These were the same experts who trusted to live up to its side of the agreement. Israel's recent intel release, subject to verification, puts the lie to that. Plus Iran gets to continue to develop a delivery system for nukes. Keeping a weak, unenforceable agreement in place may serve a role as a symbol, but Iran wants a nuke and doesn't care about symbolism.
Your comments about "not giving a passing thought", that's BS too. I can't read minds like you can.
However, it certainly looks like the Administration is begging Iran to look at how the US is dealing with North Korea. They are applying heavy pressure to Iran but also demonstrating how the US can potentially try to work with another two bit, tin pot dictator wanna be.
