The US State Department said Monday in a press conference that it disagrees with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's assertion during his UN speech on Monday that "ISIS and Hamas are branches of the same poisonous tree."
"Obviously, weve designated both as terrorist organizations, but ISIL poses a different threat to Western interests and to the United States," said State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki. "And thats just a fact."
Later on in the speech, Netanyahu said that Iran is still a great threat to Israel's existence. He also warned that Iran is not actually willing to give up nuclear weapons but rather just wants to get rid of the sanctions against them.
In response, Psaki said that the US would like Iran to reintegrate into the international community by showing that their nuclear program is peaceful.
"I can assure anyone that an agreement reached would not be based on a charm offensive or how that impacts us, but on the facts and the details," she said. "And were not going to agree to a comprehensive agreement that doesnt meet our standards and meet our threshold."
She brought up other issues, such as Iran's poor human rights record and terror funding as other factors straining the US relationship with Iran.
When asked at the press conference if she was worried about Iran wanting to use militant Shia Islam to "take over the world," Psaki said she was more concerned with getting Iran to agree to curb its nuclear activities in exchange for an easing of economic sanctions.
"I can assure you...that obviously were focused on the here and now, and our effort is focused on these negotiations and the upcoming deadline in November."
“In response, Psaki said that the US would like Iran to reintegrate into the international community by showing that their nuclear program is peaceful. “
Spoken like a true useful idiot appeaser.
Just checking to see if you received 3 Freepmails from me on Saturday evening.
Exactly.
Thing is, Kerry and the foreign enemy combatant in our White House would gladly agree to meet Hamas ALL THE WAY in their demand that the “Great Satan America” be destroyed.
It’s sort of like handing over 5 of the worst Gitmo terrorists in return for a deserter/traitor who can then be used again as an excuse for the Obama regime to turn loose all our enemies...
I am surprised they haven’t been ordered yet to get up and walk out when he talks.
“..islam and peaceful should never be used in the same sentence..”
Exactly what I was intending to post. There is nothing peaceful about Islam unless it’s dead, and then one can only wonder.
Can you elaborate?
Israel: Chewing up and spitting out invaders for millennia. Have Samantha Powers in the vanguard. She should ‘lay something on the line’.
“Obviously, weve designated both as terrorist organizations, but ISIL poses a different threat to Western interests and to the United States,” said State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki. “And thats just a fact.”
—which is why we keep giving Hamas money, so long as they just exploit their own people and attack Jooos! we’re fine with them.
In response, Psaki said that the US would like Iran to reintegrate into the international community by showing that their nuclear program is peaceful.
—and wishful thinking + show = reality
“I can assure anyone that an agreement reached would not be based on a charm offensive or how that impacts us, but on the facts and the details,” she said. “And were not going to agree to a comprehensive agreement that doesnt meet our standards and meet our threshold.”
—which will shift according to our needs to reach an agreement that we can tack the word ‘comprehensive’ onto and then not enforce.
When asked at the press conference if she was worried about Iran wanting to use militant Shia Islam to “take over the world,” Psaki said she was more concerned with getting Iran to agree to curb its nuclear activities in exchange for an easing of economic sanctions.
“I can assure you...that obviously were focused on the here and now, and our effort is focused on these negotiations and the upcoming deadline in November.”
Gee. What’s going on in America this November that the deadline should be then? World, shmerld. Main thing is mid-term elections.
Psaki is Pathetic. I’ll take Pataki, a real leader.
Harpf or whatever the hell her name is. Another Valley Girl Obamite loser. And she was supposedly in the State Department Intelligence Division for years. No wonder we are losing. They are turning out Losers.

The Left/Al queda alliance is running the govt now.
If it could this regime would call Israel an axis of terror and openly fund attempts to liberate it for Islam.
