Though the Obama Administration has used the threat of military assaults on Iran the way past administrations might have used punctuation, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is planning to formally complain to Vice President Joe Biden that they’re not threatening Iran often enough.
The two will be meeting in New Orleans as part of a state visit by the Israeli PM, and official say Netanyahu is planning to reiterate his outrage at the upcoming P5+1 talks with Iran and to also condemn the UN Security Council sanctions against Iran as not nearly strong enough.
The centerpiece of his prepared talking points, however, will clearly be the demand for the administration to increase the number and “credibility” of its threats to attack Iran, nominally to punish the nation for its civilian nuclear program.
Israel has claimed Iran’s nuclear program is a plot to create nuclear weapon. The Iranian program is under IAEA supervision, however, and has repeatedly been certified as not diverting any material by IAEA officials. Israel, by contrast, refuses to allow its nuclear program to face any international scrutiny, and is known to possess a massive arsenal of nuclear weapons, though it is not a member of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty.
Will Biden continue to play the part of Bibis Beyotch? So far he has.
LMAO! YA go to new orleans and demand americans pay for more housing in the settlements.
maybe we can build them some new levies on the jordan.
I bet the Pentagon will push back on this. Mullen and Gates don't seem like they really want to pursue a war with Iran anytime soon. That's just my read on it, though.
Oh what a shock that bibi declares that the USA go attack someone. This is about as new worthy as the preacher who used rattle snakes in his church was bitten. Bibi is pure likud. The Likud is not a collect of people who want to live in peace. They had to change their name in the past because of events associated with them and their actions. It is time for Israel to take a lead and send its soldiers into conflict. They will not like us is getting old. I got a little news that no one likes you when you enter their country with the intention of take it as yours.
Subservience is the name of the game. Likud has won its American elections (they never lose) and now they are giving Biden his marching orders : war on Iran or else. Or else what you may ask ? Or else a fate worse than war, i.e. lose the support of the Jewish-Christian Zionist lobbies and suffer the fate of the 'anti-Semite'.
Note Bibi's hand is up Biden's back so he can move his puppet's mouth.
This is to be expected from a terrorist belonging to a terrorist state. He was the guy that told Hilary Clinton to go for crippling sanctions against Iran and sure enough the next day CNN panned to Hilary clinton saying that Iran needs to be sanctioned. Now we will see the US do something or say something. Another propaganda piece or a gulf of tonkin. Who knows?
How low the USG has sunk.
They are now a joke in the eyes of the World. America is devoid of all credibility, decency and honour.
The USG Armed Forces are now a mercenary rogue army to be used by Isreal – the only problem with these mercenaries is that they pay the costs and their employer gains the benefits. Thats no problem if you are Isreali but a big problem if you are an American Taxpayer.
The US is a vassal state . We need another defeat like Viet Nam to come to our senses.
Why the USA should even listen to Netanyahu and his concerns about the growing clout of Iran in the Middle-east is beyond the pale. Let the IAEA monitor the enrichment activities of Iran which is legal under the NPT. If Israel gets twitchy about Turkey and Iran, they should be engaging in local politics a bit more strongly than using the American taxpayer to do their business. If the cost of fronting for Israel were ever to be tallied, the average American would learn how much they have been impoverished for the support of this delinquent child. When will Israel become anything other than a welfare state?
"Netanyahu to Biden: Threaten Iran Some More." Got that Biden? Be a good little boy and follow orders. The real president of the U.S. has spoken.
