Iranian Hard Liners ("Death to America") Can't Believe Their Good Luck as Obama Caves on Nuke Deal

Multiple news reports show U.S. throwing in the towel for an agreement that would actually mean something all for the sake of a deal!

The state controlled Iranian news agency, FARS, reports:
Director General for Political Affairs at the Iranian Foreign Ministry and nuclear negotiator Hamid Baeidinejad said on Wednesday that the western powers have withdrawn from their previous positions in nuclear talks with Tehran."The other side has withdrawn from its positions compared with the past, otherwise we wouldn’t have stood at this point and stage in the talks at all," Baeidinejad told reporters in Tehran on Wednesday.
This is confirmed by other news reports. In the Washington Free Beacon:
The Obama administration is giving in to Iranian demands about the scope of its nuclear program as negotiators work to finalize a framework agreement in the coming days, according to sources familiar with the administration’s position in the negotiations.

U.S. negotiators are said to have given up ground on demands that Iran be forced to disclose the full range of its nuclear activities at the outset of a nuclear deal, a concession experts say would gut the verification the Obama administration has vowed would stand as the crux of a deal with Iran.
...
“Once again, in the face of Iran’s intransigence, the U.S. is leading an effort to cave even more toward Iran—this time by whitewashing Tehran’s decades of lying about nuclear weapons work and current lack of cooperation with the [International Atomic Energy Agency],” said one Western source briefed on the talks but who was not permitted to speak on record.

With the White House pressing to finalize a deal, U.S. diplomats have moved further away from their demands that Iran be subjected to oversight over its nuclear infrastructure.

“Instead of ensuring that Iran answers all the outstanding questions about the past and current military dimensions of their nuclear work in order to obtain sanctions relief, the U.S. is now revising down what they need to do,” said the source. “That is a terrible mistake—if we don’t have a baseline to judge their past work, we can’t tell if they are cheating in the future, and if they won’t answer now, before getting rewarded, why would they come clean in the future?”

The United States is now willing to let Iran keep many of its most controversial military sites closed to inspectors until international sanctions pressure has been lifted, according to sources.
In a nutshell, Iran can right on developing a bomb and we can't prove their not. We just have to take their word for it. As Time Magazine reported in 2012, Iranians in the know admit that talks and agreements are just a stalling tactic until Iran is ready to announce they have the bomb. Obama is playing right into their hands. Does he know know this? Does he not care? Does Obama have the slightest hint how tarnished the legacy of his failed presidency will be in the eyes of history once all his chickens have come home to roost?
