For the next few months all you'll be hearing about is the great bargain Obama and Kerry achieved with Iran. So, let us count the ways this nuclear deal is a "good deal".
1) Iran will stop its ICBM program. After all, ICBMs are worthless without nukes.
Well, not really.
2) The US can withhold enough of the billions being repatriated to Iran to pay each family of an American soldier killed by an advanced armor-piercing IED Iran provided to the Taliban and Iraqi militias $10 million.
Well, not really.
3) Iran must acknowledge the right of Israel to exist.
Well, not really.
4) Iran must free all Americans being held unjustly in Iranian prisons.
Well, not really.
5) Iran must stop providing arms and rockets to Hezbollah and Hamas, two terror organizations.
Well, not really.
6) Iran must stop uranium enrichment and send already enriched uranium to Russia for safekeeping.
Well, not really.
7) Iran must allow on-the-spot inspections of its nuclear facilities.
Well, not really.
8) Iran must stop its proxy wars in the Middle East being used to advance its hegemony.
Well, not really.
9) The Supreme Leader of Iran must put that fatwa against nuclear weapons, that Obama insists he issued, down on paper so someone besides Obama can see it.
Well, not really.
10) Iran must agree to never kill its unarmed citizens again during peaceful protests.
Well, not really.
11) Iran must change its name that was derived from the Sanskrit word arya. Another word derived from arya is Aryan, as in the master race Hitler espoused. So, Iran's leadership might stop behaving like Nazis if they change their name.
Well, not really.
12) Iran must agree to look like its behaving itself until, at least, John Kerry gets a Nobel peace prize and Obama leaves office with another notch in the Resolute desk.
Really.
