A lot of sort of big words

Two former Secretaries of State published an opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal last week that was critical of the Iran nuclear deal. 

John Hayward at Breitbart said, “It was a very weighty piece, filled with serious criticism that … the agreement … would not do much to slow down Iran’s nuclear ambitions.

President Powderpuff’s State Dept Spox, Marie Harf, dismissed the entire thing as “a lot of sort of big words and big thoughts.”

Harf not SNL

A reporter suggested that one of the big thoughts in the piece was that “there are not enough big words and big thoughts in what the Administration is pursuing … in the Middle East right now.”

Harf responded, “Think about either an Iran with a nuclear weapon. Think about how that would create even more instability. Think about having to utilize other options to prevent them from getting a nuclear weapon and the kinds of instability that would lead to.”

Uhhhh … yeah.  That is what we ARE ALL THINKING ABOUT!  

What we wanted from you was some clarification of how the criticisms of two former Secretaries of State are somehow not justified, some small reassurance that the plan Obama is pursuing is going to prevent a nuclear Iran.  Somehow “a lot of sort of big words” doesn’t put one’s mind to rest, you know?  But hey … not to worry!  Cuz Our President Can Shoot Rainbows Out of His Hand!

Shorter Barack Obama: “Of Course Iran Is Going to Vaporize Israel; Why Are You So Judgmental?”

HotAir.com – It’s not exactly a secret that Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu opposes the terms of the framework for the deal with Iran on their nuclear program, but he offered a suggestion to improve it this week: demand that Iran recognize the state of Israel and its right to exist. If the Iranians want to create a peaceful nuclear energy program and refrain from using the economic windfall to sponsor regional terrorism and insurrection, what better way to show it than to open normal diplomatic relations with Jerusalem?

NPR’s Steve Inskeep wondered why the US wouldn’t make that part of their demands, and Obama said, in essence, because the Iranian leadership are anti-Semites with a seething hatred of Israel. And, er, we shouldn’t expect them to comply with something so obviously against their nature. Ahem.

The money quote in the video is at about 12:30. Read more at HotAir.

If Iran cheats …

2015_03 Israel Iran map

April 2, 2015: “A beaming Iranian foreign minister emerged from the meeting rooms in Switzerland to announce that all of the theocracy’s major demands had been met. According to the new provisions released on the nuclear deal, Iran will get to both keep active its centrifuges and receive sanctions relief.”

But not to fear … Barack Hussein assures us, “If Iran cheats, the world will know.”  Of course we will.  The large and radioactive MUSHROOM CLOUD will be a dead give-away.

Gearing up for World War III

  • Iran insists on keeping underground nuclear facilities, advanced centrifuges and a heavy water reactor.
  • Iran insists on developing ICBMs.
  • Iran refuses to come clean with the IAEA on its past weaponization efforts.
  • Iran is accelerating its campaign of terror, subjugation and conquest throughout the region, most recently in Yemen.
  • An Iranian general has brazenly declared, “Israel’s destruction is non-negotiable.”

Obama's foreign policy toon

But Obama wants us to believe that Iran’s nuclear program is only for peaceful purposes.

He also said, “If you like your plan, you can keep your plan.”

The ONLY promise this man has kept is to “fundamentally transform America.”

And he never said CHANGE would be for the better.

Obamacrats working for destruction of Israel

Feb 28, 2015: The following is based on a Kuwaiti newspaper quoting “well-placed” sources

Last year, when Israel discovered that the United States was about to sign a nuclear agreement with Iran behind Israel’s back, Netanyahu and his top people decided to launch airstrikes against Iran’s nuclear program. Israeli fighter jets trained for several weeks and carried out experimental stealth flights in Iran’s airspace.

When an Israeli minister secretly revealed the plan to the Obama administration, Obama threatened to shoot down Israeli jets before they could reach their targets in Iran, forcing Netanyahu to abort the operation. Since then relations between Israel and the Obama administration have gotten even worse than they already were.

Obamacrats and Nuclear Iran

Leftist protesters led by CODE PINK gathered outside AIPAC2015 (American Israel Public Affairs Committee meeting) to raise the Hezbollah flag and chant slogans calling for the destruction of Israel.

Why no room for Palestinians

SO WHAT’S GOING ON TODAY?

