Perhaps out of all this will come finally , the opportunity to discuss openly, Israel,s Nuclear arsenal.Thanks to Netanyahu and his fellow travelers in the Congress.Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.Way to go Bibi.

Deliberately ambiguous, too, as to which side his spies have penetrated:

“says that he knows what’s in the proposal that’s on the table right now, knows what is likely to be approved if it is approved – if it is approved – and he still doesn’t like it.”

[Interesting to know who asked THAT question.] Netanyahu probably has sources on both sides.

I’d like to see Obama/Kerry attack Netanyahu for WHY he doesn’t approve, because it isn’t peace Netanyahu wants, but escalation. Look at his quote from 2002: “I guarantee you [attacking Iraq] will have enormous positive reverberations on the region.” I bet he’d say, “I was right! We created chaos in which ISIS has taken hold, recruiting jihadis from around the world, exporting terror everywhere, making the clash of civilizations all the more inevitable.” “Positive” here, in Netanyahu-speak, is just like “good” when he described the effects of the 9/11 attacks.

Debating [or confronting each other as you might say in Hebrew on] Iran’s intentions is the issue-framing Netanyahu wants, because then he and Giuliani can bash Muslims hatefully, and Obama, Barack Hussein Obama, has to appear to be defending them. Let’s debate Netanyahu’s intentions, the Likud/Neocons’ intentions, because his/their guarantee in Iraq then gave us ISIS there now.

Turn the debate into the debate the Israelis should be having: is fanning the flames of anti-Israel, anti-West reaction within the Islamic world by continuous aggression against the Palestinians at home and through US/EU proxies throughout the region the way forward? Or is Netanyahu/Likud well past their expiration date?

I liked the report that documents are leaking out showing Israeli nuclear misbehavior. Let’s have a disclosure PER DAY about historic, outrageous Likud/Neocon misbehavior that has been painfully ignored/covered up/ swept under the rug by the US media and government offices, until Netanyahu cancels his address out of fear of being arrested upon arrival!

Start with why Cheney’s staff were issued Cipro prescriptions from the White House pharmacy to guard against Anthrax attacks on the evening of September 11, 2001. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/aponline/20011023/aponline201158_000.htm

Stop pretending that Likud/Neocon and US strategic objectives are the same, and we’re really just arguing tactics.

It is entirely possible Israel is aware of the state of the negotiation with Iran. “In yet another representative example, Wright writes that Wendy Sherman, head of the American delegation to the Baghdad negotiations of May 2012, chose first to go to Israel to debrief the country’s leadership before she returned to Washington”.

“As an anonymous American official explained to the Israeli newspaper Ha’aretz, ‘We updated the Israelis in detail before we updated our own government.’ http://thedailyjournalist.com/theinvestigative/attacking-iran-israel-the-lobby-or-obama/ In my opinion this is not about a nuclear Iran, rather Israel wants sanctions to stay in place fearing not only Iran’s growing conventional weaponry, but also its influence in the region. Iran joining the community of nations trading with the west in a normal way is anathema to the Israelis.

Old MacMocker had a farm
E-I-E-I-O
And on his farm he had a mock
E-I-E-I-O
With a mock-mock here
And a mock-mock there
Here a mock, there a mock
Everywhere a mock-mock
Old MacMocker had a farm
E-I-E-I-O

Say… is the article below part of the WH “mock” campaign too?
