This would be a great thing... if we could put any faith in it.
On par with England reaching a peace agreement with Hitler in 1938.
But... remember how that one actually turned out?
One difference: Hitler didn't have nukes.
I'm not hearing the least skepticism on the news as I type this.
I expect that to change VERY soon.
When I hear the following:
U.S. and other countries have sent inspectors into every plant associated with Iran's nuclear effot, and all of them report that they witnesses Iran's nuclear processing plants being shut down, the machinery removed, and ALL of Iran's nuclear capability being reduced to the levels demanded by the major world powers. Iran is now fully in compliance with the major powers' requirements.
Furthermore, Iran has fully agreed that the inspectors will stay in place, with complete ability to videotape, film, capture, and othewise record and broadcast everything going on in ALL plants at any time they want, with no interference.
When I hear that on all major news channels, THEN it will be "news".
Until then, it's just the "civilized" world falling for another middle Eastern lie. Hardly news at all.
Iran, six world powers clinch breakthrough nuclear deal

GENEVA (Reuters) - Iran and six world powers reached a breakthrough agreement early on Sunday to curb Tehran's nuclear program in exchange for limited sanctions relief, in a first step towards resolving a dangerous decade-old standoff.
The deal between the Islamic state and the United States, France, Germany, Britain, China and Russia was nailed down after more than four days of negotiations.
"We have reached an agreement," Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif announced on his Twitter feed. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius also confirmed the deal.
Iran will get access to $4.2 billion in foreign exchange as part of the accord, a Western diplomat said. No other details of the agreement were immediately available.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and foreign ministers of the five other world powers joined the negotiations with Iran early on Saturday as the two sides appeared to be edging closer to a long-sought preliminary agreement.

All we have to do is make it clear that for every nuke used by Iran on the United States, if ever, we will use 10 on them.
[iran is gambling with the house]
I don't think that's necessary. Besides, what difference would that make? It's not as if they're stupid enough to launch a nuke against us and expect us to blow it off and go golfing instead of responding.

I don't think we need to explicitly state it as it is already implied.
I probably should have stated: "It is already clear that for every nuke used by Iran on the United States, if ever, we will use 10 on them so anybody want to play a round of golf?"

"Obama changing the subject" is irrelevant and unimportant here.
Iran keeping this agreement, is what matters. And is VERY much in question.
