Colin Powell On Iran Deal: ‘I Think It Is A Good Deal’

How long before he's being viciously attacked on Fox and right wing blogs? The Iranian nuclear deal is pretty well a done deal, but that won't stop the right from doing their best to undermine and dismantle it. Say what you will about Colin Powell and his responsibility for the Iraq invasion, he's right about this: Colin Powell: Deal With Iran Is A 'Pretty Good Deal':

Former Secretary of State Colin Powell said Sunday that President Obama's nuclear deal with Iran is a "pretty good deal."

"I think it is a good deal. I studied very carefully the outline of the deal and what's in that deal. And I've also carefully looked at the opposition to the deal," Powell told NBC's Chuck Todd on "Meet The Press." "And my judgement after balancing those two sets of information is that it's a pretty good deal."

Many of the Republican presidential candidates have voiced their opposition to the deal.

"I say, we have a deal, let's see how they implement the deal. If they don't implement it, bail out. None of our options are gone," Powell told Todd.
