The above title may seem like a contradiction in terms.

Although Iran is theoretically committed to never developing nuclear weaponry, many of this deal’s provisions expire in 10 or 15 years. In that sense, it is a failure. Secretary of State John Kerry said Tuesday that if Congress rejects the deal, the U.S. won’t be able to prevent allies from doing business with Tehran.
He reiterated that the Islamic Republic of Iran is ready to face all scenarios.
“As agreed with the IAEA, Iran presented its documents and responses to the IAEA about its past nuclear program or the possible military dimensions (PMD) before the deadline”, Kamalvandi was quoted as saying by official IRNA news agency.
The information also included a confidential explanation that is unlikely to veer from previous Iranian denials of work on such weapons. But it does represent an opportunity to eliminate that possibility by making sure that Tehran’s clerical regime no longer exists after another ten years.
The July 14 nuclear deal’s main goal is curbing Iran’s present nuclear program that could be used to make weapons.
In this vein he writes that the collapse of the clerical regime is not a foregone conclusion. But nothing could be further from the truth.
He underlined that the resistance of the Iranian nation resulted in the victory of Iran against the world’s biggest powers in an unfair battle. To Amess this points to the fact that the negotiations could have accomplished so much more, but it also highlights the fact that any retreat on the part of the regime exposes its internal vulnerability. Although it was an global deal, Gergen credits President Obama for attempting diplomacy. If we renege now, our partners won’t support us. It seems continued crackdowns on political activists have failed to put a stop to such calls for broad-based change. Lacking legitimacy the regime of the mullahs needs weapons of mass destruction for the sake of their effects on its status in the region, and even more so in light of the growing challenges just outside of its borders. It can be done simply by actively acknowledging the democratic aspirations of the Iranian people and supporting the existing opposition to the regime on both the regional and the domestic scale. Amess said that it is lamentable that the west has squandered the opportunity to cooperate with the NCRI, led by Mrs. Maryam Rajavi.

Under the nuclear deal, the IAEA inspectors will have access to Iranian nuclear sites to verify that Iran fully implements the deal in exchange for relieving the country of major economic sanctions imposed by the Western powers. Yes, Iran gets back frozen funds; but only after huge decreases in Iran’s centrifuges, enriched uranium, and permitted research activities. It’s between Iran and essentially the rest of the world, represented by a coalition of divergent interests we could not easily reassemble.
