I have touched on the problem of the Middle East that is largely undemocratic, and part of it is strongly anti-democratic. Specifically, it is being radicalized and terrorized by a number of unreconstructed dictatorships whose governmental creed is based on tyranny and intimidation.

The most dangerous of these regimes is Iran, that has wed a cruel despotism to a fanatic militancy. If this regime, or its despotic neighbor Iraq, were to acquire nuclear weapons, this could presage catastrophic consequences, not only for my country, and not only for the Middle East, but for all mankind.

I believe the international community must reinvigorate its efforts to isolate these regimes, and prevent them from acquiring atomic power. The United States and Israel have been at the forefront of this effort, but we can and must do much more. Europe and the countries of Asia must be made to understand that it is folly, nothing short of folly, to pursue short-time material gain while creating a long-term existential danger for all of us.

I hope Bibi (and his family) is surrounded at all times by loyal Jews, the majority of them having been born in Israel.
He should be very careful having outsiders entrusted with such responsibility. Strangely, many American Jews remain fully under Obola’s spell, and stand ready to do or say whatever would add luster to his imaginary throne.

Political folks know that correction in Iran should have been started in 2001 and every day since then.

It really should have been done since 1979.
