The nuclear agreement almost looks too easy.
Spoilers may include:
- Iranian ability to "break out" ie quickly add U-235, or Plutonium to the devices and missile delivery means it already has.
- There may not be total consensus in Iran in favour of the agreement. The Revolutionary Guards Corps has staked much in developing the nuclear program and protecting it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Army_of_the_Guardians_of_the_Islamic_Revolution#Economic_activity
Hence extensive technical intelligence verification is needed to prevent Iranian factions from cheating.
A crude sigint method used was Site-Meter Collection of Iranian Nuclear Program. A simple sitemeter was used to refute Iranian denial they were not interested in a nuclear weapons program. Refuted through Submarine Matters studying the internet search habits of Atomic Energy Organization of Iran employees.
