The agreement signed with Iran on Sunday is a momentous step forward. Yet Republicans will try to subvert the success by playing to their Obama-hating base.
Well, the ayatollah appears to have lent his provisional support to the historic U.S.-Iran accord announced Saturday night. In a letter to President Hassan Rouhani, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei said the deal can be the basis for further intelligent actions. Now we just need sign-off from our American ayatollahs. But the early indications are that the Republicans, eager to perform Bibi Netanyahus biddingnot that they needed a second reason to oppose something Barack Obama didwill do everything within their power to stop the thing going forward.
We shouldnt get too carried away in praising this accord just yet. Its only a six-month arrangement while the longer-term one is worked out. Those talks are going to be harder than these were, and its not at all a stretch to envision them collapsing at some point. Iran is going to have to agree to a regular, more-or-less constant inspection regime that would make it awfully hard for Tehran to be undertaking weapons-grade enrichment. Its easy to see why they agreed to this deal, to buy time and get that $4.2 billion in frozen oil revenues. But whether Iran is going to agree to inspections like that is another question.
Still, it is indeed a historic step. Thirty-four years of not speaking is a long time. So its impressive that this got done at all, and even more impressive are some of the inner details, like the fact that Americans and Iranians have been in direct and very secret negotiations for a year....

ya know ... when giving trust I trust Bibi Netanyahu and no a mullah, zer0 or skerry. Am not like the lame-stream that has death wishes for Israel or their families.
I’m tired of American patriots being compared to ayatollahs and the Taliban by muslim-fondling traitors like the writer of this article. We should have nuked the Iranians in 1979 but Jimmuh lacked the intestinal fortitude to do anything useful. They’re still our enemies, but apparently not Obama’s and Kerry’s, who signed a quickie cave-in treaty with these snakes in order to take the media spotlight off of CommieCare. They hate Amerikka and they hate us even more than the perfidious Persians do. We’re screwed. Again.
There will be peace in our time!!! Appeasement is the opposite of war. And the timing of this will certainly not remove the ObamaCare disaster from the front pages.
ALL OF ABOVE are False.
