“Moniz, a physicist, gave an example of his own role in negotiating the Iran nuclear deal.”
That wasn’t overly bright. He should have picked an example where they didn’t make fools of themselves!
Didn’t read the article because I won’t click on the WaPo, but read the short blurb. Agree, if Moinz is an example of the type scientist they employ, they are not scientists but political hacks masquerading as scientists — driven by their politics and not science. To use the Iran deal as an example of good science is absurd.
