US Says May Seek Dismantling Part Of Arak Reactor In Iran Deal

2013-12-06

It goes without saying that seeking and finding are two different things, especially when The Smartest Men in The Room are involved.

[Ynet] A top US diplomat suggested on Wednesday the United States may press Iran to agree to dismantle part of its Arak nuclear reactor in a comprehensive agreement to rein in Tehran's atomic program.

And the Mad Mullahs will press right back...

A comprehensive agreement "includes a lot of dismantling of their infrastructure," Wendy Sherman, undersecretary of state for political affairs, said on PBS Newshour, speaking about a final deal with Iran. "Because, quite frankly, we're not quite sure what you need a 40-megawatt heavy water reactor - which is what Arak is - for any civilian peaceful purpose."

#4 Looks like State didn't get a SITREP until after the agreement was signed. Posted by Pappy

My guess is, that's what happened in Benghazi as well.

#2 Exactly, Alan. The deal is signed, the bargaining over. Any further concessions will only come from the Americans. Maybe we could offer to enrich their uranium for them.

#1 Wait a minute! I thought a deal was all done. How can we seek more stuff after the "law" is signed. Does the law mean nothing to our regime?

Oh wait, forget I just asked that......
