Okay, but here's the thing.
Now Bloomberg and CNN have released a version of the text.
The White House claims this is not the text, but will not release the text still and may never release the text for all we know.
Now, I have a wide variety of sources who say that this text is substantially identical to the final text.
And we have multiple versions, all of which basically match.
So now the White House's move is to claim that the text doesn't matter.
So before, you couldn't judge unless you got the text.
Now that we have versions of the text floating around, it turns out that even the text doesn't matter.
So you can't judge based on the text.
And you also can't judge based on the not text.
This is what we call a catch-22.
It has now created an unfalsifiable premise that the deal is good.
Not going to do that.
So CNN is reporting that US negotiators are working to quickly release the text of the agreement between Washington and Tehran, even as they downplay the significance of the specific language in the document.
The officials described the text of the agreement as incredibly vague, mainly intended to create a more favorable environment for the highly technical in-person talks to come.
They added that the framework is aimed at providing Iran the ability to sell it politically to their internal audience.
So, I mean, first of all, we should point out at this point that that's bullshit.
The reason I say that's bullshit is because you know who doesn't care about their internal audience?
the Iranian government, which shoots its internal audience.
