Iran Complies with Nuclear Deal; Sanctions Are Lifted

On a more speculative note, regarding Saudi Arabia, this could indirectly lead to the declassification of the full 9/11 report. We know that SA was heavily involved but absolutely could not risk our relationship with them by releasing the full findings.

Perhaps now that we have more options in the Middle East, we can recalibrate towards the truth.

(Left out of original comment because this is wild speculation.)

Exactly! The IranDeal was all about giving US more options in mideast. Saudis had ensure to maintain their monopoly as being the only US option and as a result they could get away with indirectly funding and supporting ISIS, etc. There is probably "more" stuff that will come out from US-Iran before Obama's end of term as this relationship will expand his legacy and it will provide the Iranian counterpart opportunity to show they are ready to be part of the world.

It is excellent because the US should really NOT fall into being only a Shia or Sunni ally. We do not want a stake in that conflict.
