"Washington and Jerusalem are of one mind about the danger Iran presents to the region, and the world, as the Islamic revolutionary state moves ever closer to the threshold of producing nuclear weapons."
Is this true? Originally the JCPOA was intended to delay the development of the bomb. This was the source of Israel's rejection. If this has changed, would Iran ever agree? The JCPOA is diplomacy in search of a future for those policy experts who believe in it. This does not include the Iranians. Hence diplomacy is negotiating with ourselves, also called "failing upwards" for our diplomatists. Better to assume that Iran will not stop until it has a bomb, like Pakistan and North Korea. Then strategy might develop clarity of thought and there might be a real "plan B".
