Obama says Iran nuclear deal 'historic'
 [AA.TR] President Barack ObamaRepublicans can come along for the ride, but they've got to sit in the back... said Thursday that the U.S. and its negotiating partners have reached an "historic" understanding with Iran about its nuclear program. The Great Plague of London in 1665 was pretty historic, too... "Today, after many months of tough principle diplomacy, we have achieved the framework for that deal. And it is a good deal, a deal that meets our core objectives," Obama said. The sinking of the Lusitania was historic, too... Obama spoke shortly after negotiators in Switzerland ...home of the Helvetians, famous for cheese, watches, yodeling, and William Tell... announced a general deal on Iran's nuclear program. The sacking of Rome in 410 (and 455 and 546 and 1527) was/were pretty historic, too... Nothing is finalized until the deal is signed, but once completed, it "will make our country, our allies and our world safer," Obama said. "If the framework leads to a final deal, it will make the U.S. and the world safer." Custer's last encounter with the Indians was pretty historic... The agreement allows strong controls on Iran nuclear program for as much as 25 years, with severe limits during the first decade. Obama said the terms would now make Iran the "most inspected country in the world." Priam thought the Greeks leaving and getting that wooden horse as a gift was an historic victory... "This deal is not based on trust, it is based on unprecedented verification," said Obama, as Iran agreed to the most robust and intrusive inspections ever negotiated for any nuclear program. Nagasaki thought Hiroshima was historic, until they became historic, too... He said some speculated that Iran would cheat and that the interim deal would fail. "Instead, it has succeeded exactly as intended. Iran has met all of its obligations," Obama said. Posted by: Fred 2015-04-03 |
