Though most of the momentum for a vote died weeks ago, hawks among the Senate GOP are trying to force a vote on Iran sanctions by slipping the text of their proposed sanctions into an unrelated bill.
Sen. Mitch McConnell (R – KY) insisted that imposing sanctions on Iran was a “very time sensitive matter.” Majority Leader Harry Reid (D – NV) had said he was open to “relevant amendments” to the veterans benefits bill, though he didn’t explicitly rule out a vote on the sanctions.
The sanctions would deliberately violate the interim nuclear deal with Iran, killing the interim deal as well as ongoing negotiations on a permanent settlement. The bill has been regularly endorsed by Israeli Lobby factions, though as momentum slowed AIPAC said they wanted the vote to wait until the interim deal expires.
President Obama has promised to veto the sanctions, and Senate hawks from both parties have suggested they would try to override the veto. Though it is unclear how close a veto override vote is right now, even the possibility could seriously harm negotiations, since the US can’t be counted on to keep any promises it makes so long as hawks are determined to cancel the deal.
The Iranians needs to be very careful when it cones to trusting USG in general, so as rest of the world governments. The report on the Iranian nuclear is from M e k terrorists organization-cult (Mojahedin e Khalgh) and is a discredited one by almost every intelligent agencies in this world, according to German their report is no trust worthy, nor the M e K worthy of taken serious as they can produce whatever for who and from whatever.
State department uses this organization from time to time and MeK have established their lobbyist in Washington for sometimes now, AIPAC also uses MeK so as Saudis and others who are at war with Iran, those whom do whatever to sideline the US-EU deal with Iran, so, this is one of those time where MeK shows up with another falsified document.., again.
The Mek represents Iranian people's resistance against the tyrannical mullahs ruling Iran. The Iranian people hate this regime and are looking for ways of bringing an end to this tyranny and MEK is the most efficient tool to do this. They are democratic and secular and enjoy a vast support base both in Iran and outside.
When you say Iranian people, do you mean all 78-85million of them or just MeK members-sympathizer as Iranian people, if you could come up with more then 150 thousands of MeK members and sympathizer both in Iran and in other countries then I will change my political views and start cooperating with MeK.
Secondly: MeK is efficient alright in lying and falsifying documents. Thirdly: MeK always been looking for ways to get into power, that is to say for last 35 years if not more, and still trying.
Fourthly: Syrian government is secular and to a point democratic, look what MeK masters (USG-Israel-Saudis-EU) are doing in Syria especially the Saudis barbarians. Fifthly: MeK leaders, Rajavi and the rest of his gang left his brothers and sisters to die in Iran while running to hid in Iraq, many of whom the leaders told the regime where about, later they were captured and ordered to be hanged by the Iranian notorious, an Islamic fascist prosecutor by the name Khalkhali, and some died fighting. It was not an incident for so many true MeK to be found in their hiding, being prosecuted and hanged by the regime 35 years ago.
Wasn't the Tea Party supposed to be about a return to fiscal sanity? They have now become just another arm of the GOP war party. They don't want to cut the war (er, defense) budget, but that's where the most discretionary cuts can be made These hypocrites, led by Ted Cruz, were against the Syrian strike because Obama was for it, and now they are in favor of this war vote because Obama wants negotiations. They are just fake conservatives and opportunists without a soul. Let's hope that Rand Paul and Jeff Flake (the only two GOP Senators who have refused to sign on) have the guts to stick with their principles.
Time for Rand Paul to bend over for his Israeli masters
How long is it that you been bending over for both Israelis and vulture capitalism without feeling anything?
