    You mean the current nuclear deal that they have said they will not honor? There is no final deal yet, and the preliminary deal was being sabotaged by the Ayatollah:

    You can try to claim that this somehow will stop them building a weapon, but I just don't see it. They still have Uranium mines, they still have the centrifuges, what is to stop them from making more refined Uranium to build bombs with? They are after all saying the inspectors will not be given access to military facilities...which is where you do this kind of work...

    You can claim that I am ignorant, but you have given no facts, just hyperbole.

    Everyone gets lots of upmods, it is the balance of upmods vs downmods that matter though. If you get more downmods than upmods, than what you have to say is more irritant than useful.

    I have heard of many paid car pools. Car pools generally pool maintenance and gas costs as well, or did you think the driver was donating that?

    I think you replied to the wrong AC, Greece's banks and government have been acting like drunken sailors, and it is unfortunate that they think exiting the Euro will fix the problem somehow.

    There is this technology called OTDR:

    It allows you to tell down to the inch where a cable was cut. Common practice is to use it from both ends to make sure there are not multiple cuts. If you think someone could hide a splicing activity, you are deluding yourself.

    The main problem I see is that you have seconds to live if your air conditioner dies,

    Not really, at ~50km altitude, atmospheric pressure is near 1 atm, and temperature is just a tad warm for humans. If you go a little higher, you get into the normal temperature ranges for human habitation.

    You see the stuff about that they were down blending 20% enriched Uranium (the picture with the description of how a centrifuge works) because of an agreement in 2013. You don't need 20% enriched Uranium for reactor fuel. As they haven't actually gotten rid of the means of producing this material, why do you believe that they aren't working for a bomb?

    Eliminating all paths to nuclear weapons is funny too. They have the centrifuges and Uranium mines, how do you eliminate their ability to use them?

    Monitor the Supply Chain? You mean the supply chain from the mines inside Iran to the centrifuges inside Iran to the bomb making facilities inside Iran?

    There isn't an external supply chain to monitor, they do everything within the country.