There are a number of items to post today, but of course,everybody’s talking about Netanyahu’s speech before Congress. He treated the Kenyan half-breed,Popeye Reid, and the rest of that pack of gargoyles with far more respect than they deserved or they returned. I’ll post some of the pertinent news here then follow in the reply section. There’s no real organization to it,but that never stopped me before.

THIS IS THE ENTIRE SPEECH:

Democrats LASH OUT at Netanyahu, Tell Him to Go Home, Call Him “a Child”
ALL THEIR MONEY WON’T BUY A TEASPOON OF CLASS

Here’s the video of Rep. John Yarmuth from Kentucky losing it:

Minority leader Nancy Pelosi and Black Caucus members left Netanyahu’s speech before it was over.

Netanyahu to US Congress: This is a VERY BAD DEAL – We’d Be Better Off Without It (VIDEO)
Nobel laureate and Holocaust Survivor Elie Wiesel was in attendance today.

From his speech…
Why would anyone make this nuclear deal with Iran?

The foremost sponsor of global terrorism could be weeks away from an entire arsenal of nuclear weapons.

“If Iran wants to be treated like a normal country, let it act like a normal country.”

Iran needs the nuclear deal more than you do.

This is a very bad deal. We’d be better off without it.
The alternative to a bad deal is a much better deal.

Why Obama So Dislikes Netanyahu
There is no question about whether President Obama — along with Secretary of State John Kerry and the editorial pages of many newspapers — has a particular dislike of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. But there is another question: Why? And the answer is due to an important rule of life that too few people are aware of: Those who do not confront evil resent those who do.

Netanyahu Slams White House Deal With Iran: “Even If Israel Has to Stand Alone, Israel Will Stand”

Just as he did in his speech to AIPAC yesterday in Washington D.C., Netanyahu hinted that Israel will take on Iran by itself, if necessary, to prevent the regime’s nuclear program from moving forward, but expressed hope America wouldn’t force the Jewish State to do it alone.

“The days of the Jewish people remaining passive in the face of genocidal enemies, those days are over,” Netanyahu said. “Even if Israel has to stand alone, Israel will stand.”

“I know that Israel does not stand alone, I know that America stands with Israel,” he added.

The threat of a nuclear Iran

On Jan. 22, The Jerusalem Post reported that Iran has deployed a new intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) “whose range far exceeds the distance between Iran and Israel, and between Iran and Europe.”

Iran apologists want us to believe this is not a military ICBM for delivering nuclear warheads, but a peaceful Space Launch Vehicle (SLV) for orbiting satellites. However, this is a distinction without a difference.

Iran's ICBMs are for us

The Obama administration is busting a gut over Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s upcoming speech to the U.S. Congress.

L. Todd Wood at Red Flag says this is because Netanyahu is likely to speak openly about the reality of Islamic terrorism and thus poses a threat to the semi-secrecy of the Obama administration’s agenda to help Iran develop nukes they can stick on top of their ICBMs.

It makes sense. Obama wants American sheeple to continue to swallow his baloney about how Muslim extremist groups are no threat to us and certainly aren’t motivated by Islam, except they do and they are.

Bret Stevens at The Wall Street Journal notes that Democrat support for Israel has been eroding for decades and that relations between our two nations have been in crisis since Obama took office.

To my mind, it all adds up to something I’ve believed since 2008, which is that while Obama is not the Anti-Christ, he was put into the Oval Office to help pave the way for him.

Barack Obama: Making the World a More Dangerous Place

Remember when Mr. Unicorns for World Peace was gonna make everyone love everyone else? Huh.

In the negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program, the Obama administration has given the Iranians 80 percent of what they want. Israeli officials believe the deal will allow Iran to reach nuclear “breakout capacity” within months.

2015_01 BHO blind to Islamic terrorism

Under federal law

8 U.S. Code § 1189 – Designation of foreign terrorist organizations

(a) Designation

(1) In general

The Secretary is authorized to designate an organization as a foreign terrorist organization in accordance with this subsection if the Secretary finds that—

(A) the organization is a foreign organization;

(B) the organization engages in terrorist activity (as defined in section 1182 (a)(3)(B) of this title or terrorism (as defined in section 2656f (d)(2) of title 22), or retains the capability and intent to engage in terrorist activity or terrorism) [1] ; and

(C) the terrorist activity or terrorism of the organization threatens the security of United States nationals or the national security of the United States.

Just days after an Obama administration official went to great pains to explain that the Taliban is not considered a terrorist group, the Taliban took credit for the killing of three American contractors.
