Sen. Tester backs Iran deal

A powerful video has been released by Veterans Against the Deal, aimed at influencing undecided lawmakers tovoteagainst thenucleardealwith Iran. According to the Administration, the parties have achieved a long-term comprehensivenucleardeal withIranthat will verifiably preventIranfrom acquiring anuclearweapon and ensure that Iransnuclearprogram will be exclusively peaceful going forward. Most Republicans in the House and Senate oppose the deal.

Addressing a Reuters Newsmaker event in New York,Kerrytook aim at those in Congresswhosaya better deal could still be reached.

He cited concerns with specific parts of the deal like the conditions for inspectors to visit suspected nuclear sites inIran, saying, Inspections are not anywhere, anytime; the 24-day delay beforewecan inspect is troubling.

Meanwhile, there is a debate whetherPresidentObama has a secret back up plan in case the deal is rejected byCongress, given the intense resistance it is facing in Capitol Hill, where Sen.

Now that the pact has been finalized, Kerry stated such a heavy-handed strategy was an choice not.

Areyoukiddingme?

Because if you dont do this deal folks, not only will we have walked away fromourallies Britain,France,Germany, and non-allies, but interested parties Russia,China, he said. Even iftheyabide by the deal,whichis highly unlikely,we are merely kicking the can down the road and allowing them to develop nuclear weapons in 10-15 years, with the blessing of the world community.

It will also impose provisions for inspections ofIranianfacilities, including military sites.

Some European governments have already led delegations of entrepreneurs for visits to Iran after the nuclearagreementin anticipation of the economys opening. We must exhaust diplomatic options before moving to military ones.

Ido not see where Benjamin Netanyahu was interfering with anything, he continued.

Bloomberg called onCongressto make its own hard and careful assessment of theagreement, noting that it can not fully do so until it has access toallof the related side deals. The rest of theworldwould likely pursue workarounds to inoculate themselves from thesanctions, which would have the effect of weakening and isolating theUS, Abdisaid.

Kerrys comments came shortly after Schumer told reporters why he decided last week to oppose the agreement.

Rather, Iran receives asmuchas $150 billion in frozen assets, will reap enormous profits from post-sanctions commerce, and can spend asmuchas it will to promoteterrorism.
