Probably because the sanctions were stupid to begin with, just like the Iraq war. Except people are too arrogant to admit that they are wrong so they just negotiate deals to do it.

I think you may be right. There is a lot of complaining going on in the media about negotiating with the enemy but many people seem to have forgotten that we are the reason that the revolution happened to begin with. BP being shady as they were in their dealings with Iran had caused them to view the west with extreme distrust.
