Trust? Not much there for Obama or for Iran

It's probably a good thing the Iranian nuclear deal announced yesterday isn't built on trust, as President Obama pointed out – because there's very little of that to be found in what the White House is saying about the deal.
In an announcement from the White House Tuesday morning, President Barack Obama said every path to a nuclear weapon will be cut off for Iran under the historic agreement brokered in Vienna. He addressed skeptics saying: "This deal is not built on trust. It is built on verification." And the agreement with Iran, he said, ensures that Iran "will not develop a nuclear weapon."
However, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the world is now a "much more dangerous place" and called Tuesday's agreement a "stunning historic mistake." He told reporters in Jerusalem that by removing sanctions, the deal will give Iran billions of dollars to support what he calls a worldwide terrorism network.
He also pointed out that the deal "repeats the mistakes" of an earlier international agreement with North Korea, in which international inspections failed to prevent the country from developing a nuclear weapons capability.
In the U.S., even some of Obama's fellow Democrats in Congress are skeptical, while Republicans are openly hostile to the landmark nuclear deal with Iran.
