Sunday November 24th Iran signed an agreement with a delegation of foreign powers, including The United States, to "curb" their nuclear program in exchange for loosening sanctions against the nation.

This story is still fresh, but so far the stories I have been reading are showering this deal with youthful optimism. The Reuters article above paints a picture of hard working diplomats, working into the wee hours of the morning, they even referenced that their negotiations continued well after the time they had scheduled the banquet rooms and therefore had to hear the songs being sung by a band in an adjacent banquet room....Another article I read from CNN paints John Kerry as the knight in white armor how gathered all the nations together and was the glue that held the talks together.
I wonder how this "deal"will be perceived in the coming months. Will the media still be painting the story as "historic" in six months when it is set to expire?
