I
would hope and expect to see congress take a critical look at
the Iran nuclear agreement before voting to accept or reject the
pact. What I also expect, but hope not to see, is an irrational and
politically based attack on the agreement by right of center
political candidates jockeying for position and political points.
No
agreement is perfect especially when disparate nations such as
Russia, China and the U.S. attempt to reach any accord.
We can expect Mr. Netanyahu,
the
Israeli Prime Minister, to cry foul like a wounded
banshee but that noise is pro forma and should be ignored by congress
and the American public.
In
my personal opinion this imperfect agreement is much preferable to
the alternative of a military solution that may have unknown
consequences in the Middle East and beyond.
