At last night’s #GOP debate, many of the Republican candidates blasted the Obama administration for hailing an “historic” agreement with a nation that would detain U.S. sailors and circulate video and photographs of them in custody for propaganda purposes. The U.S. State Department later sounded as if they were acting as Iran’s attorney.
Politico’s Glenn Thrush wanted critics of the Obama administration’s Iran policy asked this question:
How many American service members would the GOP candidates sacrifice to avenge the humiliation of the 10 sailors on bended knee?

That’s the only option?

Just a little:
@GlennThrush The point was the U.S. should not suck up to enemies who help kill our soldiers and now humiliate and degrade our sailors.

@GlennThrush You seem to miss the big picture of what happened. https://t.co/RinS5i2AeM

@GlennThrush How loudly would you whine and yell if we treated innocent Iranian sailors that way? I bet very loudly.

@GlennThrush Even for you Glenn, this is obtuse, ignorant and insulting. And that's really saying something.

Here’s the question that should be asked:
@RichardGrenell @politico How many American civilian lives are libs willing to sacrifice so Obama can get a faux Iranian nuclear agreement
