Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu was mocked for his rhetoric when he spoke before Congress earlier this year, but he has been proven correct: This deal is not about whether Iran gets a nuclear bomb, but when.

Until 9/11, no terrorist group had killed more Americans than Hezbollah. “It’s never going to come up on the radar again”. We are grateful to all the contribution Israel gave that made this deal what it is now.
Ultimately however, the impact of the nuclear agreement will depend on political dynamics in Iran. any in the Iranian establishment support the resolution of the nuclear confrontation, and agree that Iran does not need to be perpetually at odds with the rest of the world.
Rather than ending Iranian enrichment programs, the worldwide community will be assisting its development.
The two countries have been holding talks on renewing a 10-year defense pact that is set to expire in 2017. The agreement provides for “snap back” sanctions, which essentially lifts the suspension of sanctions in the event of an Iranian violation.
Writing in Lebanon’s Daily Star on Thursday, Bandar, who left office a year ago after orchestrating Saudi aid for Syrian rebels against Iran-backed President Bashar al-Assad, said that Arabs were now turning away from the United States. “It has no acknowledgment by Iran of Israel’s right to exist”. The most likely scenario is a combination of both dynamics. We are certainly through the looking glass now. (A barrel is 42 gallons, but when refined it expands so a barrel of crude produces more than 42 gallons of fuels and feed stocks.).
This deal does the opposite of rolling back Iran’s nuclear program. Iran has more than 11 percent of the known recoverable oil reserves worldwide. The Joint Commission will be informed in advance of the specific projects that will be undertaken at Fordow…The transition to stable isotope production of these cascades at FFEP will be conducted in joint partnership between the Russian Federation and Iran on the basis of arrangements to be mutually agreed upon. The West has its own economic interests. Russia, already straining under lower prices for the oil and natural gas it exports, will not like this.
What Is the Iran Nuclear Deal?
That means suppliers have gone unpaid.
Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Tyler), who represents Angelina and Nacogdoches counties, called the agreement “an ultimate betrayal of Israel, Egypt and moderate Muslim nations everywhere”, as well as an “absolute gift to terrorism by the Obama administration“.
“With this deal, Saudi by necessity will reach out to other world powers”. Other states in the region also feel threatened and may do the same. They must also inform Iran of the basis for their concerns. Although its economy roughly equals that of metropolitan Boston, it has 80 million people, 16 times as many as metro Boston.

Iran is a country with a highly educated population and a rich tradition of intellectual achievement. Indeed, the monitoring of the whole supply chain from the mining of uranium to the enriching of UF6 gas in centrifuges will make it difficult for Iran to divert materials into a covert program without us knowing about it. So there are some very important achievements in the agreement. That is good news for Iranians and for countries selling to Iran.

Despite failing to make provisions for their release part of the nuclear agreement, Secretary of State John Kerry said the Americans being held prisoner by Iran were not forgotten, claiming “these Americans have remained in our thoughts throughout this negotiation”.
