Israeli premier Naftali Bennett has made comments warning the P5+1 against granting Iran sanctions relief as part of the Vienna nuclear talks without getting major new restrictions on their nuclear activities.
Israel is not a party to the talks, but Bennett says Israel would be unhappy with “unsatisfactory” restrictions if Iran gains billions of dollars in its assets unfrozen as part of the restoration of the deal.
Iran was meant to have been given substantial sanctions relief in the original 2015 deal, but the US never honored the terms of the agreement, and ultimately backed out entirely. Talks that could see the US returning to the deal would necessarily involve the US finally delivering on those promises.
Though Israel is nominally supportive of US diplomatic efforts with Iran, they opposed the initial nuclear deal. There is a sense that Israel prefers any deal reached to be very tentative, as this leaves room open for the US to threaten war.
Israel is the only nuclear rogue state in the Middle East. End all aid until they sign the NPT and disarm. Honestly, Israel should be blockaded to force this.
Wasn’t the new government of Israel supposed to take a less “in your face” attitude towards the US when Netanyahu left office? When exactly is that going to happen?
It never will….! When it comes to Israel US behaves like battered bitch syndrome…1
Oh Boy – Israel is not happy unless the Iranians go hungry, have no roofs over their heads, or don’t have shingles all over their bodies.
Transfer of activities from Gaza.
What Israel seeks is freedom from any power able to check their constant attacks on all neighbors and their ethnic cleansing of the West Bank, and their intention to expand into the rest of the Golan and back into southern Lebanon up to the water resources (and to Bogart Lebanon’s offshore gas).
They don’t care if Iran suffers or not, so long as they have a risk-free hand to abuse everyone around them indefinitely.
Oh, IsraHell would “be unhappy”. Boo-fucking-hoo.
And since the ZioState is not party to the negotiations, it should just shut the fuck up.
Of course, it does have the vile Amerikkkans to do it’s bidding…
well here is something at least – the price of gasoline per gallon:
israel = $8.37 US
iran = $0.23 US
for decades, the israeLIES have been LYING about Iran getting a nuclear bomb.. great distraction from all the crimes against humanity that the israeLIES.. COMMIT DAILY!
