Bravo Rouhani, Bravo Kerry.
Persia has done something that UK and US are no longer capable of doing. Persia has ELECTED a leader who takes a DIFFERENT path from previous leaders. Rouhani decided to take the Turkish ZERO PROBLEMS approach. He gave up macho, gave up grandiosity, found a way to make things better for HIS OWN PEOPLE.
And Kerry (presumably representing Obama) has shown the good sense to go along with Rouhani. Remains to be seen whether he will be allowed to do it; our Supreme Ayatollah Netanyahu may require us to welsh on the deal.
Spoiled bully Bibi has already started roaring and screeching. The more he roars with no results, the more he shows Israel as an aggressive monster. Another good effect of this agreement.
This is a victory for Obama's steady-pressure foreign policy, and a fulfillment of a campaign promise..... unlike his domestic agenda, which is full of lies and dismal failures. Seems to be a common pattern among presidents. Alleged "liberals", who campaign mainly on domestic reforms, cause disaster domestically while quietly succeeding in foreign matters.
Above all, this is a victory for ZERO PROBLEMS.

Later and clearer thought about Obama: When elected, he had a chance to solve THREE major problems. (1) Banksters. (2) Health care. (3) Middle East wars.
He chose different paths on those three problems, with very different results. On (1) he chose to continue TARP and QE. Chose to continue pouring trillions and trillions and trillions into the Jew Casino instead of closing it and jailing its participants. Result: Continued national collapse. On (2) he chose to give an infinite monopoly to the health insurers, which pleased Emperor Joe Lieberman. He rejected a single-payer plan which would have solved the problem. Result: Continued national collapse. On (3) he chose to
displease the Jews. Result: Less war, less tension. Success.
Why is (3) so different? Why does Obama slavishly obey the Jews on domestic matters but disobey them on military and diplomatic matters?
