Netanyahu: 'This Is a Bad Deal--a Very, Very Bad Deal'
Weekly Standard ^ | November 8, 2013 | Daniel Halper

Posted on 11/08/2013 5:24:14 AM PST by Cincinatus' Wife

A very unusual statement from the Israel prime minister on the eve of a possible nuclear detail between the U.S. and Iran:

"I met Secretary Kerry right before he leaves to Geneva," said Netanyhau. "I reminded him that he said that no deal is better than a bad deal. That the deal that is being discussed in Geneva right now is a bad deal. It’s a very bad deal. Iran is not required to take apart even one centrifuge. But the international community is relieving sanctions on Iran for the first time after many years. Iran gets everything that it wanted at this stage and it pays nothing. And this is when Iran is under severe pressure. I urge Secretary Kerry not to rush to sign, to wait, to reconsider, to get a good deal. But this is a bad deal--a very, very bad deal. It’s the deal of a century for Iran; it’s a very dangerous and bad deal for peace and the international community."

Robert Zarate of the Foreign Policy Initiative explains how the proposed deal is full of concessions toward Iran:

The potential package of Iranian concessions could reportedly include:

(1)Partially Increased Nuclear Transparency: somewhat increased inspection and monitoring of Iranian nuclear material, equipment, and facilities by the International Atomic Energy Agency(IAEA),but less than enhanced measures authorized by the so-called “Additional Protocol” agreement that Iran has refused so far to ratify.

(2)Freeze on Medium Enriched Uranium:a freeze on Iran’s production of uranium enriched to 20-percent (sometimes called “medium enriched uranium” or MEU), and conversion of Iran’s stockpile of 20-percent MEU into harder-to-enrich reactor fuel plates.

(3)Numerical Limits on Centrifuges to Enrich Uranium: limits on the number of Iran’s actively-enriching first-generation centrifuges, and a delay on the use of Iran’s installed and more advanced second-generation centrifuges.

(4)Delayed Start-Up of the Plutonium-Producing Heavy Water Reactor: deferral...

The only concession ought to be dropping flyers which read in Arabic “DUCK!”

....about 30 seconds before the MOPs and MOABs are released.

Who are you going to trust, Benjamin Netanyahu, leading a nation facing an existential threat from a foe that absolutely hates him and his countrymen, or John ‘French’ Kerry?

Well, Jewish voters came out and voted and contributed for Obama overwhelmingly. They still love him. I guess most of them are okay with this.

They are shocked, shocked.

No, IMHO, there are two kinds of Jewish Democrat voters. There are the usual useful idiots who have no concept of history (all groups have those) and for whom socialism is more important than the lessons of the holocaust.

And there are the deluded low info ones, who I saw on the tube everyday before the 2008 election saying idiotic things like Obama is not for gay marriage or against the family or Israel or whatever - naïve fools who believed the lies of the MSM and didn’t vet the man on their own.

The ones who would be amazed to hear that he wants $7 a gallon gas and hates the energy industry and would destroy the military all to put in gay lovers. But WE all knew, because we watched him and vetted him and listened to what he tried to say only in secret to little groups.

Today in Broward and Manhattan there are little Jewish groups who are perturbed and saying, “But he PROMISED us...” They believed Hitler too, when he first wanted power. And then came the War.

It won't surprise me to find out that after the Israeli's drop nukes on Iran, that the Saudi's allowed them air passage over their country {and both countries kept the USA in the dark}.

Neither the Saudi's nor the Israeli's trust obama or kerry or any of their minions.
