Sure Iran can't be trusted

A reader at Instapundent comments about Iranian duplicity with the Obama administration:

Now we know why Obama turned his back on Iranian protesters. Note that the secret negotiations began in June. What else went on in June in Iran? Oh yeah… those pesky election results protests.

Basically, he turned his back on the Iranian people because that whole free election fight of theirs wasn’t nearly as important as the nuclear deal he was working out with Iran’s regime. Too bad the regime couldn’t be trusted to actually live up to its end of the bargain. Big surprise there, that you can’t trust political leaders who believe in silencing their own people…

Maybe that should serve as an object lesson to us about Obama…
Object lesson noted, however, when the President is willing to mislead Americans (deficit neutral health care comes to mind) and renege on allies (Eastern Europeon missile protection anyone?) why would Iranian leadership be expected to trust Mr. Obama?
