The National Review<\/a> posted a story today about the nuclear deal with Iran<\/a>. In the story, Fred Fleitz, the author, reports on two aspects of the deal with Iran that were not going to be made public (or available to Congress<\/a> or other nations).<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Senator Tom Cotton<\/a> (R., Ark.) and Congressmen Mike Pompeo<\/a> (R., Kan.) issued a press release\u00a0yesterday on a startling discovery they made during a July 17 meeting with International Atomic Energy Agency officials in Vienna<\/a>: There are two secret side deals to the nuclear agreement with Iran that will not be shared with other nations, with Congress, or with the U.S. public. One of these side deals concerns inspection of the Parchin military base, where Iran reportedly has conducted explosive testing related to nuclear-warhead development. The Iranian government<\/a> has refused to allow the IAEA to visit this site. Over the last several years, Iran has taken steps to clean up evidence of weapons-related activity at Parchin.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The other side deal relates to the\u00a0possible military dimensions (PMDs) of Iran\u2019s nuclear program<\/a>. Evidently the PMD issue is not resolved. In 2013, Iran agreed to answer\u00a0International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)<\/a> questions about work in weapons-related areas, but has not actually answered the questions.<\/p>\n

This is a copy of part of the press release issued by Senator Cotton and Congressman Pompeo:<\/p>\n

According to the IAEA, the Iran agreement negotiators, including the Obama administration, agreed that the IAEA and Iran would forge separate arrangements to govern the inspection of the Parchin military complex<\/a> \u2014 one of the most secretive military facilities in Iran \u2014 and how Iran would satisfy the IAEA\u2019s outstanding questions regarding past weaponization work. Both arrangements will not be vetted by any organization other than Iran and the IAEA, and will not be released even to the nations that negotiated the JCPOA [Iran nuclear agreement]. This means that the secret arrangements have not been released for public scrutiny and have not been submitted to Congress as part of its legislatively mandated review of the Iran deal.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do we need any more reasons to reject this treaty?<\/p>\n
