The true test of Trump’s Iran agreement will come only if the fighting stops
Differing perceptions of the meaning of the memo are already emerging. The US insists any release of Iranian assets or lifting of sanctions will be tightly tied to Iranian compliance. Tehran said the 60-day clock will only start if Washington starts disbursing billions of dollars of its frozen funds. Such is the mistrust between the US and Iran, and so high are the tensions between Israel and Tehran, that it will be a major achievement if the agreement lasts until a deal is signed.
Will the deal even make it to the end of the week? It's hard to see how there is any way for Chump to spin this as a win even if it does. The Nuke issue won't be resolved in 60 days, and I doubt they'll release anywhere near the $300B Iran wants to clean up thee mess, even if it's aactually their own money anyhow. The Israelis are more entrenched than ever, and Bibi actually looks moderate compared to his critics over there. The Insu7raance companies aren't gonna be lowering their rates anytime soon, so I doubt we see a flood of ships sail out of Hormuz either.
