The
Associated Press has uncovered a
major new development about the proposed nuclear deal and secret side
agreements between Iran and the International Atomic Energy
Agency.
According to the report, these “separate arrangements” suggest
that Iran will be entrusted to deploy its own inspectors as part of the
IAEA’s investigation of the Parchin military facility—where Iran is believed to
have carried out illicit nuclear weaponization activities.
By allowing
Iran a lead role in the investigation of its nuclear activities, the deal
undermines the IAEA’s credibility and suggests that the full extent of Iran’s
weaponization efforts will never be known.
As The Wall Street Journal
suggested in an
important editorial last night, “the country that lied for years about its
nuclear weapons program will now be trusted to come clean about those
lies.”
Please
click here to contact your members of Congress now, and urge them to reject a
deal that relies on Iranian self-inspection.
As more details
come to light about this deal, it is increasingly clear that it fails to meet
congressional standards of a good deal.
According to a new CNN/ORC poll
released today, 56%
of Americans now say they think Congress should reject the deal with
Iran.
J.B. Pritzker, a former co-chair for Hillary Clinton’s 2008
presidential campaign and a self-declared “lifelong Democrat,” reiterated this
point in an
op-ed published today. “For the sake of our values and our security,
Congress should reject this deal, leave the sanctions in place, and support
efforts to negotiate a better agreement.”
Please share these articles
with those in your network, and urge your family and friends to contact Congress
today. Your leadership is essential to ensuring our lawmakers in Washington
understand the grave dangers of this deal.
Please call
and email
Congress today.
Sincerely,
Brian Shankman Director of Regional
Affairs and Development |
