President Donald Trump is set to announce a new response to Iran's "bad behavior" in the Middle East, the White House said on Friday.

It will not be aimed at one facet of Iranian policy, but many, including Iranian support for extremist groups in the Middle East, its ballistic missile tests and its online operations, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the White House press secretary said.

"The president isn't looking at one piece of this. He's looking at all of the bad behavior of Iran," she told reporters. "Not just the nuclear deal as bad behavior, but the ballistic missile testing, destabilizing of the region, Number One state sponsor of terrorism, cyber attacks, illicit nuclear program," she continued.

Since his inauguration, Trump has set about containing Iran's influence in the Middle East, openly criticizing the landmark nuclear deal signed between Tehran and world powers in July 2015 that the president has repeatedly called "the worst deal ever negotiated."

4. The rest of the world observes that there is NO illicit nuclear program in Iran

Not to mention - "the nuclear deal as bad behavior"?

This is more blatant than the lies that led to the Iraq invasion. Not to mention, Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states are at least as significant as Iran's (including notably 911!). As to "cyber attacks" -- I think Putin wins on that category! Not to mention it was a US/Israel cyberattack that hit the Iranian nuclear facility in the early Obama years.

8. Funny she should talk about destabilizing

If *anyone wanted to see the US destabilized domestically and reduced in effectiveness on an international level, they could not have installed a more fitting president.

9. Once again....

this simply about negating everything that the black man accomplished as President. If Obama was for it, then they're against it. Totally despicable and vile creatures.
