Last year Iran was selling gasoline for less than 50 cents a gallon. This year a desperate regime hiked prices up to over a dollar. Meanwhile, Iranians pay about a tenth of what Americans do for electricity. Unlike Japan, Iran does not need nuclear power. It is already sitting on a mountain of gas and oil. Iran blew between $100 billion to $500 billion on its nuclear program. The Bushehr reactor alone cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $11 billion making it one of the most expensive in the world.

"Iran just wants a lower electricity bill."
The deal depends on the myth that our president is not a Muslim.

Doesn't everyone want cheaper electricity? I'm sure that's what it's about, the President wouldn't lie.
“Iran does not need nuclear power. It is already sitting on a mountain of gas and oil.”
Absolutely, and when Israel and it looks to be Saudi Arabia wipe out Iran’s nuclear and defensive sites, likely pummeling a large amount of gas and oil production in the process, Putin—whose attachments to Iran are weaponry, gas and oil—will become so enraged that what we read in Ezekiel 38-39 will quite possibly come to pass at that time.
“The Bushehr reactor alone cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $11 billion making it one of the most expensive in the world.”............
It would cost a lot less to destroy it if ANYONE had the fortitude to get it done.
Losing a paying customer (for a little while) would be offset by much higher energy prices. Putin won’t be too unhappy.
