Congress as "Iran Deal" Enforcer?

International & National Security Law Practice Group Teleforum

With final congressional review action on the Iran Deal just days away, is Congress empowered to act in a fully informed manner with the vital information pertinent to all side agreements? Is the IAEA predictably a trustworthy actor? What tools might the people’s branch of government utilize to provide oversight and enforcement capability if Iran is in violation? Prof. Alan Dershowitz and Ambassador Dennis Ross approach these questions from different perspectives drawn from deep historical and geopolitical experience. Prof. Dershowitz is author of a book entitled The Case Against the Iran Deal: How Can We Now Stop Iran from Getting Nukes? and Ambassador Ross most recently wrote "How to Put Some Teeth into The Nuclear Deal with Iran" with David Patraeus. 

Featuring:

  • Professor Alan Dershowtiz, Felix Frankfurter Professor of Law, Harvard Law School
  • Ambassador Dennis Ross, William Davidson Distinguished Fellow and Counselor, The Washington Institute
  • Jamil Jaffer, Moderator, Former Chief Counsel and Senior Advisor, Senate Foreign Relations Committee
