunately, given the state of the world after eight years of Barack Obama’s presidency, if North Korea has nuclear capabilities, it is not out of the realm of logic to assume Iran does as well.

Pry, who served as the chief of staff on the Congressional EMP Commission, explained that one of the most dangerous aspects of Obama’s Iran nuclear deal was the lack of oversight on Iran’s military facilities.

“All the IAEA does is inspect the peaceful part of their nuclear program,” Pry said. “They have no access to their military facilities where the military program would be going on.”

It seems like some of what Pry discussed would be obvious, but apparently not to those in Washington.

Pry said politicians and policy makers are ignorant about the matter, which doesn’t help the situation.

At the end of the day, Pry said that the deal was Obama’s attempt to secure his legacy.

“When Obama signed that thing, he let them off the hook, to prove that they didn’t have the bomb yet — and I think it was on purpose because he was so anxious to get that deal to set up his legacy and everything,” he said.

“He didn’t want to be the president where Iran goes nuclear on his watch,” he concluded.

Of course, none of this is surprising to those who understood Obama was putting Iran’s interests — and his own — above those of the American people.

We can only hope that President Donald Trump can continue to reverse some of Obama’s bad deals before anything horrible happens.
