Iran deal a failure, says ex-national security chief (of Israel)
Times of Israel ^ | November 28, 2013, 12:55 pm | Stuart Winer

The former head of the Israeli National Security Council took to the pages of The New York Times to rail against the nuclear deal between world powers and Iran, calling the accord a diplomatic failure that missed the mark in diverting Tehran’s nuclear weapons program.

In an opinion piece published Thursday, Yaakov Amidror listed the reasons the agreement, signed in Geneva at the beginning of the week, had failed to achieve anything significant.

“Iran made only cosmetic concessions to preserve its primary goal, which is to continue enriching uranium,” he wrote. “The agreement represents a failure, not a triumph, of diplomacy.” …

Millions of innocent people in Israel, the US and Europe are going to pay a very steep price for this treason and lies.

The “deal” is obviously intended to set the stage for, probably even instigate, a war in the middle east. obama needs a war to distract people from the disaster that is Obamacare. That’s why the website was an intentional failure, why they are now delaying and stringing out implementation. A crashing wave of unhappy people might just force congress to act. A slower rising tide maybe not. Mix in a war, and he can maybe garner enough support to hold the Senate. Without the Senate, he finishes out with 100% gridlock. So he needs a war. He tried to pull us into Syria, but Putin out foxed him. If anyone deserves that peace prize, it is Putin, he saved trends of thousands of lives there. But bammy hasn’t given up. He brokered a deal so bad Israel and Saudi Arabia will be forced to act. Then he’ll pile on just in time for the elections. Look for all those obamacare democrats to be real hawks next year...

Won’t last. Look at his “war” with Syria and where that went.

Let’s face it. Our first clue that something is a failure is if Obama and Kerry are bragging about it.

A failure agreed to by two failures - O’Bozo and Horseface.

Several years ago, I proposed that the only way Iran could be persuaded to discontinue nuclear weapons development was if they had a major nuclear accident, that resulted in the horrible deaths of tens of thousands of Iranians.

Yet this horrible accident would perhaps save millions of innocent lives.

Since the right kind of accident is improbable, an artificial accident would have to be arranged. It would require a specially modified truck and a large, conventional bomb.

At first, the large, conventional bomb would have to be smuggled into a nuclear facility upwind of a major city. The bomb would have to contain enough radioactive isotopes of the right kind to provide trace evidence.

Then, in between the nuclear facility and the city, the truck would park. Panels in its roof would open and silent fans would blow radioactive isotopes into the air. After a given time, the panels would close, and the truck would be driven away and never be seen again.

And then the conventional bomb in the nuclear facility would explode, destroying most of it.

The Iranian public would become aware of the explosion, then shortly after, many people would develop radiation burns and poisoning, with many dying outright.

The Iranian government would deny everything, which would change nothing, as more and more people died. The international community would demand to be allowed in to investigate. And all evidence would conclusively point to nuclear weapons production.

Do you really think Obama is that good at strategy? I think he’s just doing what comes naturally for a godless liberal.

Here is the actual agreement:

We all need to educate ourselves and stop listening to loose talk. Think for yourselves everyone.

Thinking for oneself is what this site is about. If you actually think Iran’s going to abide by that agreement, then you are nearly alone on this forum.

And accusing Israel of “loose talk” will win you no friends here; the opposite, rather. (Aren’t you one of those people that broadcasts the propaganda of so-called “Palestinians” on here?)

I expect nothing from the Iran, that way I’m never disappointed.

I’ve posted nearly 3,000 articles over the last 10 years.

I have won friends the old fashioned way, by offering supporting documents.

I don’t offer opinion pieces, particularly from the Israeli propaganda machine, as either news or fact.

I don’t broadcast anyone’s propaganda as you have done. Post them in the editorial section.

Read the actual agreement, compare to the articles you have posted, explain the differences.

You’ve called Israel liars while providing no evidence of same, while at the same time defending the indefensible. You shall bear God’s rebuke for that.

I posted the actual agreement. The article you posted called the agreement “cosmetic concessions”.

The actual agreement Leaves inoperable roughly half of installed centrifuges at Natanz and three-quarters of installed centrifuges at Fordow, so they cannot be used to enrich uranium.

How is that cosmetic? Read the agreement, offer your analysis instead of echoing the talking points of others.

What you posted was something that Iran is going to flout.

And your anti-Israel stance is really getting tiresome.
