Iran Signs Historic Nuke Deal

Ladies and gentlemen we have a deal! John Kerry has negotiated a deal on behalf of the United States with the Iranians to freeze their nuclear program for ten years. Cenk Uygur host of The Young Turks breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

“The deal does this: Iran will give up the bulk of its nuclear program, namely its enriched uranium (nuclear fuel) and its centrifuges (which turn fuel into weapons material). That will leave it with a program way too small to build a bomb.

Iran will also submit to extremely invasive inspections. That’s to make sure it isn’t cheating, for example by sneaking nuclear material off to some secret facility and developing a bomb there. The idea is that Iran knows it can’t get away with cheating, and will be punished if it does, so it won’t try.

In exchange, the world will remove a lot of the economic sanctions it’s placed on Iran, and Iran gets to keep just enough of a nuclear program that it can save face.”*
