An IAEA spokesman said that in addition to inspections of the new Iranian nuclear facility, there was a deal plan to allow Russia to take some of Iran's processed uranium and enrich it to higher levels to fuel a research reactor in Tehran. Western officials said Iran agreed to the plan at Thursday's meeting, a potentially significant move that would show greater flexibility by both sides. Obama noted the deal in comments on the meeting. But Mehdi Saffare, Iran's ambassador to Britain and a member of the Iranian delegation at the talks, said Iran had not yet agreed to such a plan.

There are those who say even the inspections are bogus because it Iran gives Iran the time to hide crucial evidence

David Albright, a former international weapons inspector and president of the Washington-based Institute for Science and International Security, said it would probably take Iran some time to conceal activities. But, "if you have a month, you have the time," he said.

But there is another voice, this one within Iran who is warning about the Iranians ability to cut an honest deal. Those who are the leaders of the nascent democracy movement in Iran are warning Western leaders not to be fooled by Ahmdinejad’s latest concessions:

Heard an author, John Limbert, say on CSPAN today that Obama is "ten steps ahead of the rest of us" on Iran. Of course Limbert was a foreign service guy for 30 odd years, so he can be forgiven for his shortsighted ignorance.

Obama is just begging to be fooled.

Make no mistake, Obama was not fooled the first time. He knows full well what's happening over there and any protestations you hear from him are lip service, nothing more. It's the old “say yes, do no” trick. He makes it look like he's on top of it, but he's doing nothing of any consequence to solve the problem.
