Obama: Terrorist rockets will 'rain on Tel Aviv' if Congress rejects Iran deal

In an attempt to appeal to American Jewish leaders, President Obama warned of the consequences Israel would face should Congress reject the Iran nuclear deal.

"I can assure that Israel will bear the brunt of the asymmetrical response that Iran will have to a military strike on its nuclear facilities," Obama told roughly 20 American Jewish leaders during a two hour meeting at the White House Tuesday night.

"It would be destructive both to the U.S. and to Israel," Obama warned. "An American military action against Iran's nuclear facilities will not result in Iran deciding to have a full-fledged war with the United States. Iran's defense budget is $15 billion. The American defense budget is $600 billion. What Iran would do, and could do, is respond asymmetrically by increasing its support for terrorism."

"You'll see Hezbollah rockets falling on Tel Aviv," Obama added.

Is that a threat, a warning or wishful thinking?

Sounds like political blackmail to me. How dictatorial.

Hey Barry!

If you believe Iran is capable of having nukes in 6 months without your “arrangement”, what is it about the “arrangement” that you claim will stop them?

What you’ve just told us Barry, is that you believe they WILL have nukes in 6 months, but that your “arrangement” has you believing they’ll wait until you’re out of office to use it.

You’re a fool Barry!

Mr. President, emotional blackmail and wishful thinking are not the best way to negotiate the best deal for America.
I understand this fact is contrary to all you have been taught to say you believe.

incredibly evil man
(what he means is that nukes will rain on American cities if he can only manage to keep his Iranian IslamoNazi friends’ bomb factories producing for a few more months)

Threatening Israel to try to force his seditious sell-out of America through Congress ... shows just how crazy and mixed up (and, of course, evil) he really is

delusional

What a blithering idiot! Sense when does Iran need an excuse to rain rockets through its proxy terror groups on Israel? Obama is just making sure the next rockets are larger with nuclear warheads on them. Does he just make this up as he goes? Is the rest of the United States just as stupid to listen and do nothing about this crap!

Terrorists will rain down missiles on Israel if tomorrow is Thursday.

Better conventional explosives than nuclear ones.

Illegal treaty, sent to the UN before the Senate. But just look at the deal.

We give them 100 billion.
They keep all hostages.
They keep all nuclear sites but promise not to build a bomb.
We lift all sanctions.
They can buy weapons worldwide as they please.
They retain the right to deal with us as a hostile.
We have to give a months notice to inspect a site, and no Americans can be on the team.
They don’t even pretend to offer cooperation or peace.
During the deal they scream at and menace negotiators.

In return, we get exactly nothing. Can anyone point to a single tangible thing we got?
Anyone believe Trump would have made THIS deal?

No Congresscritter with a fraction of a gram of self-respect can vote for the Iran deal. The thing of it is is way too many Congresscritters are pro-Obama thus lacking in self-respect.
