A new Wall Street Journal/NBC News Poll shows that almost three quarter of the American people doubt that the current nuclear negotiations with Iran will bear any fruit an stop Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.
According to the Poll, 71 percent think that negotiations with Tehran will not prevent the regime in Tehran from developing nuclear weapons while the 24 percent believe that the talks will prevent mullahs from developing such weapons, and 5 percent were not sure.
The poll suggests that Americans are more skeptical of a deal with Iran than they were of North Korea.
A similar WSJ/NBC poll conducted in 2007 showed that 62 percent thought that normalizing relations with North Korea would prevent that nation from developing nuclear weapons.
In an open letter to the leaders of the Iranian regime, 47 Republican senators on Monday warned that any nuclear deal brokered without their approval could be undone “with the stroke of a pen.”
The letter, authored by Republican Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton and co-signed by 46 other Republican lawmakers, seeks to inform the regime’s leaders that any nuclear agreement involving the United States could face constitutional hurdles.
