A senior U.S. official dismissed Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahus concerns over the Iran deal on Tuesday, saying nobody pays attention to the Prime Minister anyway, Israeli Channel 2 news reported.
Nobody takes any of Netanyahus proclamations seriously, the official said, nobody listens to him.
During an interview with MSNBC, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry also responded to Netanyahus criticism of the nuclear deal.
Asked in the interview what he thought about about Prime Minister Netanyahu calling the deal a historic mistake, Kerry responded, Well, he said the same thing about the interim agreement, and he was wrong.
Kerry called the prime ministers comments way over the top.
He doesnt even know what the concessions are that we have not engaged in, he said, adding, because we havent made concessions.
Despite Kerrys harsh words for the Israeli prime minister, the Obama administration has started efforts to allay Israeli fears: Defense Secretary Ashton Carter will visit Israel next week to discuss the Iran deal and strengthening security ties.
Israel hasn’t been able to depend on the United States for at least 6 years. Damn with asking permission, defend yourself and ask for American volunteers. I know of at least 40,000 that will soon be available and they are already trained.
“No one Takes Netanyahu Seriously”
I have a feeling this is going to change...
I look forward to this Obama circus ending. I hope we can avoid a world war created by obozo.
They left Israel no choice.
That was the big strategic blunder.
Hanoi John Kerry has sided against the US every opportunity possible.
The State Department has it all wrong.... maybe the Obama administration takes John Kerry seriously, but no one else does, especially the Iranians.
I don't think I'll be able to last another 16 months it takes to get rid of the maoist bastards.
An even if I do, whats to look forward to - Jeb? Hillary? Someone give me an encouraging word.
The unimaginable evil that pulses through the minds of these traitors. And the stupidity that lies lazy in the minds of the people that vote Democrat or support them by not voting. I wish we didn’t have to tolerate either.
And US Jews will continue to mindlessly vote Democrat.
Jane’s says Israel has 200 nuke warheads and bombs. So delivering via Jets is out of range without refueling and Iran has SS300 to shoot the planes down. I hope Israel has invested in ICBM’s for these nukes and for conventional warheads to take out the SS300 and oil wells. If not time for BB to start testing everything.
Also, basing missiles in the STANS , Greece, and Cyprus would be a good Idea.
Israelis already have bomb shelters, time to make them Nuke proof.
An agreement has been reached between the U.S. and Iran with regard to Iran’s nuclear program. In an effort to reconcile America’s determination for Iran not to be able to produce nuclear weapons with Iran’s determination not to have their national sovereignty options limited, John Kerry and the Obama administration have worked out an agreement in which we have agreed to bomb ourselves.

What kind of “senior U.S. official” says something like that about an ally?
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
More arrogance from the
regime. Many Americans take him seriously and, frankly, would prefer to have him as our leader.
What if an Iranian nuke is closer than is thought and Obama knows that.
So, Obama gets his deal. Which will be lauded as an Obama win.
If Obama knows full well Israel will strike...well don’t have to worry about the failures of the deal. “Those israeli’s didn’t give it a chance!” Obama win.
After the Israeli strike, Obama roundly condemns Israel. Another win for him.
How does Obama lose. Assuming the Iranian would have a nuke soon making the entire negotiation at this late date a farse. Do you think Obama wanted to be at the table when the Iran tested a nuke.
Right. We're supposed to believe that after Netanyahu's appearance before a joint session of Congress?

That arrogant little sh!t is daring Israel- esp PM Netanyahu, even more than he is the American people (also Russia). I hope he gets his karma, but (as karma is) not from the sources he’s goading. He richly deserves it.
