It's hard to take Obama's account of his Iran policy at face value. "Pivot to Asia, create a balance of forces in the Middle East..." The JCPOA was cover to realign US foreign policy with the Ayatollahs and to elevate Iran and its "equities" to become the regional power. Hostility to US allies and interests from the Obama and Biden administrations was too open for their talking points to be credible. This was ideology dressed up as pragmatism.
Remember when Biden trotted out the Kashoggi affair to antagonize Saudi Arabia as soon as he took office? What was the point of that again?
Why was his administration so reluctant to even mention the Abraham Accords by name?
Why did Biden waived sanctions on Iran that were keeping the region calm, which was good for the US?
Why did Biden remove the Houthis designation as a terrorist organization?
