Kerry Promises Israel, Saudis Money In Wake of Iran Nuclear Deal
freebeacon.com ^ | 9/2/15 | Adam Kredo

Posted on 09/02/2015 1:12:54 PM PDT by ColdOne

Kerry admits that, despite the deal, Iran will continue to back terrorist groups across the globe and promises to boost military support and funding to Israel and Gulf states such as Saudi Arabia, according to a copy of the letter obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.

The letter comes in response to concerns among lawmakers, Israel, and other Gulf region allies that the nuclear accord will boost the Islamic Republic’s support for terrorism, while leaving traditional U.S. allies on the defense.

“Important questions have been raised concerning the need to increase security assistance to our allies and partners in the region and to enhance our efforts to counter Iran’s destabilizing activities in the region,” Kerry writes. “We share the concern expressed by many in Congress regarding Iran’s continued support for terrorist and proxy groups throughout the region, its propping up of the Assad regime in Syria, its efforts to undermine the stability of its regional neighbors, and the threat it poses to Israel.”

The Obama administration, Kerry claims, is under “no illusion that this behavior will change following implementation of the JCPOA,” or Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.

You’d be better off with Cruz handling Iran and all of the middle east.

Why? Cruz voted for Corker deal which made this possible.

We’ve ceded America to the Katzenjammer Kids. And they’re going to get us all killed.

Money? What money? The U.S. is $18 trillion in debt, so where will the money come from?

Kerry admits that, despite the deal, Iran will continue to back terrorist groups across the globe...

DESPITE the deal? DESPITE the deal? Are you f'ing KIDDING me? Do you, Secretary Horseface, really mean that you don't think that Iran getting $100 billion - $150 billion extra in cash over the next decade would, BY ITSELF, enable Iran to back terrorist groups?

Here's the real question, Mr. Heinz: Are you REALLY that f'ing STOOOOPID, or do you think that WE are?

Money won’t help any nation after it is nuked by Iran so the offer is stupid.

Um, yeah, well, uh, look who was quoted.

How much money does it cost to rehabilitate a nuclear wasteland?

I think that we'll find out when Israeli planes that take off and land in Saudi Arabia, nuke Iran. At least I hope so.

“We share the concern expressed by many..."

This is Washington-speak for "We don't give a flying phuck what you think."

Obama better pardon this man once he leaves office, as he needs to be tried for treason and hung for his 50 years of treasonous behavior.

Do yourself (and anyone that survives) one better. Start taking names, lots of them. Who worked with this asshole, who gained by this "deal", etc..etc.. When we or Israel (probably both) get emp'd or nuked, no trial, no words; just a hanging for those involved. Don't fear the "law", it won't be around at that point; just remember these people so they can never come back from their lofty protective perches.

[I’m sorry folks. AT this point, I really don’t care if Trump is the right guy on every damn conservative issue, fact is we need someone NOW running this country. The entire body of politicians in D.C. are stupid. I’m voting for Trump and will do what I can to help him get elected.]

^This + 1. Our political system is lost. How much more can Trump screw it up?

I feel like I am in the twilight zone. They just can’t possibly be this stupid and treacherous and dangerous. But they are.
