According to the White House:

After many months [Ed: years?] of principled diplomacy, the P5+1 -- the United States, the United Kingdom, France, China, Russia and Germany -- along with the European Union, have achieved a long-term comprehensive nuclear deal with Iran that will verifiably prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon and ensure that Iran's nuclear program will be exclusively peaceful going forward.

Reported at BBC, NYT, Reuters, and everywhere else. President Obama spoke about the deal for 15 minutes this morning.

The deal has been praised by Syrian President Bashar Assad and slammed by the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Text of the "Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action."

    Editors, please STOP IT!, already, with the excessive use of unnecessary "Breaking News" tabs!

    Every news tidbit is NOT "Breaking News!!"

    If a spacecraft crashes or a president gets shot, it is "Breaking News". If some CEO resigns or some international deal is announced, unless we have some kind of real scoop with new information or whatever, let the damn thing play out until everyone really knows whats going on.

    Please stop cutting and pasting headlines as if it's the end of the world!

    This is part of the new Nexus feature. Blizzard will release a patch to address it.

    But it is. Two days from now, SN better not be running these particular links (for a newly posted article), or people will hoot in derision. That's breaking news.

    For (geo-)politics, this actually is breaking news. Yay!
    Now they can join the SCO [chinadaily.com.cn] ("Iran's path was blocked on Thursday when a fourth round of United Nations sanctions fell on Teheran for its nuclear activities. The SCO has stated any country under UN sanctions cannot be admitted.").
