 Senate Democratic leadership, takings its cue from AIPAC, would not agree, so Paul blocked it.The lesson is obvious. AIPAC will not permit Congress to lift sanctions no matter what the administration achieves with the Iranians. That means "no deal" unless Obama decides to stand up to the lobby, the Netanyahu government, and their cutouts on the Hill.That seems unlikely.

That would kill negotiations, preserve the status quo and prevent Obama from having to offend some of his militant Netanyahu-adoring donors.
