In a rare interview with Israeli television, US Secretary of State John Kerry pledged Saturday that inspections to prevent Iran from attaining nuclear weapons would stay in place forever, and accused critics of the world powers emerging deal with Iran of hysteria.
Evidently seeking to placate the public in Israel, where Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been a bitter and relentless critic of the deal, Kerry pledged: We will not sign a deal that does not close off Irans pathways to a bomb and that doesnt give us the confidence to all of our experts, in fact to global experts that we will be able to know what Iran is doing and prevent them from getting a nuclear weapon.
I believe that where we are heading will in fact protect Israel, Kerry told Israels Channel 10 news, in an interview at the State Department in Washington. President Obama has absolutely pledged they will not get a nuclear weapon We will have inspectors in there every single day. That is not a 10-year deal. Thats forever.
In an apparent reference to Netanyahu who has called the West comatose and delusional in its negotiations with the Iranians, and who has charged that the US-led negotiations will yield a deal paving the way to an Iranian nuclear arsenal the secretary urged critics to look at the facts of the emerging accord.
Theres a lot of hysteria about this deal, Kerry claimed. People really need to look at the facts, and they need to look at the science of what is behind those facts.
The interview, which was excerpted Saturday night and will be broadcast in full on Sunday, came a day after The New York Times reported that the Obama Administration is also scrambling to assuage the fears of its Arab allies over the deal, and is considering a range of options to placate them, some of which could come at Israels expense.
According to The New York Times report, options under consideration include: a defense pact under which the US would commit to the defense of Arab allies if they come under attack from outside forces; joint training missions for American and Arab military forces; designating Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates as major non-NATO allies, a step that would loosen restrictions on weapons sales and offer a number of military advantages that are available only to NATO allies; and approving the sale of its advanced F-35 stealth fighter to the UAE three years after it is delivered to Israel.
The sale of F-35s could undermine Israels hitherto sacrosanct military edge, the paper noted.
The Iran deal is supposed to be signed by June 30. Obama is reportedly refusing to meet with Netanyahu before then.
“Hysteria”? That’s sexist.
Proponents of the Iran “deal” have their heads up their arses.
Hey, I’m a big fan of hysteria realizing Kerry actually is in a position of authority on this.
“Look at the FACTS?”
Iran says Kerry doesn’t KNOW the “facts”....
When as a nation, will we be free of that idiot?
amazing just how insulting ... as well as dumb ... this socalled ‘diplomat’ is
Kerry, when a rabid dictatorship tells you 5,000 times that you’re the Great Satan they intend to destroy .... you really might want to listen
when those Obama-Islamonazi=Iranian ABombs start flying... YOU are a resident of their Prime Target
Well he always did want to go down in history. When future survivors dig through the rubble after the radiation goes to sub-lethal levels, they’ll find his name near Mr. “Peace in our Time”.
Truly a great accomplishment...
supporters of the deal are brain dead idjits-
Liberals always freakout when they get caught ,LOL
Kerry would make a good greeter for a concentration camp, spewing lies and smiles as he gestures to the crowd saying this way to your reward.
.
Kerry is my idea of what the Grim Reaper would look like if he had a face.

Whose facts Johnny? Your rose tinted ones or Iran’s
nuclear ones? Death to America! Death to Israel!
Seems pretty hysterical to me.
God help the world after these morons get done with it.
Childish name calling. Must be a Democrat.
Opponents are acting a little hysterical if they think there is ANY way Israel will stand by and let Iran complete making a bomb. They didn’t with Iraq and Syria and, although quite a bit more difficult, they can achieve the same objective in Iran.
The thing that terrifies me is that this maladjusted monster in office would direct our fighters to attack Israeli fighters, which would be a sick nightmare.
Lurch needs to go back to his old job, serving the Adamses
President Obama has absolutely pledged they will not get a nuclear weapon “
So in other words they WILL get a nuclear weapon.
“Look at the facts of our secret treaty!” - Tehran John
How can the Iranians trust a man who is a traitor to his own country?
What’s Kerry’s IQ? Is he medicated? Did he get badly hit in the head before he ever went to Vietnam? Why does he have just an obtunded affect? All the people in the world who wake up and smell the coffee are “hysterical” to pudd’n face Kerry. When it’s crunch time, he sides with the mass murderers of the planet. How anyone elected to him to anything after his cowardly displays in Vietnam is a sad commentary on the U.S. voter.
