The Crazy Celebration Night In Teheran Streets.

Hundreds of people gathered in the streets in the middle of the night, chanting hyms and celebrating Irand Nucleat Deal, and moreover, a possible end of sanctions and the beginning of new hopes.
FM Zarif has been welcomed back this morning as a national hero.
So good news!
Kerry-Zarif and the others. Global Peace Heroes now.
May be all negociators be thanked as they deserves.

but then again, they didn't get all the GOP Senators to sign that idiotic letter.

I sincerely hope enough of them manage to connect with reality enough to approve it.

Congress can balk all it wants, all it means is that the US shows itself to be incapable of negotiating in good faith - the rest of the world will carry on without us on this.

(kind of a super-'fast track' with no congressional involvement at all) like a treaty would.

Of course, that is also why those 47 GOP senators could write that the agreement would not survive the election of a republican president in 2016 because the executive agreement would be summarily trashed.

I didn't think I was saying anything that wasn't obvious to most of us, so feel free to attribute it any way you want.

Tell 'em the author of "The Time Cellar" said it. THAT'll get 'em scratching their heads!

We'll pick up hitchhikers on the way to the nudist beach, and let our overgrown hair flap in the breeze, just to stick it to "the man".

It is absolutely time to celebrate - even little catious at first - but it is time - as peace might break out between Iran and USA - it is a long way untill trust is made between USA and Iran - but it can be used as a bulding block, to excactly that - trust... And in time - maybe even a form of friendship - where Iran and US respect eatch others more than they currently does..

Hardliners of both sides is maybe angry as they can be with it - but at least most of the peapole in Iran want Peace instead of war - and that is progress....
