After years of Israel insisting that the US only has a matter of months to make a deal with Iran, the inauguration of reformist President Hassan Rohani and offers of serious talks mean a deal could be made in short order. But not if Israel has their way.
Strategic Affairs Minister Yuval Steinitz is now warning the US against agreeing to any talks with the new Iranian president, insisting that the time has “run out” for negotiations, and that military operations are needed, adding that keeping “all options” on the table was no long sufficient.
Steinitz also went on to claim that Iran is six months from building a nuclear bomb, a bizarre claim since Iran actually has dramatically less enriched uranium now than they did a year ago, since much of it has been used to create fuel for the medical isotope reactor. He also blamed the US for that, saying that if the US had set a specific date for the war with Iran the nation would’ve either been attacked or surrendered by now.
That’s the job of Israel’s Strategic Affairs Ministry, which was created in 2006 with the explicit purpose of coordinating Israeli hostility toward Iran. US officials seem reluctant to question Israel at all on the matter, and instead are seeking to reassure Israel that they too oppose the Iranian deal.
May the most brutal blowback strike this terrorist regime. The world has had enough of this outlaw occupier who respects no one, and lives beyond all international norms.
They want it. After the half-hearted "mexican plot" and the Syrian flop, get ready for another false flag attack..
"US officials seem reluctant to question Israel at all on the matter,"
“It is not because the truth is too difficult to see that we make mistakes… we make mistakes because the easiest and most comfortable course for us is to seek insight where it accords with our emotions – especially selfish ones.”

Israel's attitude towards Iran reminds me of a Country song of a few years back. In the song, the singer lists another woman's (whom she obviously is very jealous of) good qualities, then abruptly admits, "I just hate her – I'll think of a reason later!"
Why in Hell are we involved in this b—-'s petty hatreds?
Benjamin Netanyahu once said, "If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no more Israel" is he saying here that peace with the Arabs is non existing, yea that's what he said. Bibi has being saying from the early 80's that Iran is six months away from building a nuclear bomb, but from intelligence report that's not the case, so why the hostility towards Iran?
Running out of time ? If the war lovers think that they are running out of time, they have way too much time on their hands.
Quick! Call out the Marines! Peace might break out!!
Benjamin Netanyahu just wants to bring the united States into a war with Iran on behalf of Israel. He is a war mongerer whilst Obama would rather work for peace.
Israel will not work towards peace
