U.S. Senate bill in April 2015 giving Congress final review authority over the nuclear deal with Iran
04/14/2015
With enough Democrats favoring a Congressional review of the nuclear deal with Iran to get the 67 votes to overide a presidential veto, a bipartisan compromise accepted by the White House provides for a 30 day review if the deal is submitted by July 9, 2015. The bill is the work of Senators Cardin and Corker in the U.S. Foreign Relations Committee.

Verification by UN agency IAEA as the weak point in the nuclear agreement with Iran reached in April 2015
04/04/2015
International inspectors from the UN's agency will face the same problems they faced in Iraq and in an earlier period in Iran, say critics of the nuclear agreement. With the Security Council divided, and China, Russia opposing a "snap back" in sanctions, the "snap back" option may not work in the future. If German and French companies enter the Iranian market it will be diffficult to get Germany and France to support a reimposition of sanctions. As a result the entire framework of the agreement rests on verification and the record on this is weak.

U.S. president Obama and Israel's prime minister Netanyahu- serious disagreement over sanctions on Iran in 2015
01/27/2015
With Saudi Arabia's effort to lower oil prices causing more damage to the Iranian economy and difficult negotiations with Iran continuing on preventing the development of nuclear weapnons, president Obama seeks more time for negotiations. Israeli prime minister Netanyahu is pushing for more sanctions on Iran, which could derail the negotiations. Netanyahu accepted an invitation from Republican Speaker Boehner to address Congress in 2015, creating a divide between Congress and the U.S. president on policy towards Iran.

The major factor in the 2015 Iran nuclear negotiations- a 12 month non-negotiable "breakout window" and the checks needed to enforce it
03/21/2015
The "breakout window" is a term that refers to the time it would take for Iran to break out of an agreement controlling its weapons development and rushing towards development of a nuclear weapon. Britain, France and the U.S. agree that a minimum of 12 months is needed. Surveillance efforts will have to be intensified even with a deal to see that it is enforced.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
