Diplomacy won’t stop Iran from going nuclear, Lapid tells Biden in press conference
timesofisrael. ^ | LAZAR BERMAN and JACOB MAGID

Posted on 07/14/2022 10:10:52 AM PDT by BenLurkin

Joe Biden and Prime Minister Yair Lapid expressed a public disagreement over the best way to tackle the threat, with Lapid telling the American leader that “words will not stop them, Mr. President,” and urging him to “put a credible military threat on the table.”

Biden said, “I continue to believe that diplomacy is the best way.”

Minutes before, the two leaders signed a joint strategic declaration, in which the US vowed to use “all elements in its national power” to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.

“The United States stresses that integral to this pledge is the commitment never to allow Iran to acquire a nuclear weapon, and that it is prepared to use all elements of its national power to ensure that outcome,” read the statement, officially known as the Jerusalem US-Israel Strategic Partnership Joint Declaration.

Oops… bet the White House press office didn’t see that one coming. This is a public slap in the face to Biden and his appeasement diplomacy stooges.

Did Nostradamus predict this? That the world will end by nuclear war in 2022/23 because a bunch of idiots allowed a mega moron to steal an election? Does the Rat/RINO uniparty and their supporters realize that if hell on earth does come to pass they are going to be public enemy #1?

The ONLY thing that has stopped Iran from nuclear weapons is God. He used the Israelis and others but we would be in a global nuclear conflict if not for Him. How much longer will He restrain them?

There’s probably somebody somewhere who can find a Nostradamus Quatrain and “interpret” it to say that.

Lapid telling the American leader that “words will not stop them, Mr. President,” and urging him to “put a credible military threat on the table.”

The blunt truth.

Biden said, “I continue to believe that diplomacy is the best way.”

Why would you think that Biden, when the zillions of diplomat dollars you and Obama already sent them was a colossal failure?

The game Biden is trying to play is already over.

The Negev coalition is now in charge of controlling Iran and Biden/USA is irrelevant

Actually, that is not true at all.

Sustained efforts over many years have destroyed the Iranian nuclear program in situ. It is quite reasonable to assume Israel and the Mossad have acted where and when necessary to destroy critical elements. Saudi Arabia and the UAE have most likely lent a hand in some manner.

Well bert, bless your heart. I can only assume you don't believe in God or that God has any concern over the affairs of man.
Peace be unto you.

” the two leaders signed a joint strategic declaration, in which the US vowed to use “all elements in its national power” to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons”

That vow isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on. Biden is Obama’s puppet, and Obama is the #1 person responsible for helping Iran to obtain nuclear weapons.

“The United States stresses that integral to this pledge is the commitment never to allow Iran to acquire a nuclear weapon, and that it is prepared to use all elements of its national power to ensure that outcome,”

How the hell did somebody convince White House Cabinet/Staff AND State Dept to sign off on that statement?

Pigs are flying...

“words will not stop them, Mr. President,” and urging him to “put a credible military threat on the table.”

Israel will have to take the lead here.

Biden likely has received a barrel of cash addressed to "The Big Guy" from the mullahs.
