I wonder how Bibi and his cabinet reacted when they saw that comment from this afternoon’s briefing!
After treating Bibi like crap for 6 years, and relentless attacks over the Congress speech and the Israeli election and the Iran deal, this comment today is the straw that breaks the camel’s back for me!
I don’t know if you are religious or not, Dave, but the Bible has some very harsh words about nations who go against the people of Israel. From genesis all the way through to the prophets, there are very dire warnings.
I fear for my country.
This is the full question and answer from State’s website:
Question: One of the things that the prime minister said was that any final deal that’s reached in June, if that happens, needs to demand that Iran recognize Israel’s right to exist. Is that an appropriate thing to include in a deal of this sort, in the U.S.’s view?
MS. HARF: Well, this is an agreement that is only about the nuclear issue. We have purposefully kept that separate from every other issue. That issue is complicated enough to deal with on its own. No, this is an agreement that doesn’t deal with any other issues, nor should it, and that’s what we’re focused on.

Bibi knows what he has to do. Sooner or later.
