5 things that the Obama administration gave in on when they negotiated with Iran. The agreement doesn't really seem enforceable as we will have to give the Iranians a heads up before any investigations occur. Summarizing what was in The Hill newspaper and some other sources:
1. Banning uranium enrichment
2. In 2012, Obama promised ending their nuclear program. In 2013, he promised capping centrifuges at 500 to 1,500
Before re-election in 2012, Obama promised: "The deal we'll accept is: they end their nuclear program. It's very straightforward."
what we got was 6,104
3. Shuttering secret nuclear facilities
President Obama said in December 2013: “They don’t need to have an underground, fortified facility like Fordow in order to have a peaceful nuclear program,. They certainly don’t need a heavy-water reactor at Arak in order to have a peaceful nuclear program."
What we got was that nothing got shut down
4. Ending Iran's ballistic missile program
What we got was nothing
5. Finalizing a 25-year sunset clause
10 year agreement, assuming that one believes that it is enforceable.
