The US aren't the only ones who care about Iran and its nuclear ambitions, yet it is only they (well, along Iran's sworn enemies obviously) who insist on blowing up a deal that was doing fine for "something better" (undefined) for no obvious reason. (Of course even in the US there are plenty of well informed people in the government and military who were not in favor of terminating the deal either)
The world is a lot bigger than the US and ignoring long standing relationships with strong allies with this obvious buffoonery is worse for the US than it is for Iran.
From your reference:
But what about Iran’s non-nuclear facilities? Opponents of the JCPOA criticize the lack of
“anytime, anywhere” inspections of all suspicious facilities. But Iran (or any other country,
for that matter) would never have accepted such an obligation, making it impossible to
reach an agreement. Iran legitimately wanted to protect its sensitive military facilities and
defences, some of which have nothing to do with its nuclear programme. The IAEA’s
monitoring of Iran is anyhow complemented by national intelligence organizations, which
can be expected to continue to closely monitor the country’s nuclear and military sites.
My highlight - so some of which DO have something to do with their nuclear program
Checks only after a notice period of 24 days in sites already known, and in new 'suspicious' sites on military facilities there is no access for anyone.
That's a really strong verification regime.
So Israel creates access and guess what
Israel finds evidence of Iran Nuclear Subterfuge
