So you're good with making deals with irrational governments.
That's all you need to say.
See. Modus Operendi.
I've asked for your solution and you've not provided anything. What is your solution other than diplomacy?

Ironic isn't it that the people who scream loudest at the very merest whiff of religion here are sure that our best course of action is to buddy up with the very kind of dictatorial theocracy they are sure any politician who says, "God," will usher in here.

Why do I have to offer a solution?
I'm simply pointing out that you all are supporting a deal with an irrational theocracy. You all are in favor of a deal with a religious theocracy.

But it's in our best interests, apparently, to trust these same people (who talk with their "sky-gods") with their word not to build nuclear weapons.
Again what would you do?
Bomb them?

. It's only people like you who favor letting them develop nukes (bomb if I ever heard it) that made it a complete binary choice

"OMG! You don't like this? You must want to BOMB THEM!!11!!! You want war."
originally posted by: ketsuko, but we don't exactly see how we got anything out of this deal, either, but Iran will get the bomb.
Now that Iran will get its money, I think there will be a great economic boon to the Middle East and Russia will greatly benefit by default due to its close relationship to Iran. This could mark the beginning of a new era; either of peace and prosperity or a new era of Doom and Gloom as Iran secretly builds and uses a Nuclear weapon. That's how I see it.....What says ATS?
Enjoy your support and trust of a religious theocracy. I certainly hope that they don't build a nuke and detonate it.
As the White House secured their last needed vote to block a veto override in the Senate on the nuclear deal, Iran unleashed a double-pronged attack: vowing to block inspector access to some sites, and vowing to continue preparations to destroy Israel.
Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Hossein Dehqan said today that the International Atomic Energy Agency — which inked confidential deals with Tehran that Congress has not been able to see — would not be able to see all the facilities it wants to.
“Iran does not plan to issue permission for the IAEA to inspect every site,” Dehqan said in an interview with al-Mayadeen news network on Wednesday, reported the semi-official Fars News Agency.
Back in July, he stressed that “missile-related issues have never been on agenda of the nuclear talks and the Islamic system will resolutely implement its programs in this field.”
“The US officials make boastful remarks and imagine that they can impose anything on the Iranian nation because they lack a proper knowledge of the Iranian nation.”
Also today, a senior commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps said they have work to do.
The IRGC’s top commander in Tehran province, Brigadier General Mohsen Kazzemeini, told operating units undergoing drills in the capital that “they (the US and the Zionists) should know that the Islamic Revolution will continue enhancing its preparedness until it overthrows Israel and liberates Palestine,” according to Fars.
“And we will continue defending not just our own country, but also all the oppressed people of the world, specially those countries that are standing on the forefront of confrontation with the Zionists,” Kazzemeini said.
Iran’s Press TV mused that “questions remain on how far Tel Aviv would really go, with its warmongering premier Benjamin Netanyahu, to disrupt the accord,” rhetoric that’s potentially setting the stage for an attack on Israel that they’d call defensive.
