Democratic administrations, from Bill Clinton to Joe Biden, have pursued a misguided 'grand bargain' with Iran, which has emboldened its leaders rather than fostered peace.
Despite ongoing US sanctions since the 1970s hostage crisis, groups like the American Iranian Congress continued to lobby for business dealings with Tehran, showcasing persistent naivety.
Kenneth R. Timmerman argues that the historical attempts at deals with Iran, such as Clinton’s effort before the 2000 election, illustrate a dangerous miscalculation by US leaders.
The illusion that Iran might align with US interests has led to a series of failed diplomatic efforts, ultimately increasing risks to global safety.
