How Turkey shopped Mossad spies to Iran: A story leaked by Washington to caution Netanyahu
Debka file ^ | Oct 17, 2013 | Debka

Posted on 10/20/2013 8:54:06 AM PDT by Innovative

Early last year, the Erdogan government blew the cover of up to 10 Israel agents in Iran who had been meeting inside Turkey with their Mossad case officers. This story was published in The Washington Post, by David Ignatius, who has excellent connections in the US capital, Thursday, Oct. 17 – the day after a two-day conference in Geneva between six world powers with Iran on its nuclear program. A chorus of Western powers led by the US hailed the event as “substantive” and “forward-looking.”

But on the quiet, the WP story was directed against Israel’s Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu as a caution to him to drop his “lone voice” posture against trusting Iran to abandon its nuclear weapon aspirations. Instead, he must look forward and start getting used to the “new Middle East" and role Barack Obama has assigned for Iran. If he persists in his defiant attitude, Israeli intelligence may face more debacles like the Turkish betrayal.

With friends like Obama, Israel doesn't need enemies...

Obama’s potential release of $12bn of frozen Iranian assets would be followed by $35 billion from Europe

http://www.debka.com/article/23370/Obama’s-potential-release-of-12bn-of-frozen-Iranian-assets-would-be-followed-by-35-billion-from-Europe

Tehran stands to gain access to nearly $50 billion if the Obama administration decides to free up $12 billion of frozen Iranian assets in the US, inevitably followed by Europe’s release of another $35 billion. The White House was reported Friday, Oct. 18 to be weighing a proposal to offer Iran access to these funds “in installments” against “steps to cut down on its nuclear program.”
debkafile’s intelligence sources: This plan offers Barack Obama a way to ease sanctions on Iran, while avoiding political and diplomatic fallout in Congress and from Jerusalem that would result from an attempt to get the sanctions legislation repealed or amended.

US lawmakers and Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu continue to call for harsher measures against Iran, after the Geneva conference last week failed to achieve any breakthrough in the controversy on Iran’s nuclear program.

Have nuclear talks been more successful for Iran than the West?

http://www.cnn.com/2013/10/17/opinion/opinion-rafizadeh-iran-negotiations/

‘Other recent diplomatic progress can be seen at the bilateral meetings between the U.S. and Iranian delegations — meetings that can be regarded as an extension of a potential U.S.-Iran rapprochement, Rouhani’s charm offensive, and the exchange of letters and pleasantries between Rouhani and Barack Obama.

Despite being in the early stages, the talks seem to have been more of a success for Iran than the U.S. and its Western allies. Speaking in English and using PowerPoint to outline his proposal, the U.S.-educated foreign minister, Javad Zarif, created the first (and necessary) positive impression that would set the stage for future nuclear talks and the possible easing of sanctions that are crippling Iran’s economy. The Iranian lauded “serious” talks that had been conducted in a “highly positive atmosphere.””

The better your information the more widely the Israelis must advertise it with its provenance. The Israelis had turned a member of Kaddafi’s own family. So, to ensure President Carter took the information seriously they told him it was from Kaddafi’s brother in law. So, at a Washington dinner party Carter told the table that he knew thus-and-such because Kaddafi’s brother in law was an Israeli agent. The brother in law was executed the next day.

As an agent you can’t trust Washington or anybody who is an elected official because they have their own agendas. Keeping you alive isn’t even on their radar screen.

Take heart! Every country in the world can turn against Israel, but they will still win. They are still God’s chosen people, and with God on your side it doesn’t matter how many enemies you have. The battle of the world versus Israel comes closer with each passing day, and it will happen within the lifetime of the generation which was alive when Israel was reborn as a nation (1948). That is God’s promised, and you can bet your life on it! Read the back of the book. (The Bible.) We win!!

Obama is going to cause the death of hundreds of thousands of people before he is finished.

Thanks Innovative.
This story was published in The Washington Post, by David Ignatius, who has excellent connections in the US capital, Thursday, Oct. 17 -- the day after a two-day conference in Geneva between six world powers with Iran on its nuclear program... was directed against Israel’s Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu as a caution to him to drop his "lone voice" posture against trusting Iran to abandon its nuclear weapon aspirations. Instead, he must look forward and start getting used to the "new Middle East" and role Barack Obama has assigned for Iran. If he persists in his defiant attitude, Israeli intelligence may face more debacles like the Turkish betrayal.
That leaves just one option. And I hope they make a video, because I want to watch it over and over.

Not a surprise considering who's in the White House...
