I'm not going to dissect the document but from the various summaries I've read some provisions last five years, 10, 15, and some 20. It is claimed some are perpetual but obviously, it becomes difficult or impossible to enforce a provision like that.

Obama said of the agreement, that "Iran will not be able to use its advanced centrifuges to produce enriched Uranium for the next decade (10 years, last I checked)."

What do you make of that in the context of the following:

a) If they can get by ten years without enriching, why can't they get by indefinitely without it?

b) If it is to our advantage for them to not enrich for 10 years, why is the advantage not greater for 20 years?
