A lot of people are fraudulent, making it sound like a science. It's not.

The biggest loser is Iran because there has finally been a finding that they are in non-compliance and that changes the equation enormously...They are now considered violators and no longer a member of the club.

It would appear as though we just basically wanted this agreement so badly we got it - badly.

If the idea is to promote a sense of security at the same time that the development of large reactors to a long list of countries is promoted, then it's very misguided. They're trying to sell this as a nonproliferation initiative, but we shouldn't be so quick to cede that point.

Until and unless the US-Allied stakes in the strait's threatened closure can be reduced, Iran will literally think and act as if it has us over a barrel.

I'm not optimistic we can somehow diplomatically get them to give them up.
