Israeli president warns of isolation over row with US on Iran
But Israel has yet to agree to opening talks, the Obama administration said.
Conn Hallinan: I was a little surprised.
“If the West and Iran come to a complete understanding and agreement on this issue, sanctions would be the first to be lifted”, Abshenass said. It’s the Netanyahu government that is not.
J Street has a history of taking significant sums of money from anti-Israel sources-and lying about it. For example, J Street continuously lied about its funding from George Soros, who has blamed Israel and the Jewish people for the rise of global anti-Semitism. The Russians are negotiating, the English are negotiating, the French, the Germans, the Chinese are negotiating. Europe and the Security Council are behind it all the way.
The Israelis don’t particularly care. “We’ll see how that plays out”.
Obama pointedly refused to meet Netanyahu when he travelled to Washington in March to argue against the deal before the Republican-dominated US Congress. Where is it going to end?
Netanyahu warned ministers on Tuesday that his government would collapse if they did not put a stop to their fiscal demands and rally behind the budget. So to friends of Israel and the Israeli people, I say this. There is a really nasty fight.
Rep. Boehner, R-Ohio, organized the speech with Netanyahu and the Israeli ambassador, Ron Dermer, and asked them to keep it secret until he announced the invitation six weeks in advance.
This whole situation makes me sick. Israel’s banks have the dubious reputation of more than 200 service charges, many of which are unknown by the average customer. What do you read into this announcement?
” Doing so would “allow us to prepare to face the numerous challenges that will result from the agreement”, the petition says”.
Well, for one thing, numerous Ba’ath party members that we ousted during the invasion – they became what we know now as ISIS in the wake of a destabilized Iraq.
“I have not and I don’t intend to until early September”, Hoyer said when asked if he has made up his mind about the nuclear deal between world powers and Iran.
Congress received 60 days to review and concur on the treaty with Iran (“Rep. Engel cautious on Iran nuclear deal, July 30)”.
RT: How likely is Congress to approve the deal after Obama’s strong words? Where does the truth lie?
“We can enhance support for areas like missile defense, information sharing, interdiction, all to help meet Israel’s pressing security needs”, Obama said. But that’s just not the case. Absent a deal, Iran will continue to develop its nuclear program, and there will soon be calls for military strikes.
