International attention is feverishly focused on the question of "if" the P5+1 and Iran will be able to agree and on what. Any deal with Iran must demand significant dismantling of Iran's nuclear infrastructure, including eliminating the vast majority of Iran's centrifuge cascades and Low Enriched Uranium (LEU), terminating Iran's R&D efforts to create more advanced centrifuges, and moving the timeline for detectable breakout by Iran beyond a year. Less attention is focused on perhaps the more critical, strategically relevant question: What happens after a deal? What are the strategic implications for the United States, for our allies and partners? What are the strategic implications of a politically and economically resurgent Iran, and what are the goals of its leaders in the aftermath of such a deal?
