If you trust Iranian leadership to follow this agreement, you are being foolish.

I saw a forum where someone claimed you'd need only 3 ton of ore to get enough material for a bomb if you had some perfect processing method. The way centrifuges do it, you need more like 300 tons of ore per bomb. So it seems like there's lots of room for improvement. Probably shouldn't speculate on the internet what those methods light be. Doesn't seem like a healthy activity.

Sure, but inspections were effective in Iraq and they are a big part of this agreement.

Apparently John Kerry finds this "media propaganda" newsworthy enough to comment on it publicly. And why are quotes and comments from Iran's leadership "media propaganda?" is it because they contradict your opinions?

Iraq is not Iran.

Iraq is not Iran.

Sure, but what's the difference that impacts the effectiveness of inspectors?

Wasn't the inspection program a complete circus and what actually worked in Iraq (to some degree) was the sanctions?

I'm a little surprised that nobody yet has questioned the President's Constitutional authority to "veto" a treaty that hasn't been passed by Congress into law.

From the Washington Post; a few days ago.

So as of now, Schumer looks like he'll be a no vote.

Senator Charles Schumer from New York; not his cousin Amy.

That's a pretty big deal.

EDIT: From CNN online.

I thought the inspections were considered a success. It was key to going to war. I don't think there would have been a war if Saddam didn't boot the inspectors, and in the 11th hour, when it was clear to him that the US wasn't bluffing about going without UN Security Council consensus, he tried to allow the inspectors back in.

Inspections or self-inspections? Obama and Kerry are a couple of beauts!
