Israel can expect to face international isolation and possible sanctions from countries and companies across the world if Benjamin Netanyahu fails to endorse a framework agreement with the Palestinians, US President Barack Obama cautioned on Sunday ahead of a meeting with the Israeli prime minister.
In an interview with Bloomberg, Obama stressed that time was running out for Israel to achieve a peace deal, and added that he believed Netanyahu had the capacity to rally Israels citizens behind an agreement.
But if Netanyahu does not believe that a peace deal with the Palestinians is the right thing to do for Israel, then he needs to articulate an alternative approach, Obama said.

Israel has been a dead man walking ever since Obama became POTUS. Once Iran gets the nuke, Israel is toast. G-d forbid!

Not quite. Remember that the US is still the Great Satan in Irans twisted view, so we are still the primary target in spite of the POTUS misguided efforts.

God protects Israel...and it is those nations...like the US under Obama who will suffer God’s wrath when Israel is attacked.

If you look at the other side of the coin, Israel is an enemy Obama doesn’t need.
I say Obama because I don’t mean America. If Obama is gone he is defeated but America continues

Israel does not need you to “defend” her, Barry. She’ll do just fine if you just stay out of the way.

Once Iran gets the nuke, Israel is toast. Iran is in the toaster first, as soon as it becomes known to Mossad that they are near able to launch a nuke. Preemptive self-defense is the only sensible response.
