Our sad small town newspaper, the Arizona Daily Star, published an above-the-fold headline today “Deal let’s Iran self inspect nuke site” by AP reporter George Jahn, with a thumbnail photo of a howling mad Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX). This article does not appear to be linked on its “worst web site of any newspaper in America,” so here is a link to the AP Exclusive: UN to let Iran inspect alleged nuke work site.
A quick Internet search shows that all the usual suspects in the conservative media entertainment complex have latched onto this AP “exclusive” as part of its propaganda against the P5+1 world powers nuclear agreement with Iran, and presumable in favor of the alternative of war with Iran.
Just one big problem: The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) says the AP (All Propaganda) report is not only wrong but it is a “misrepresentation.” IAEA says report Iran to inspect own military site is ‘misrepresentation’:
The U.N. nuclear watchdog chief on Thursday rejected as “a misrepresentation” suggestions Iran would inspect its own Parchin military site on the agency’s behalf, an issue that could help make or break Tehran’s nuclear deal with big powers.
Without International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) confirmation that Iran is keeping promises enshrined in the landmark July 14 nuclear accord, Tehran will not be granted much-needed relief from international economic sanctions.
