| Iran said to cease dismantling centrifuges |

| [IsraelTimes] Decommissioning is required for compliance with nuclear deal, but hardliners object Iranian media is reporting that the government has stopped taking apart centrifuges in two uranium enrichment plants. The reported cessation on Tuesday follows the issuing of a letter, drafted by 20 conservative politicians, complaining that the process of complying with the nuclear deal was too rushed, according to Rooters. The nuclear deal, negotiated between Iran and six world powers, including the United States, lifts economic sanctions in exchange for Iran curbing its nuclear program. Israel has staunchly opposed the deal, which was completed in July. Last week, Iran announced it had begun shutting down inactive centrifuges, a process the country's conservatives oppose. The dismantling of centrifuges is one of the requirements of the nuclear deal; US Ambassador to Israel dan Shapiro told news hounds on Tuesday that Iran had many steps to take to comply with the deal before sanctions would be lifted, and said this would take several months. Only inactive centrifuges were being dismantled, according to Iranian reports. Last week's letter from hardliners to President Hassan Rouhani said that deactivating the centrifuges violated directives of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. |

| #1 And so it begins... Iran starts reneging on its commitments, the State department starts making up excuses for them... Clinging desperately to a deal Iran had no intentions of following in the first place... And the excuses get more and more shrill.. "We have to bend a little here and there... Go along to get along and all that..." Meanwhile their Iranian counterparts chant "Death to America!" |
