I think a point missed in all this is that a “deal” that nobody signed and legislative bodies didn’t vet isn’t a deal, it’s just geopolitical mental masturbation that facilitated a bunch of payoff/bribery. It’s like all of the deal bull**** was the players, sitting around hashing out who’s getting how much and what and someone goes “hey, how are we selling this set up to the meat cogs?”
Everyone follows with “FUUuuuuu**... i got it, let’s say we met for a nuclear proliferation deal, gobbledegook that shit up so it’s so mind numbingly boring most of our constituents will enter a persistent vegetative state if they read it. Nobody’s going to check. Iran, try not to be so fookin’ obvious moving forward... How’s the lamb here?”
