> At the time, Israel whined incessantly about how Iran was going to secretly enrich anyway. But their own intelligence from compromising the enrichment program shows in hindsight that this was not the case and Iran was behaving themselves.
Then why wouldn't they submit to IAEA inspections?
- smallmancontrov 6mo agoThey did. IAEA repeatedly certified that they were complying with the deal. The IAEA's inability to address Israeli + Republican "concerns" about uranium hiding at military sites is not an indication that Iran reneged on the deal, it's an indication that Israel and Republicans never really wanted a deal and would criticize any deal for not going "just a bit further." In this case, "just a bit further" meant "surprise access to any Iranian military site" which is a wild thing to ask for and an indication of just how far the deal already went.
