The full text of the agreement has been published.

The US promises to establish a $300 billion reconstruction fund (exact detailed TBD), the ending of all sanctions against Iran, and the end of all attacks against Iran and Lebanon.

Iran reiterates they won't make a nuclear bomb. Like they've always said. And also they will carry on as they are with their nuclear program in the meanwhile. Also they will open the Strait, eventually because there's a shitton of mines in it. And they will start talks about what to do with their uranium.

So, this is not even a full deal, all the importsnt stuff is yet to be discussed, and to even reach this point the US has to offer THREE HUNDRED BILLION and the ending of all sanctions. By any metric, most of all the ones used to judge Obama's deal, this is insane.

Inflation is rough. $2 billion in Iranian funds used to get you a pretty good deal, now it costs $300 billion to even say hi.

also israel just attacked lebanon again

I'm sure the US would like that, though I think Israel threatening to break the deal already by striking Lebanon is bad enough without it being, like, 200% airstrikes.

The one that may share the -100%? I suppose so.

I'd be more than shocked if Israel ever gives reparation money like that to Iran. They didn't agree to the ceasefire in the first place, and is still attacking in Lebanon.

This deal will probably fail within the 60 day period, and Iran will need to put in an extra clause that demands more money if Israel ever attacks again.

Can anyone point to a single clause in this agreement which is better than what was there before? Even a single point?

I'll answer it before people start trying to lie. There isn't. Not a single point in their agreement is better than it was before. Very few are even equal to what was there before. Now the US is removing all sanctions, giving 24 billion in unfrozen funds, and creating a $300 billion fund in reparations. It's the biggest unforced error in US history.
