Economics minister and Jewish Home leader says Israel cannot ‘sit idly by’ while world allows Iran to be 6 weeks from the bomb

Economics and Trade Minister Naftali Bennett (Jewish Home) said Saturday that a “bad deal” with Iran on curbing its nuclear program would “increase the need for Israeli [military] action.”

“If there will be a deal which would allow Iran to have the ability to ‘break out’ and build a bomb within six weeks, we cannot sit idly by in this situation and we will examine all the options,” Bennett told Channel 2 Saturday evening.

Since November 6th, Israel has campaigned hard against the "bad deal" on the table in Geneva. Just in the last few days several Israeli cabinet officials have issued warnings about the deal being considered. Here are a couple more from yesterday:

Unless we hear the Israelis suddenly announce approval of the Geneva deal, we should consider Israeli military action to be imminent.

This is designed to be a distraction from the obamacare debacle.
Not saying we at FR cannot chew gum and walk at the same time.

But, Sunday morning shows will divert their attention to Iran/Israel.

This is now a real diplomatic problem for Israel. The Israelis are quite correct when they complain that not only does this agreement give Iran $4.5 billion and loopholes in the sanctions, it gives them some protection of an “international agreement” Even though the centrifuges will not stop spinning for a minute, if Israel now attacks, the world will be mostly on Iran’s side. Obama to Netanyahu...hahahahaha.

Right you are. The world's major powers have all given a thumbs-up to this deal. As you noted, Obama has now put Israel in a box. It's trouble if Israel now moves against Iran, and trouble if Israel now doesn't move against Iran.

At this point does Israel have the power? Iran has done a pretty good job at dispersing it’s operation. Will Russia allow Iran to mess with Israel? What are China’s interests in preventing or entertaining an Israeli strike? What about the Saud’s? They would love to see Iran hit; will they help or try and contract out to other countries par usual for them? Lots and lots of un-answered questions. Bottom line, the U.S. is acting weak under this administration. Nature (along with politics) hates a vacuum. Someone is going to take point.

Nuclear Middle East in the making. Israel and Saudi mostly likely steaming about the developments.

History repeats itself remember Madeline Halfbright dealing with N. Korea. Look how that turned out.

: “I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land” (Joel 3:2)

Well since odumbass has now officially abandoned Israel. i believe it’s safe to say that Joel’s prophecy of “all nations” is now possible.

Hannukah is Nov 27 to Dec 5.

“The last day of Hanukkah is known as Zot Hanukkah”

Will Israel will zot the base?

“What happen? Somebody set us up the bomb. We get signal. What! Main screen turn on. It’s you!! How are you gentlemen. All your base are belong to us!”

"Ever since its advent, Islam has been engaged in a continuous struggle against the repeated endeavours to obliterate the truth for which it stands. This struggle will continue until the world comes to an end, since the struggle between truth and falsehood and between virtue and sin is eternal and began with the creation of man and will continue as long as mankind inhabits the earth."
~Mahmood Hamidy Zakzouk
