Have you ever seen a delayed reaction to a joke? It took a while, but the Iranians get it. Bibi has inadvertently provided a path for the lifting of all sanctions with no concessions by Iran.
Step one: The United States acts in bad faith by making unrealistic non-negotiable demands at a late stage in the negotiations without support of its negotiating partners, Germany, France, Great Britain, China and Russia.
Step two: The negotiations break down with everyone blaming the US.
Step three: The Republican Congress imposes meaningless unilateral sanctions. since the US does not buy Iranian oil.
Step four: The rest of our negotiating partners repeal or ignore all sanctions.
Step five: Iran continues to build nuclear weapon capability.
Step six: Israel bombs Iran, or talks the US into doing it.
Step seven: The unintended consequence is that the Arab world rallies around Iran, Iranian hardliners become more entrenched and the US standing in the Middle East further diminishes.
