Breaking News From the AP: Iran Deal to be Announced Monday [Weirddave]

VIENNA (AP) — Negotiators at the Iran nuclear talks plan to announce on Monday that they have reached agreement on a historic deal capping nearly a decade of diplomacy that would curb the country's atomic program in return for sanctions relief, diplomats told The Associated Press on Sunday.

The two diplomats said that a provisional agreement may be reached even earlier — by late Sunday. But they cautioned that final details of the pact were still being worked out and a formal agreement still awaits a review from the capitals of the seven nations at the talks.

And senior U.S. and Iranian officials suggested that not enough time was left to reach a provisional deal by Sunday. All of the officials, who are at the talks, demanded anonymity because they weren't authorized to discuss the negotiations publicly.

"We are working hard, but a deal tonight is simply logistically impossible," the Iranian official said, noting that the agreement will run roughly 100 pages.

Those fools. Those utter, useless, EVIL fools.

I actually hesitated on pulling out the flaming skull because we all knew that this was coming, but I figured in the end, the official announcement that the final section of the road to World War III has been paved was worth dusting off the skull.

We all know that the copy released by the AP is complete propaganda. These were not "tough negotiations" and the deal will do nothing to "curb" Iran's rush to a bomb. The important thing is that a deal was made on Iran's terms because "Deal" was the only thing Obama wanted out of this. The nature of the deal mattered little, and if that's your position going into a negotiation, the deal you get is going to be the one that your opponent wants.

This is what happens shallow, vain, ambitious, narcissistic and frankly stupid people get concerned about what their "legacy" will be. Well, there are many different kinds of legacies. Here's a guy who has a lasting legacy, and he was none of those:

Neville Chamberlain was a British patriot who honestly thought he has succeeded in steering the world away from repeating the horrors of WWI, and instead he guaranteed the greater horrors of WWII. John Kerry and Barack Obama are children playing diplomat on the stage of the world. Their overwhelming concern is not what the results of their actions will be, it's that they be remembered. Well, they will be remembered alright.

37 million died in WWI. 80 million died in WWII. I wonder how many will die this time around?
