Breaking: France refuses to allow Obama to sell out to Iran on nuke talks
Legal Insurrection ^ | November 9, 2013 | Professor William A. Jacobson

With a fevered and frantic breathless pace, Obama via John Kerry has been pushing to sign a sell-out deal with Iran that would ease sanctions without shutting down Iran’s nuke program.

Benjamin Netanyahu was furious when he found out that Kerry had misrepresented what the proposed agreement would be, not to mention Kerry running at the mouth to bash Israel on the talks with the Palestinians.

Netanyahu was not alone. France was uncomfortable with the deal Kerry wanted to sign, even as Kerry huddled with the Iranians trying to get ‘er done.

Thank you France for at least buying us some time to prevent the historic sell out of Israel that was in the offing as recently as early today.

Via NY Times, Talks with Iran Fail to Produce a Nuclear Pact:

In the end, though, it was not only divisions between Iran and the major powers that prevented a deal, but fissures within the negotiating group. Earlier in the day, France objected strenuously that a proposed deal would do too little to curb Iran’s uranium enrichment or to stop the development of a nuclear reactor capable of producing plutonium.

“The Geneva meeting allowed us to advance, but we were not able to conclude because there are still some questions to be addressed,” the French foreign minister, Laurent Fabius, told reporters.

The Times of Israel reports:

Israel lobbied hard against the deal on Saturday, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Strategic Affairs Minister Yuval Steinitz reported to have spoken to representatives of some of the P5+1 nations. US President Barack Obama called Netanyahu on Friday after the prime minister publicly castigated the emerging deal as “very, very bad” and “dangerous” and said he had pleaded with Kerry not to sign it. Netanyahu also spoke to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The Jerusalem Post reports on how Israel was side-swiped as Obama-Kerry’s negotiating position collapsed in favor of the Iranians:

But over the weekend, Israel learned that the deal on the table is far worse than the one presented to it on Wednesday, and included four clauses for the easing of sanctions rather than just one. Israeli officials said they became furious when the details of the actual deal reached them, describing it as an “enormous mistake.”

“[US Secretary of State John] Kerry left with food for thought after a tough conversation with [Prime Minister Binyamin] Netanyahu,” the political source said.

At the same time, he stressed, the US did not deceive Israel. Instead, the Americans “folded” between Wednesday and the weekend, “maybe because they very much want to reach an agreement and be done with this,” he added.

When France makes you into a surrender monkey, you're a Sissy Mary.

It took fifty years...but finally, France has stood up for something. You’d have to go back to WW II or the Napoleonic-age to find that gutsy of a move. Next? The Germans. They will toss the five-hundred-pound gorilla off their backs and state the obvious.

Historic sellout of Israel in the making, 1938 all over again.

Why are Obama and Kerry so eager to get sodomized by Iran?

Good for France, showing backbone for the first time since 1870...

Shame on Obama, he's destroying everything.

And in so doing, makes America look mighty small.
How far we have fallen!

I read a fascinating article once on why liberals do things that are the exact opposite of logical. The author posits it’s because for thousands of years people did logical things and we’re still not living in utopia. Therefore doing the exact opposite of logical will lead us to utopia. Nobody, other than Jimmy Carter, ever thought to give them everything they wanted and Jimmy obviously didn’t go far enough.

On the other hand, it may be that our president is a traitor to America and western civilization and he wants a new Caliphate to rise up and turn us all into slaves. (I’m not sure where he thinks he’ll be in this new Caliphate, but he sees himself in some central role. Or, he believes it will not affect him. I suspect he lives in an imaginary world where he’s continuously accepting the Nobel prize.)

BS that the US did not deceive Israel.

Were it up to the 0bamaists, Jews worldwide would be on express cattle trains to Muslim run, uranium fueled crematories.

Make NO MISTAKE, world Jewry: 0bama and his ilk wish you ALL dead. Dead and erased from human memories.

0bama and his ilk would love to show Hitler to have been a piker.

A nuclear armed Iran is a major threat to Sunnidom including Saudi Arabia and Lebanon - the latter with longtime French interests.

The big question is why Obama is giving up on his allies in Saudi and the Muslim Brotherhood and linking up with shi’ite Iran?

I've been telling people for years not to under estimate the French. They suffered horribly in WW1, terrible generalship, they had not yet recovered from WW1 when WW2 came along. But ever since 300 BC the franks have been very good at the art of war. It is nice to see them back in the game and on the side of Western Civilization. Twice, once in 450ish AD (Huns) and again around 800ish AD (Islam) the Franks saved the West. They also saved the very young USA at Yorktown.

Viva la France!

Obama has even less backbone than France? Even liberals should be embarrassed.

The big question is, whose financial interests is Obama implementing and what exactly would France like to have as a concession. France's oil & gas industries were heavily involved in Iran and the embargo has certainly damaged a lot of contracts. Both the US and France are currently governed by socialists, and any good socialist knows that they need a lot of money to maintain control.

in the end, it's all about oil ...

Historians have wondered how the Roman Empire collapsed and the Dark Ages began. We are seeing it happen again...in real time.

BS.

Don’t even bring that sunni-shia song and dance to the table.

It has no relevance whatsoever, except in being used by the morons to cloud the issue.

There’s no secret about the muslim, or the democrat, and nothing special about Obama. He has his task, and his task is to transform America into a Caliphate built on a socialist model. Or bring about armageddon.

He won’t stop until he’s dead.

What can any country expect from John Kerry but a sell-out?

He sold out our troops an will sell out our country.

Obama was slick when he picked this traitor to lead American foreign policy and 94 Senators sold us out when they agreed to it.

It wasn’t the first time the French dealt with the traitor . Kerry was in France dealing with the Viet Cong while we were fighting them.
