US hawks give Iran hardliners ammunition against Rouhani

A proposed US law will complicate Rouhani’s job by forcing him to quash criticism at home instead of considering rapprochement abroad
 

Sheldon’s Stooges

Adelson has bought Netanyahu for one single purpose: to place a stooge of his in the White House. It is an aim that any other multi-billionaire cannot even dream of.

IN JAPAN in the good old days, Binyamin Netanyahu would by now have committed hara-kiri.
 In England at that time, the monarch would have would have appointed him governor of the most remote little island in the Pacific Ocean.
 In Israel, his popularity rating is bound to go up.

The activities of US Zionists as spies and shock troops for Israel’s effort to destroy Iran and undermine US diplomacy, pose a long-term threat to all Jews in America.  Sooner or later, Israel’s deep penetration of US power centers and its manipulation of elected American officials, will lead to a prolonged, bloody, destructive war.

Netanyahu: He Came, He Saw, He Conquered …. The Power of Israel over the United States

 No other visiting Prime Minister or President will be received with so much media attention and political fanfare as Netanyahu because none possess the formidable, organized, well-financed and disciplined political apparatus which Israel possess.  This is an apparatus which defends and promotes US wars on behalf of Israel, Israel’s war crimes, land seizures and torture of Palestinians. 

 

Netanyahus nonsensical speech to the US Congress

Raising claims and making the wildest accusations is easy, but on what grounds does Netanyahu want to substantiate his claim or even prove it?
Unlike Israel, Iran…
– has not attacked any country for 200 years
– does not occupy foreign territory
– has no nuclear weapons
