Scott Johnson<\/a> posted an article at Power Line<\/a> today about the ongoing negotiations with Iran<\/a>. There is a June 30 deadline for some sort of agreement to be reached. It is a good idea to keep in mind that a nuclear treaty with Iran would be seen by President Obama<\/a> as the crowning accomplishment of his second term of office. To put this in perspective, it might be a good idea to remember that President Obama considered Obamacare<\/a> to be the crowning accomplishment of his first term of office. We have seen how that worked out.<\/p>\n

President Obama is desperate for a deal with Iran. Unfortunately, Iran is well aware of that fact. The concessions made to Iran have passed ridiculous and are moving forward to dangerous.<\/p>\n

The article at Power Line reports:<\/p>\n

The Associated Press<\/a> got ahold of one of the five secret annexes being worked on ahead of a final deal between the P5+1<\/a> global powers and Iran. This one \u2013 titled \u201cCivil Nuclear Cooperation\u201d \u2013 details a range of nuclear technology that various members of the P5+1 will be obligated to provide Iran, including \u201chigh-tech reactors and other state-of-the-art equipment.\u201d The draft that the AP saw wasn\u2019t finalized, and so some of the concessions are subject to change.<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the annex is written right now, however, this is no longer a deal to stop the Iranian nuclear program<\/a>. It\u2019s a deal to let the Iranians perfect their nuclear program with international assistance and under international protection.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Are we nuts? Someone needs to stop this runaway train before it puts the entire world at risk.<\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

\n

Imagine that 15 years from now the Iranians have built a dozen LWRs (light-water reactors)<\/a> with help from a P5+1 nation. One concern is indeed that they\u2019ll kick out inspectors, keep the spent fuel, and start reprocessing on the way to creating a plutonium bomb. But a more subtle concern is that they will use the existence of the LWRs as a pretext for industrial-scale uranium<\/a> enrichment \u2013 because they\u2019ll say they need the uranium fuel for their plutonium plants \u2013 which can serve as a cover for breaking out with a uranium bomb. The P5+1 would be actively providing the Iranians with diplomatic leverage to use against the P5+1 in the future. The answer to this latter concern is that the JCPOA (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action<\/a>) sunset clause already allows the Iranians to have an industrial-scale uranium enrichment program that can serve as a cover for breaking out with a uranium bomb. I\u2019m not sure the administration wants to overemphasize that point.<\/strong><\/p>\n
