Now you can clearly see why the U.S. runs on a 2 party system.

USA didn't really give much if anything. If you mean the $150 billion, that money has always been Iran's. It is oil money and unfullfilled arms payments that USA never fullfilled when Iran started acting up by kidnapping people and threatening Israel.

[@noblevi3623]

Nuclear Proliferation, there's your answer. The RnD to go from a Fission Power Plant to a Fission Bomb can only take about as long as 20 years. More recent nuclear power plants either use different radioactive material or a safer system that makes it considerably more difficult to go from cleaner, cheaper, energy, to a weapon of mass destruction. Hell, North Korea figured it out by themselves, a country that's a huge part of the international economy, even easier.

Chad Kimball Do a search on the "Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action" (AKA Iran Nuclear Deal document, justsecurity.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/271545626-Iran-Deal-Text.pdf) and you'll see that there zero reference to Iranian Ballistic Missiles development (see bottom for search results). Meaning, either after the deal's expiration date, or sooner - if Iran manages to cheat, Iranian missiles could be tipped with Nuclear warheads. (let's not forget what happened in Munich and Pyongyang). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Listing of persons, entities and bodies (asset freeze and visa ban) 1. Asset freeze and visa ban measures applicable to: other listed persons, entities and bodies not related to proliferation-sensitive nuclear-, arms- and ballistic missile- related activities; listed persons, entities and bodies related to proliferation-sensitive nuclear-, arms- and ballistic missile-related activities; and The European Union will: 20.

[@patrickilmoni9380]

Ratty Ofcourse sanctions can work, it depends what you mean with "work". Just like embargoes usually do work. A modern society is especially vulnerable to such measures . There are many historic examples of this. Iran is a powerful country with a lot of potential and smart people, I am sure they can live quite happily without some bomb that is quite useless anyways. A nuclear weapon is of no use whatsoever if you think about the lives of ordinary people. It is a weapon for deterrence, and Iran has proven to be quite capable of deterring and defending its territorial integrity without any nuke. That is why they chose to go for this deal.

[@amirhossein1687]

Ratty US begged us to negotiate :) Yes , it really worked! By sanctions Iran makes their own nuclear power , different type of missiles , satellite etc and made US beg Iran to negotiate. Thank you so much for helping us improving :)

Trump lied about that. It is actually 1.5 billion, although some say it is 33 billion. That's far from 150 though. If america went to war with them, US would lose a few trillions of dollars as well possibly indirectly creating the Islamic state of Iran

No. 1.5 billion dollars/16.77 trillion dollars of US GDP is 0.009% of our GDP, nowhere near enough to make them a superpower in the middle east. Even if Donald Trump was not lying, 150 billion/16.77 trillion is still just .9% of our GDP. We could make that in three days.

[@searching4quiet]

I get it. Ty for this video!!

[@tylerfb1]

This deal sounds great! It is great. The last deal was great as well. What everyone is up in arms about is the enforcement. This deal has terrible inspection terms (e.g. the length of time of giving notice, and the sites that can be inspected) and enforcement terms (e.g. the time given to come into compliance when a violation is observed, and what actions we can take when there is non-compliance). That is THE critical part of the deal, and this deal has no muscle in that area. Also, sanctions were working. The reason this got done was because no one in global politics at the time would stand up to Iran when they threatened war. Yet war is always a last resort possibility, and we have to be prepared to use that tool, IF necessary. Turns out, only Iran was, so they got what they wanted.

[@mberg1974]

People who claim to dislike the deal usually don't really care so much about the actual deal, it's the lifting of sanctions instead of bombing Iran they really dislike...

[@mberg1974]

PixyDst500 Iran has not been given any money, what they have received is money that used to be theirs before it was "frozen". If you want Iran to build nuclear bombs, your way is probably the best: Steal their money, isolate them from the outside world, make any nuclear deal impossible by making impossible demands, make constant threats to bomb them "until the sand is glowing". Lots of right wing extremists don't want to make any deals with Iran. They think a deal makes the US look weak and they want Iran to remain this supervillain who they can use to scare people with. If that comes at the cost of Iran getting nukes, I think that is a price lots of crazy right wingers are willing to pay. I live on this planet, and I would prefer it if Iran don't get nukes.

[@mberg1974]

PixyDst500 The thing about nukes is, there is no point in spending money on them if you can't tell anyone that you have them. The opposite is more common, N Korea says they have nukes but experts are sceptical since there is very little evidence supporting that claim. Israel will never go to war against Iran without consent from the US. There is hope of Iran changing and becoming more democratic and less of a terrorstate in the next 10 years, and that could not happen without this deal.

@@BarryAllen-ow2px it would be suicidal to all of us because if Iran and US start exchanging nukes chances are Russia and China will join the nuke party and every one would run MAD! (Mutual Assured Destruction)

[@fission3116]

One very important fact that this video leaves out is what is happening to the plutonium biproduct that would be very easy to cheat inspections with and wouldnt be very hard to turn to weapon grade

[@scottdetter]

3 of the top nuclear site can only be inspected by Iranian officials. All other inspections require 24 day advanced notice.

