How is there still anyone who does not understand why Israel opposes the nuclear deal with Iran? Rather than being a deal of the brave, it is a deal of the naive. What other secrets will we soon find out about the deal?

What a bizarre world! The Associated Press
revealed on Tuesday that, under the terms of a secret deal with the
International Atomic Energy Agency, Iran will be allowed to use its own
inspectors to investigate the Parchin military site, where it is
suspected that Iran carried out nuclear weapons development activities.
You read that correctly. The cat will get to guard the cream. No need to
worry, friends.
The date on Tuesday was Aug. 19, not April 1,
so this was not a prank. By the same "healthy" logic used by world
powers, Israel should let Hamas run the Iron Dome system during the next
war in the Gaza Strip, and the Interior Ministry should give up its
authority to stem illegal migration. We must adapt to the new world we
live in. And what a strange world it is!
Over the past decade, Iran never stopped lying
and cheating as it built three secret nuclear facilities, and the world
nobly turned the other cheek. How is there still anyone who does not
understand why Israel opposes the nuclear deal with Iran? Are there any
Israelis who think it is wrong to oppose the deal? A deal of the brave
it is not. Rather, it is a deal of the naive.
Since the deal was signed in Vienna on July
14, there have been non-stop surprises, including revelations about
secret components of the deal. And recently, the IAEA chief said he was
obligated to keep the details of his organization's side agreements with
Iran confidential. If the AP report proves to be true, he should hang
his head in shame.
Over the past month, during which opposition
to the deal has only grown, we have had trouble digesting numerous
problematic aspects of the deal. For example, we discovered Article 10
on Page 142, which stipulates that world powers and Iran will foster
"cooperation through training and workshops to strengthen Iran's ability
to protect against, and respond to, nuclear security threats, including
sabotage, as well as to enable effective and sustainable nuclear
security and physical protection systems." Absolutely unbelievable!
Later, we heard U.S. Secretary of State John
Kerry (future Nobel Prize winner?) admit to Congress that he had not
seen the IAEA's side agreements with Iran, but, thank God, he had been
briefed on them.
And now, we find out Iran will inspect itself
at Parchin. If this absurdity is true, it would be best for Kerry to
declare, "I didn't know."
Under the deal, Iran will provide its own soil
samples from Parchin, and it will have an advance notice of 24 days
before inspections of suspicious sites can be conducted. American
comedian Jackie Mason joked that restaurants in New York face a tougher
inspections system.
By agreeing to this deal with Iran, Obama
produced a very funny episode of "It's a Wonderful Country" (an Israeli
comedy show), but in Persian rather than Hebrew.
It is now easy to understand why, within weeks
of the deal being signed, the Iranians were saying that no foreign
entities would enter their military sites. They knew what they were
talking about, as they were aware that world powers had agreed to forgo
inspections of Parchin.
So what's next? What other secrets will we find out
about the nuclear deal? Perhaps, when the deal expires, Iran will be
allowed to conduct nuclear weapons tests with world powers?
