Israel and the Democrats

In June 2010 the administration pushed, and the U.N. Security Council adopted, Resolution 1929, which “demands” that “Iran halt all enrichment activities.” But now the administration will endorse Iran’s “right” to an industrial-scale enrichment capability—a right, incidentally, that the administration denies to South Korea.

Resolution 1929 also states that Iran is “prohibited from undertaking any activity related to ballistic missiles.” But Iran continues to manufacture and test ballistic missiles, the Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei demands they be mass produced, and Iran’s top nuclear negotiator is adamant that “we are not ready to discuss this matter with any foreigner.” All of which gives the lie to weak State Department protestations that a deal will halt the ballistic missile program.

In December 2013, Mr. Obama personally assured a pro-Israel audience in Washington that, when it came to diplomacy, “no deal is better than a bad deal.” Now unnamed administration officials are selling the line that “the alternative to not having a deal is losing inspections, and an Iran ever-closer to having the fissile material to manufacture a weapon.” In other words, virtually any deal is better than no deal.

In March 2012, Mr. Obama insisted “my policy is not containment, my policy is to prevent them from getting a nuclear weapon.” He has said as much on some 20 other occasions. But the deal being contemplated now, with a sunset provision that will ultimately give Iran the right to enrich in whatever quantities and to whatever levels it wants, is neither prevention nor containment.

It’s facilitation.

Its not like he would lie, right?.../s

The plan the whole time was to do whatever it takes to wipe Israel off the face of the earth. Its what Satan wants because he hates God who loves Israel. Obama answers to Soros who answers to Satan. Its that simple.

I think it’s outstanding to see the anti-Semitic Nazi ‘RATS and Muslims put their hatred on display for the whole world to see.

I DO NOT understand why Republicans don’t REALLY stand up to this and have the traitor locked up and prosecuted. Yes, I mean bammy-boy.

This isn’t just politics here, it’s THE real threat to civilization. Allowing Iran to make nukes is world suicide.

Any AMERICAN who aides and abets them is a traitor, a lunatic who should be locked up forever.
