Secretary Global-test, the king of patty-cake

Mr. Unicorns-and-Rainbows is actually out there encouraging the legitimization of America's mortal enemy, the world's number-one sponsor of terrorism:

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Tuesday that European businesses should not use U.S. sanctions on Iran as an excuse for avoiding business with Tehran.

Mr. Kerry’s comments, just ahead of meetings with European banking leaders here Thursday, were part of the Obama administration’s moves recently to help integrate Iran into the global economic system after decades of punitive sanctions.

Six world powers agreed last year to lift international sanctions in return for curbs on Iran’s nuclear program. But since the deal formally took effect in January, Iranian officials have complained that they are not seeing the results of the sanction relief swiftly enough. Although the U.S. played a major role in the nuclear deal, U.S. sanctions related to human rights and terrorism remain in place on broad sectors of Iran’s economy.

Mr. Kerry told reporters traveling with him Tuesday that the U.S. “sometimes gets used as an excuse in this process” by business executives who fear that U.S. would frown on deals with Iran.

“If they don’t see a good business deal, they shouldn’t say, ‘Oh, we can’t do it because of the United States.’ That’s just not fair. That’s not accurate,” Mr. Kerry said.

Then again, given recent revelations about Ben Rhodes and how the Most Equal Comrade's nomenklatura knew that Rouhani getting "elected" president would not moderate the Iranian regime, we can see that this is of a piece with that whole bunch's mad vision of a world based on an "international community" that includes rogue states that develop nuclear missile programs with which to murder us in our beds.
