Why the Framework Nuclear Agreement With Iran Is Good For Both Sides

Lasrick writes: Ariane Tabatabai breaks down the details of the framework agreement between Iran and the P5+1 that was announced Thursday. It appears to be better than most analysts expected, with positive outcomes for both sides. It truly seems historic: "A number of these steps will, in effect, be irreversible. They will not just limit Iran's nuclear capability for 10 to 15 years, but will reshape it entirely and indefinitely. ... [B]oth sides stand to gain from the framework agreement, which should also be considered a victory for the global nonproliferation regime. Ahead of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty Review Conference that begins in late April, where no major achievements in nonproliferation are likely to be announced, the framework agreement is a very important success."

    While Obama may hype this agreement as not allowing Iran to destroy the world with nuclear weapons for at least 15 years, our Israeli masters will never allow our congress to ratify this agreement.

    In all the years, this is probably the most ridiculous article I've read on /. What does this have to do with anything tech related? Maybe it's time to say goodbye and leave for greener pastures.

    "If they're really that determined, they're going to get nukes anyway. At least this way they can use some of that money to fund Isis." (for various values of militant Islamic nutjobs)

    FTFY.

    Yeah, just Zionist terrorism in the West Bank and Gaza.
