1. More hot air from congress critters
spyguy ,   seattle usa   (03.19.14)
Congress critters can whine all they want, BUT in the REAL WORLD, the US has no way of forcing Iran to do anything and the congress critters know it. This is all just meaningless political theater designed to puff up the congress critters images. In the REAL WORLD, the US will NOT attack Iran because Iran has spent the last 35 years arming itself to make the US pay a very, very heavy price for any attack (which is why Israel hasn't attacked). In addition, the third-party sanctions will all fall apart by the end of 2014 because the rest of the world is getting tired of US pushiness. Obama is going to get the best deal he can and the congress critters are going to have to live with it. The deal will NOT prevent Iran from enriching fuel.
2. 83 senators maintaining double standards
Mark B. ,   Amsterdam / Holland   (03.19.14)
Iran has every right to enrich uranium under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, just like all other countries who signed the treaty. And when it chooses to leave this treaty, it has the right to produce nukes, just like Israel did. A law that is not equally applied to all is not a law but a discrimanatory meassure and therefore inherently unjust. NO to double standards.

5. Nukes
Alan ,   ohio   (03.19.14)
I absolutely agree....every country should be allowed to develop nukes including Sudan, Somolia, Egypt, Iraq, .....all armed to the teeth!!! No controls...nothing. Just bring it on especially Syria and Lebanon. All have rights. Launch the sooner the better.
