In the situation, everything points toward Iran signing almost any deal that could result from current discussions. With one stroke, they will divide America twice. The first is from Israel, given the recent speech in Congress and the implicit position it manifested. The second division is in the US itself, with the discord and debate ensuing from the famous letter.
With so many of those whom Iran knows to be its opponents so against the agreement, there must be something advantageous to Iran in it, the Mullahs would have to conclude. What's more, if it lifts even a little the present restrictions their economy has to function under, the whole affair becomes the veritable 'no-brainer'.
I'm fairly certain this is not what the parties against the deal had in mind, but it would seem to be what they have achieved. They have done just about all they could to get Tehran to agree with Washington.
