CDZ Does John Kerry deserve a Nobel Peace Prize?

[MeBelle]

NO! Nothing was finalized.

 

[MeBelle]

President Obama called the deal an "historic understanding" that was "a long time coming."

Speaking in the White House Rose Garden, he said it "shuts down" Iran's path to a bomb using enriched uranium.

"This deal was not based on trust," the president said. "It was based on unprecedented verification."

If and when a final agreement is reached, he said, "It will make our country, our allies and our world safer."

Why wasn't this part of the article quoted?

What exactly do you mean?

Iran and six world powers Thursday agreed on "key parameters" for resolving a long-standing dispute over Iran's nuclear program, which has left the Islamic nation economically isolated.
"Today we have taken a decisive step. We have reached solutions on key parameters for a comprehensive future nuclear deal," said European Union Foreign Affairs Minister Federica Mogherini, in formally announcing the deal.
She said Iran would not produce weapons grade fuel and that international monitors will have enhanced access to Iran's nuclear facilities.
She also said that sanctions would be "terminated" but did not specify the timetable, which has been a key sticking point of the negotiations. Iran wants them lifted immediately, while the United States wants most of them in place until Iran follows through on terms of the deal.

The OP quotes the article but stops short the last two sentences I quoted.

Abiding by the copyright rules. He DID post the link so it coudl be read in its entirety.

As to the OP -

I'm not qualified to judge whether he should get the Nobel Peace Prize but he is a war hero who has worked his butt off to make our world safer, to keep us out of another endless war, save countless innocent lives and move us forward to the next step.

Is it DONE?

No..

And sadly, the Repub traitors have sabotaged the US efforts toward peace, probably beyond anything that is fix-able.

Both both he and our president have given it their best shot and they are to be commended for that - just as Ronnie (Blessed Be His Name) Ray-Gun was when he worked toward the same end.

We now have an agreement between key powers on how to proceed with Iran. If they comply, economic sanctions will be lifted and make their lives better.
If they don't comply.......sanctions return and then some

If it works, the threat of a nuclear Iran is gone. If it doesn't.......we go back to where we were before

BUT --

If and when this agreement is finalized, it will be one the most important things Obama has done - and considering his truly amazing accomplishments, that's saying something.

But, it could all be undone by the Republicans. That letter is only the beginning of their efforts to weaken and undermine the US on the world stage - bet on it.

So ....do you like it or not?

Of course there are further negotiations to be done. If it plays out, it can help stabilize the region

Aren't you proud of our President?

I'll be impressed when it's finalized. This is like celebrating the birth of a child three months before it's born.

 

[B. Kidd]

I think the free toaster that Kerry said he'd throw in will clinch the deal.

 

[rightwinger]

Settling things in the region by invasion and them treating us as "liberators" is not always the answer

Sometimes negotiation is the way to go

 

[Katzndogz]

A Nobel was given to obama for nothing. I don't know if they give prizes for total failure.

 

[Two Thumbs]

U.S. Iran reach historic nuclear framework agreement

Through his hard work and tough negotiations, John Kerry has just made the whole world safer





.

no and no he hasn't

 

[HenryBHough]

Kerry definitely should be a candidate!

On the very first day they open the nominations for "The Nobel Appeasement Award".

 

[9thIDdoc]

Kerry is blatantly anti-American and has been for decades.
His actions still merit a trial quickly followed by a firing squad. Better late than never.

 

[regent]

History books are written about the wars we fought and the heroes involved, but has anyone written a history of the wars we didn't fight and the heroes involved in those periods of peace?

 

[there4eyeM]

At best, Kerry has only been doing his job. It doesn't merit a Nobel prize for him any more than for the Iranians.
We should be friends with Iran. We should acknowledge the part America played in screwing up their country (the coup d'état in '53) and the region, etc. We should develop contacts directly with the population. We should avoid confrontation with the regime in place. We should realize that their government, like many in the world, is primarily concerned with maintaining itself in place and not in serving the best interests of people.

bottom line: peace is cheap, war is very, very dear.

Very good point

Conservatives look at accomplishments in terms of whoo you bombed and what nations you conquered

What goes on behind the scenes to avert war is where the real heroes are