[@emmal429]

Iranians don't want war either.. it's the government. Most Iranians just want to live peaceful lives

@@yougetagoldstar America isn't. But the US literally called Iran, North Korea, and Iraq the three devil states/axis of evil a decade ago.

[@najibrizvi]

Chanting death and actually bringing death is different! How many Americans has Iran killed? How many Iranian military personnel are surrounding America? And then see how many bombs has American dropped in the mid east! How many American bases are surrounding Iran. Now tell me who's actually bringing death to whome

[@DeusHex]

So why they keep choosing those leaders?

[@yeahiguessso5815]

I don't see what the problem is

[@errickflesch5565]

+Yeah,i guess so I guess you have not followed the News over the last 10 years ? Well, just utube Iran, and see what their government thinks of Americans and Israel and how they want to destroy both.

[@eddysmith5137]

RevolutionaryMike Tf r u talking about? The left controls the media in the US so if something like how the black community is at its lowest unemployment rate under Trump and all these raises given to employees under Trump are covered up. You don't hear about it too much

[@tylerdurden7927]

The problem is that this deal has a ten year expiry date. After which they are allowed to make as many nuclear warheads as they please. The #1 problem for Iran has been how to deliver these warheads to your doorstep. Sanctions made that very difficult A warhead is pretty useless if you dont have a delivery system (the rocket part of the ICBM) This deal asks them to give up most of their useless warhead material...and in exchange they can now work on their delivery systems...with the money they now have with sanctions gone. And after 10 years, they can make new warheads....and put them in their new delivery systems...now they have a way to deliver Mr. Warhead to your doorstep...yay!!!

UDon'tNeedTo Know lmao that was all the after affects of Obama’s stimulus package trump didn’t even pass any type of tax reform when that happened he was only 3 months in. Have you been watching fox and fell for their propaganda? Most people can see through it even foreigners laugh at Fox

[@stephanieda2276]

excuse me if i am wrong but won't iran be allowed to inspect their own nuclear facilities?

[@Saternoc]

I like the content that Vox puts out, but I remember watching Vice cover this issue more objectively. I felt much differently about the Iran deal than I do from watching this video. That's the problem with the ONLY watching news coverage from a network that skews a certain way.

[@Psychosgamers]

so basically its another situation, where the big bullies forbid to other kids to have the same toys as them?

[@thelegoplumbers62]

+PsychosGamers Basically, but the "big bullies" in this case are overall in better shape to handle the "toys" than the other kids

[@Psychosgamers]

Kelly DeWitt thats debateable, because the big bullies fucked it up more than the 33 official times (broken arrow) while they were trying to ''handle'' their toys. its only NOW that they have enough experience (thats also debatable cause they dont fully understand those toys as much as they want to believe) to handle the toys with wisdom. the weaker kids in the playground are only trying to ''survive the day'' and have some fun without someone taunting them, beating them up, controling them ALL the time. the weaker kids can now have the established knowledge of what NOT to do wrong in order to handle their toys with safety. They can also have the high tech equipment to do that even more efficiently. Moreover handling and using a toy is so much different. A weaker kid can have the same toy as the big bully has in order to protect himself. its a ''war of impressions''. they are only trying to make it clear : ''leave us alone or you know what happens''.

[@ScienceMarc]

Well when the toys have the power to end the world in nuclear fire it makes sense that we don't want them to get those toys

[@samanthaw4955]

Inspect Israel.

[@AceProductions828]

They have nuclear weapons but don't use them. And they don't publicly declare they want to wipe out Iran off the map unlike what the Ayatollah says about Israel over Twitter.

[@samanthaw4955]

AceProductions828 Israel have threatened to attack Iran previously so warrants an open inspection in my opinion of what they have for the world to see just like others. My point is it is a double standard that shows lack of ethics.

[@AceProductions828]

+Samantha W They live in the most heated part of the world and have been constantly threatened with extinction or at the least attack. These are people which people throughout history hate (for whatever reason). And yet they could take out Iran and their enemies with a push of a button but they won't do it. If Iran had the capability they'd do it, they even publicly declared they would. And don't say they wouldn't do it if they had the chance because Hitler openly said anti-Semitic related things and getting pay back for the treaty of Versailles and he went through with it. Israel has elections and freedom to worship despite getting attacked from those who kill in the "Allah". We can trust them unlike Iran. And please if you deleted my other comment, I'm not accusing you of doing it, don't delete this one. For some reason my other comment isn't showing up so I'm not accusing you.

[@mustafairaq7367]

+AceProductions828 no but Iran is right about that because its a country they stole and Iran is with the truth even if that means that the whole world is against them like with these bullhit economic sanctions. Down with the zionist down with the evil ones

[@mustafairaq7367]

Comedy. The moment you start to discuss with a fool is the moment you lose. So i won't. But everybody who knows a little bit can see your hatred, your racism, wich is deep in you. I can see a lot of lies and you know that you Israeli agent. GO WATCH: AHMEDINEJAD MEETS NY JEWS. To see my approach and view to real (1%) jews. The zionists are materialistic in their view, tribalist, racist people who are abusing the jewish faith.
