Iran does whatever it pleases

A security expert has criticized the White House for failing to challenge Iranian interpretations of the P 5+1 agreement.
Dr. Emily Landau, who heads the Arms Control and Regional Security Program at the Institute for National Security Studies, expressed concern over the White House’s ongoing silence in the face of Iranian attempts to redefine the Geneva agreement after its signing.
Landau cited recent examples of Iranian interpretations of the agreement that contradict claims put forward by the US, including the “immediate Iranian rejection of the White House fact sheet [on the Geneva interim accord].”
According to Iran’s publication of its own interpretation of what was achieved in Geneva and an announcement by Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, within days of the agreement, Iran will continue construction work at Arak.
On Monday, Landau noted, Iran announced that it is testing its advanced new-generation centrifuges.
All the while, Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei is continuing to air “horrific rhetoric,” Landau said.
Well, yeah, unless the Iranian interpretation is the real one and Obama and Kerry are just lying. Where have I heard that possibility before?
