No, this is not a satire article from The Onion.
We have actually agreed to let Iran inspect it's own nuclear site, and report back to us whether they have found any evidence they were developing a Bomb there.
I'll have to check again. This HAS to be a joke from The Onion.
In a related story, Barack Obama has agreed that Hillary Clinton can be the sole inspector to look through her own emails and tell us whether any of them were classified, or related to the American deaths in Benghazi etc.
And John Dean has agreed that Richard Nixon will be the only one allowed access to his White House tapes, to tell us whether he did anything illegal.
The only significant difference in these cases, is that neither Hillary nor Nixon has threatened to wipe other nations off the map.
Does the Obama administration actually think people will go along with this as a "legitimate inspection that puts the accusations to rest"?

AP Exclusive: UN to let Iran inspect alleged nuke work site

VIENNA (AP) -- Iran, in an unusual arrangement, will be allowed to use its own experts to inspect a site it allegedly used to develop nuclear arms under a secret agreement with the U.N. agency that normally carries out such work, according to a document seen by The Associated Press.
Some countries are required to do no more than give a yearly accounting of the nuclear material they possess. But nations- like Iran - suspected of possible proliferation are under greater scrutiny that can include stringent inspections.
But the agreement diverges from normal inspection procedures between the IAEA and a member country by essentially ceding the agency's investigative authority to Iran. It allows Tehran to employ its own experts and equipment in the search for evidence for activities that it has consistently denied - trying to develop nuclear weapons.
