Yes, it did briefly. But then I noted that they've been caught lying multiple times. They "forgot" to mention several undisclosed and later discovered nuclear facilities. They said they had not processed any uranium with their centrifuges, yet IAEA sniffers found elevated levels of radiation emissions indicating that they had indeed processed fuel. They claim that they have peaceful intentions, yet they say they have a legitimate right to mastery of the entire fuel cycle, which is only necessary if they want to produce a nuclear bomb. Kerry suggests a solution by offering to control the fuel and allowing them nuclear power generation, but that suggestion is rejected.

Nope. Every indication is that Iran is engaged in barely clandestine nuclear weapons development. If they were serious about staying nuke free, then they'd work with the Europeans and hammer out a deal. Every concession they've made has been designed to buy more time. You have to ask yourself, time for what? This has been going on for 2 years now. Patience has its limits and we cannot allow them just enough time to finish their efforts.

Here's an article from almost 2 years ago:

How much time are you willing to give Iran? Enough to let them go nuclear? Tejek, you really should pull off those rose colored glasses. Iran's mullahs are dangerous and they fully intend to develop a nuke. That is will be the single worst thing to happen to U.S. security since Russia started moving missiles to Cuba in the Cuban Missile Crisis under Kennedy.
