"TEHRAN — As Iranians woke up Sunday to news many had never imagined they would hear, factions from across the nation’s political spectrum, including hard-liners who have preached increased isolation, said they welcomed the first nuclear deal in more than a decade between Iran and world powers.
“I feel great!” said Sajad Motaharnia, an English student, who was closely following the news in his apartment in downtown Tehran. “But I’m also sad when I think how we have lived under pressure for the past 10 years because of the bad decisions of some politicians.”
Across the Iranian capital, people could be seen smiling and discussing the news. “The coming six months will be like a honeymoon between Iran and America,” said Ahmad Teymouresi, a maintenance worker in a building complex. “If all goes well, they will marry; if it goes wrong, there will be a divorce.”
President Hassan Rouhani was the first Iranian politician to hail the agreement as a victory for the Islamic Republic, telling selected reporters that the deal had forced the “collapse of the sanctions regime.”

“The agreement is a very big deal,” said Amir Mohebbian, a political analyst who has advised many of Iran’s leaders. But he worried that the Obama administration would run into trouble with Congress over the deal. “Our leader, Khamenei, supports this agreement, which means that there will be no issues from the Iranian side,” he said. “We hope the Americans will also be able to honor their promises.”
Much more..

Another step toward Peace. A sense of hope for Iran and the rest of the world. May we all sleep better tonight. It may not be a done deal, however our feet are moving in the right direction!
Thank you Cha.
Peace~your post, she. I think it's important to know how the Iranian people are feeling about this.
I remember back the night before bushco was going to bomb Iraq I had a dream about the people in Iraq.. it was in a city so it could have been Baghdad. They were just living their lives and going about their daily business..
And, the next day the neo-cons unleashed unholy hell on them.
This First Step towards Diplomacy with Iran is a huge accomplishment for Peacemakers.
