Iran: White House Lying About Details of Nuke Deal
2013-11-27
[FREEBEACON] Iranian officials say that the White House is misleading the public about the details of an interim nuclear agreement reached over the weekend in Geneva.

Iran and Western nations including the United States came to an agreement on the framework for an interim deal late Saturday night in Geneva. The deal has yet to be implemented

The White House released a multi-page fact sheet containing details of the draft agreement shortly after the deal was announced.

However,
if you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning...
Iranian foreign ministry official on Tuesday rejected the White House's version of the deal as "invalid" and accused Washington of releasing a factually inaccurate primer that misleads the American public.

"What has been released by the website of the White House as a fact sheet is a one-sided interpretation of the agreed text in Geneva and some of the explanations and words in the sheet contradict the text of the Joint Plan of Action, and this fact sheet has unfortunately been translated and released in the name of the Geneva agreement by certain media, which is not true," Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Marziyeh Afkham told the Iranian press on Tuesday.

Afkham and officials said that the White House has "modified" key details of the deal and released their own version of the agreement.

Iran's right to enrich uranium, the key component in a nuclear weapon, is fully recognized under the draft released by Tehran.

"This comprehensive solution would enable Iran to fully enjoy its right to nuclear energy for peaceful purposes under the relevant articles of the NPT in conformity with its obligations therein," the agreement reads, according to a copy released to Iranian state-run media.

#19  Well, #14 shows a nice grandfather overlooking a clean, green nuclear power plant. I feel much better already! Can I vote for Obama again?

Now if the picture was Dinner Jacket pointing to this --

THEN I'd be worried!

#18  Alternatively, the Iranians just decided to renegotiate the deal, and the administration is stuck with deciding whether they still have a deal or not, after losing the X billion dollars.

#17  I think the Iranians just decided they got their X Billion dollars, they're going to take the money and run.

#15  Zero has never been anything better than a junior Senator from Illinois. And a flop at community organizing in general. Look at what the rebels he organized did to our diplomats in Benghazi, Libya.

Heard his golf scores aren't that impressive either, and those he probably lies about, too.

Iran is in full celebration mode over the West's capitulation to its nuclear program. Phillip Smyth says of the above image: "This was *just* posted on some Shi'a militia pages. 'The Islamic nuclear republic'"

#7  I think it's a case of The Chicago Way being overpowered by the Mad Mullahs overwhelming urge to rub the nose of The Great Satan in the stinky doggy doo.

Champ tried to stretch the truth to make himself look better, hoping the Mullahs wouldn't notice. Or maybe they told Lurch, "Don't worry about it (wink, wink)".

Either way, the inexperienced clods in D.C. have been outclassed by the expert Persian back-stabbers. Unexpectedly!

#6  g(r)om, if you have "A" on one side and "not A" on the other should you concentrate on "B"?

Personally I tend to believe that Obama and Jawn lie anytime their lips are moving; so it's a question of are the Iranians also lying?

#3  Raj, Iran has been more truthful over time. The West (and Obama) ignore their words and actions just as they do w/r the Palestinians. You can save wear and tear on your pocket digging for a coin.
