Israel and Its Neighbors Need an Iran Deal Overhaul
(Wall Street Journal) Israeli UN Ambassador Danny Danon - After the intelligence revealed Monday by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, one thing is clearer than ever: The Iranian regime has lied repeatedly about its nuclear program and cannot be trusted. The ideal outcome would be a complete overhaul of the JCPOA to close the gaping loopholes that caused Israel to object to the pact from its outset. First, international inspectors must be granted full and uninhibited access to all suspicious nuclear sites in Iran. Second, monitoring and increased oversight are needed over the financial windfall awarded to Iran, the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism. Third, Iran must end the development and testing of its advanced ballistic missile program. Finally, the sunset clause must be removed so the international community has time to act if Iran makes the final leap toward becoming a nuclear superpower.
