Representatives grill Kerry on aspects of Iran nuclear talks
Associated Press ^ | Feb 25, 2015 11:10 AM EST | Deb Riechmann and Matthew Lee

The Republican chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee is pressing Secretary of State John Kerry about sensitive nuclear talks with Iran, saying Tehran is stonewalling international inspectors about its past work on an atomic bomb.

California Republican Rep. Ed Royce told Kerry at a hearing on Wednesday that the committee has serious concerns about the direction of the talks.

Kerry agreed that Royce’s questions were legitimate and that Iran must answer them if it wants to have an agreement with the U.S. and its partners on a deal to curb its nuclear program.

At the same time, Kerry said that it’s not appropriate to condemn what is in an agreement before anybody knows what it is—or if there even will be a deal. …

They need to recognize that they have to reflect to the proceedings that Monsieur Le Pantelones Fancie was in Viet Nam.

This admisistration couldn’t negotiate its way out of a mud hut with a Caterpillar D9 to ride on.

Not when they are negotiating the country into said mud hut, while cutting the hydraulic and fuel lines of the D9.

Saw a little of this.

Kerry is a moron of the highest order. I was waiting for him to blurt out his “Jenjis Con” remarks.

His OWN failings and lack of credibility aside, Kerry CANNOT be effective because by now, the whole world is fully aware of the utter and routinely demonstrated US habit of mishandling sensitive information...our own and everyone else’s!

Everyone wants to keep Americans as far away from what matters as possible.

Can we blame them?

I think that’s the contribution of such “internationalists” to a “multipolar world”. If they destabilize the entire planet, especially by bringing down the USA, they probably think that they can bring their revolution to every corner of it—the ultimate “beneficial crisis” in their view, although they don’t seem to know what the real result will be.

You mean Lavizan-3, a secret nuclear site operated since at least 2008 for research and development with advanced centrifuges located in a military base in the northeast Tehran suburbs? The underground facilities are dual-layered to prevent radiation and sound leaks. That one?

You would hope someone does ask this very pertinent question.

Iran promises to kill millions in Israel and the US. obama and Kerry promise the Iranians they can have the nuclear bombs they need.

Here is Iran showing them attacking a ship that represents a US carrier with missiles.

Kerry and obama are ok with this.

Yeah, he and Obama have given them everything, including the kitchen sink, to get a deal, any deal, even if it means allowing Iran, the leading sponsor for terrorism in the world, to make their own nuclear bomb.

I am not sure why they would do such a thing unless it is to punish Israel for being our ally. But then Iran hates the US as well, so let's see how well that works out for these two amateur "negotiators", who Iran has publicly called "desperate".
