The mullahs just don't quit.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said its inspectors have departed Tehran and arrived safely to Vienna after Iran suspended cooperation in the wake of attacks on its nuclear program by Israel and the United States.
Newsweek has reached out to the Iranian Foreign Ministry for comment.
The move is a sign of the increasing uncertainty over Iran's nuclear program, with Tehran signaling it will press ahead with its nuclear program — including uranium enrichment — despite recent U.S. and Israeli strikes that damaged key nuclear facilities.
The departure of the inspectors means a reduction in international monitoring of what Iran is doing. It comes a day after Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed a law suspending cooperation with the IAEA, after parliament had voted in favor of the bill previously.
