I heard positives from John Kerry this morning on This Week. The most obvious one was that sanctions haven't stopped Iran from exploding their number of centrifuges from about 164 in 2003 to 19,000 now, and they seem to be saying that this plan will stop that growth. And there will be daily inspections -- though I heard another source say the scope of those daily inspections was watered down from an earlier stated ideal.
Here's a blog from John Bolton suggesting it was called a win because Obama couldn't handle another loss in his foreign policy column.

On This Week the panel, left and right, basically agreed that before this agreement Iran was about one to two months away from being able to make a big push toward weaponization, and now they'll be about two to four months away from being able to make that push.
My plan is to stay open-minded about this, but if Israel and Saudi Arabia are concerned I'm concerned.
I welcome opinions from across the spectrum to help me understand what the issues are here.
