One of the first thing Cruz does as President is discontinue all funds to the UN and give them 6 months to get the hell out of the United States. That club of Muslims and communists dictators are completely useless.

This means that the US UN ambassador voted for the deal. I guess the US Senate is now obsolete and no longer plays a role in shaping US foriegn policy or approving US treaties/agreements. Way to go GOP controlled US Senate. Why don’t yall just go home.

That’s it?

Where is this so called deal posted on line? Or is it classified too, so Americans can’t judge for themselves?

This pathetic wallow of dictators, tyrants and degenerates thinks it is “good”. You can be guaranteed that it is “bad”.

It's time to defund and
expel this anti-American thing.

But it will never happen,
we have voted for a congress bent
on the destruction of America.,

They are too busy filling their pockets
with our money,

They are totally un-aware that
they are fulfilling End Times prophesy.

The UN Security Council vote is not “the end of the story,” Netanyahu said. “So long as US Congress sanctions are in place, and noting that the US economy is 40 times larger than Iran’s, Iran will need to make concessions.”

Netanyahu slammed the Security Council vote as “hypocrisy,” stressing that Tehran “systematically violates UN resolutions and calls for the destruction of Israel — a member of the UN.”

The prime minister said many countries in the Middle East see “eye-to-eye with Israel” on the nuclear deal. “History has proven that even when the world is united, it is not necessarily right,” he said.

“They say this agreement pushes war away but in fact it brings war closer. Firstly, because Iran will receive hundreds of billions of dollars and already now states openly that it will use this money to fund its terror proxies. Secondly, [the deal] will start a nuclear arms race in the Middle East,” Netanyahu said.

From your link, Seek and Find. Thank you!

Evidently, BiBi's message is not being heard — though it's entirely on the mark.

What really galls me is this idiotic nonsense being perpetrated in the U.N. would have stopped instantly, had Ambassador Power exercised her veto.

But methinks she was not at liberty to do so. According to Michael Oren, in his recently published book Ally: My Journey Across the American-Israeli Divide, President Obama has "made his administration the most centralized since World War II."

Of Obama, Oren says, "His pervasive belief in the power of words, instilled by his legal studies, reminded me of the ancient Aramaic incantation 'Abracadabra,' meaning 'I speak, therefore I create.'" Oren suggests the president is moreover very likely a control freak, more interested in ideology than policy-making. And all administration decisions flow from the top — that is, directly from the Oval Office. Thus I gather Samantha Power is just a factotum carrying out the president's directions.

The entire point of this non-exercise is to do an end-run around the Senate. Thus Power's non-veto entails sacrificing all due process under the Constitution, conveying ratification of a treaty that purportedly binds the U.S., to an international body for determination, a body that has little sympathy, and in many cases active antipathy, for U.S. interests or its order of liberty under law.

Yet Bibi distinctly shares these values. And in the above italics, he urges push-back from the Senate and the House. This entails first, the Senate reject his "plan," and then override his presidential veto. That failing, the House has the power of the purse-strings; it can independently of the president develop legislation imposing additional sanctions, and tenaciously defend the sanctions it has already passed that are current statutory law.

If the Senate rejects this "plan," or "Executive Agreement" — which is still a treaty in all its ramifications — it wouldn't be the first time the Senate refused to ratify a treaty. C.f., the Treaty of Versaille, or Kyoto.

Other nations were signatories, and so these treaties were implemented. But since the Senate declined to make the U.S. a signatory, we are not bound by their terms.

We the people had better do some push-back here; for we are being "sold down the river," at the same time that the world is being "transformed" in ways infinitely dangerous to our historic, sovereign national interests.

Obama and the Security Council just showed us clearly that the “Global Community and it's Leadership” trumps the people of this country. A serious spoonful of Global Governance!

There is no reason whatsoever the Security Counsel should have had this before our representatives....none. It was another stake in the heart of our Republics Sovereignty...
