The United Nations Security Council has unanimously endorsed the nuclear deal struck between Iran, the United States and five other world powers, the AP and Reuters are reporting.

Under the terms of the deal, the toughest sanctions put in place against Iran by the world body would be dismantled in exchange for restrictions on some of the country's nuclear activities.

This means the deal — which faces stiff opposition from Republican lawmakers and Israel — has cleared its first hurdle and the sanctions will be lifted after Iran complies with some of the terms.

Israel, Saudi, and Republicans and their brothers-in-denial, the mullahs of Iran, are literally the only ones in the world that object, and they can do really and exactly zilch about it.

The fact there is a so-called "world" beyond the boundaries of Fortress America is tough for some to swallow.

What goods are there that Iran can not purchase or trade for from The Rest of the World.....other bacon-flavored Fritos?

Meanwhile the American flag flys today over an American embassy in Havana.

Swallow on that.

2. The five other major powers, the UN, the IAEA, Europe...the world...Obama Democrats...are having a great summer.

"They have a right to vote, honestly. It's presumptuous of some people to suspect that France, Russia, China, Germany, Britain ought to do what the Congress tells them to do," Secretary of State John Kerry told ABC's "This Week." "They have a right to have a vote. But we prevailed on them to delay the implementation of that vote out of respect for our Congress so we wouldn't be jamming them."
