Trumps bargain with Iran: Letters to the Editor June 20, 2026

President Trump’s Iran deal appears to be an Obama redux (“For Tehran, with love,” June 17).Even though Israel did the heavy lifting in taking out top regime figures, the president dropped the ball in not following up and destroying the rest of the drone and missile factories.Without the regime change that the people thought would be delivered, nothing changes.They were sadly mistaken in believing Trump.David ObremskiWayne, NJThe Iranian people weren’t let down by the United States.
