Adding to the harsh rhetoric coming out of the nation is recent days, Israel’s Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon today announced that the nation was giving the West another 4-8 weeks to attempt diplomacy with Iran, and that after that they would have to impose crippling sanctions on the nation.
In his speech, Ayalon cautioned that Iran might try to inflate international oil prices to “sabotage” the sanctions against its petroleum industry, and urged China, a nation with economic interests in Iran, to seek alternative sources of energy in Saudi Arabia.
He urged international unity in the move against Iran’s civilian nuclear program, adding that “Iran is a big and vulnerable country… calling their bluff is the only way.” Israel has repeatedly threatened military strikes against Iran.
Israel’s threats against Iran are not new, but the growing number of US official visits in recent days are seen as being at least in part based on fear that an Israeli attack could be in the offing.
Though the US has been pressing for the “crippling sanctions” demanded by Israel for quite some time, Chinese officials have repeatedly reiterated their opposition to further sanctions. Russia has also said it will only accept very limited sanctions, and will oppose the “crippling” sanctions sought by Western nations.
Israel has become like a pit-bull on the throat of the US and we are becoming like that too on the throat of the rest of the world – trained to kill.
Unfortunately for Iran,Isreal have lauded the US to attack Iran from the early eighties.
(a clean break)
It seems any country in the middle east that stands up for itself militarily or states the obvious is then demonised as terrorist,evil regimes ect ect, this rubbish was used in the cold war speeches of
Ronald Regan.
When the CIA and Mi6 had there puppet Shah in power anything he wanted including nuclear power was ready for sale.
How long will the USA be led down the path of death and financial ruin for "Lobby groups" interest
not there own?
NO MORE WARS FOR ISRAEL!!!
Lets face it, We are Israel's poodle, Why else would we continue to support Israel when they are Passing on American secrets to others, including to nations perceived as our most dangerous political and economic competitors;
Spying on our government and industry and stealing American technology;
Ignoring demands and pleas by virtually every U.S. president over the past few decades to end diverse illegal actions that have caused incalculable tragedy, destabilized the region and world, demonstrated ruthless cruelty against entire victim populations, and created escalating enmity toward the United States, whose lobby-promulgated assistance (at least $7 million per day) enables its actions.
· Killing American servicemen (USS LIBERTY ATTACK) and citizens; even while receiving more US tax money than any other nation on earth.
Have you ever considered that Israel is a weapon of United Stated?
Can someone please at Antiwar.com explain why America calls }sreal an ally and when 805 of the non arabs are from Russia. In government there is not one American or Brit.
Biden just yesterday stated,USA will support the spoiled child–no matter what happens,even if she starts bombing Iran. Fact is. }sreal is actually a USA funded private run Russian military base.
Putin must be killing himself with laughing.
For years,I been using the term-USi,to my surprize, a new book has come out–United States of Israel :^/
Before Israel became our "only friend in the Middle East – the U.S. had NO 'enemies' in the Middle East. In reality – the U.S. has only one realy enemy in the Middle East – it is ISRAEL!
The creation of Israel was a disaster for the United States.
If Israel attacks Iran the United States should 1) cut off all aid to Israel, 2) Bomb Israel back to the stone age.
The United States does not need friends like Israel.
TOTAL HALLUCINATION. This guy is not too intelligent and his making stuff up while he moves towards the goal of regime change.
"Iran might try to inflate international oil prices to “sabotage” the sanctions against its petroleum industry, and urged China, a nation with economic interests in Iran, to seek alternative sources of energy in Saudi Arabia."
Implying in the same phrase that Iran is powerful enough to significantly influence oil prices, while still assuming that those "crippling sanctions" on the conveyor belt will somehow not significantly influence oil prices so that those sanctions can hold up more than a week, while telling China to push their accumulated dollars toward Saudi Arabia, which is not exactly Jewfriendly.
"He urged international unity in the move against Iran’s civilian nuclear program, adding that “Iran is a big and vulnerable country… calling their bluff is the only way.”
Implying that Iran is just bluffing but sanctions and probably bombings are needed anyway.
Heil to go. I mean, hell to go, Mr Israeli.
Bomb Israel and remove this cancerous tumor from the heart of ME.
