 | As Obama June 30th Nuclear Deal Looms, Iran Parliament Chants ‘Death To America’by Geoffrey Grider |
With some lawmakers chanting “Death to America,” Iran’s parliament voted Sunday to ban access to military sites, documents and scientists as part of a future deal with world powers over its contested nuclear program.
EDITOR'S NOTE: US President Barack Hussein Obama desperately wants America to think he has successfully brought the Iranians to the bargaining table, and has solved the question of a nuclear-armed Iran. Taking the opposing viewpoint, however, was the Iranian parliament who stood on their feet and shouted en masse "DEATH TO AMERICA!!". Well played, Obama, well played.
The bill, if approved into law, could complicate the ongoing talks in Viennabetween Iran and the six-nation group — the U.S., Britain, France, Russia, China and Germany — as they face a self-imposed June 30 deadline. The talks are focused on reaching a final accord that curbs Iran’s nuclear program in return for the lifting of economic sanctions.
Iran Parliament chants "Death to America":
Of 213 lawmakers present on Sunday, 199 voted in favor of the bill, which alsodemands the complete lifting of all sanctions against Iran as part of any final nuclear accord. The bill must be ratified by the Guardian Council, a constitutional watchdog, to become a law.
The terms stipulated in the bill allow for international inspections of Iranian nuclear sites, but forbid any inspections of military facilities.
Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani read the bill aloud in a session broadcast live on state radio. It states in part, “The International Atomic Energy Agency, within the framework of the safeguard agreement, is allowed to carry out conventional inspections of nuclear sites.”
However it concludes that “access to military, security and sensitive non-nuclear sites, as well as documents and scientists, is forbidden.” source
