“Israel will still have some reservations about the Iranian nuclear program and will see it as a potential threat for its security,” Dmitry Evstafiev, political analyst, told RT.
Agree, will not go against the consensus. However, it will do its utmost to scuttle the consensus. The work is well under way in corridors of power in US. There will be "problems" with the deal --- one can just hear it all. It all depends on what happens in Obama's circles, and to the Democrats as a congressional voting body. It they see the benefit to ending this saga, they will end it. If they (meaning their most powerfull backers), do not see benefits they expected, but see the threats to their funding and electoral potential, they will scuttle the deal. At the moment, there is very little support for ending the Iran drama. Energy majors are not getting anything without "regime change" in Iran; Israel lobby is frantic to keep Iran in crosshairs of the West, Republicans will just wait to criticize, no matter what, while the wobbly Democrats in Congress are fearing the Lobby's owsome powers to get them "unelected". Only if Democrats and their backers find it in their interest to get Iran off the front of the agenda, and focus on behind the scenes undermining of the regime --- the deal will be accepted in US. It all remains to be seen.
