In their arrogance they assumed they can welch on the MoU without suffering significant Iranian retaliation. The Entity is the most important nodding donkey America's been operating in the middle east, 80 years of investment. It's part of their identity and they need to be convinced the well is dry before they dismantle it.

I wouldn't link TLDR News here. Even this one is keeping on brand with their die hard liberalist/pro-us/trump-ambivalent content:

"Before the Iranian Revolution in 1979, the Iranian economy was booming"

I don't have faith in their "new deal"
