It's about time someone said the obvious and the reality of what we're seeing happen.
ONE MAN DOESN'T CHANGE A NATION.....he can just 'appear to be' for the defined period of time he has to keep the appearances and games running. Iran seems to be losing sight of the fact that when Obama is gone? So is his deal or whatever he's working with a nation MOST of THIS one still considers an ENEMY. (If FDR lost, and this nation made nicey-nice with Hitler in 1940 ...would that have been right?)
I'm not suggesting Iran is a direct comparison to Germany in 1940, because it isn't...in any real way. Except...they aren't a nation ours should be seeing ONE MAN and his henchmen make any 'secret' deals with, under ANY circumstances.

I don't trust this Administration any further than I can throw them...and if Iran does? They'll deserve the bait-and-switch it will probably appear to have been to them, in the end. 10 year agreements? lol..... It won't be a full TWO year agreement, if Congress is played like fools and the Senate does not get it's 'advise and consent' role.
The President loses himself for his place in things, as usual...

Led by freshman GOP Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas, 47 Republican senators have signed an open letter to Iranian leaders emphasizing Congress’s role in signing off on a potential deal over Iran’s nuclear program and warning that anything not approved by Congress “is a mere executive agreement.”
They write that while the president negotiates international agreements, Congress ratifies them, and that most of the senators in office will remain there well beyond President Obama’s time in office.
“[W]e will consider any agreement regarding your nuclear-weapons program that is not approved by the Congress as nothing more than an executive agreement between President Obama and Ayatollah Khamenei,” they wrote in the letter first reported by Bloomberg. “The next president could revoke such an executive agreement with the stroke of a pen and future Congresses could modify the terms of the agreement at any time.”
