The disastrous deal with Iran is effectively done. That may not officially be acknowledged at the moment, amidst talk of gaps still to be closed and the prospect that a further extension may be needed to complete the negotiations.
The reality, nonetheless, is that Iran has already gotten from President Obama what it wants. That is:
First, legitimation of its nuclear program – including facilities and activities unmistakably tied to Tehran’s decades-long pursuit of The Bomb.
And second, relief from U.S. and international sanctions that, for a time, created real costs for the mullahs as they sought to acquire the means to achieve their two most ominous ambitions – wiping Israel off the map and bringing about “a world without America.”
All that’s missing now is Team Obama’s fraudulent spinning and self-congratulations.
