UPDATE - But the regime also has stonewalled a separate IAEA investigation into undeclared nuclear sites in the country. This points to a fundamental flaw in the nuclear agreement: No one knows the true extent of the Iranian nuclear program, let alone what’s happening at the declared sites. The sense of security the deal provided the West was illusory, but the sanctions relief was real.
Iran was always Cheating
A key part of the Iran Nuclear Deal, in addition to the "anywhere anytime" inspections (that in reality were only as/if Iran chose to allow - which they didn't) was complete disclosure of all nuclear activity.
Just this month the IAEA said its investigators found nuclear material at another undeclared site and that Iran’s explanation was “not credible.”
This is in addition to the discovery in May 2018 of the existence of a secret Iranian nuclear archive — a curation of Iran’s past work on nuclear weapons, which had never been disclosed to international inspectors or nuclear deal negotiators.
What else don't we know.
Too bad Iran's top nuclear weapons scientist, Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, was just assassinated in an ambush.
And too bad that it appears Democrats and Biden's team still believe in fairy tales
U.S. Senator Chris Murphy, the top Democrat on the U.S. Senate’s Middle East subcommittee, said on Twitter that “this assassination does not make America, Israel or the world safer.” Huh???
Robert Malley, who served as Iran adviser to Obama and is advisor to Biden’s team, questions Fakhrizadeh’s killing, "One purpose is simply to inflict as much damage to Iran economically and to its nuclear program while they can, and the other could be to complicate President Biden’s ability to resume diplomacy and resume the nuclear deal”
