The ICC has agreed to look into Israel’s Gaza incursion last Summer……and the fix is in…..US media has decided to show “Schindler’s List”….a sympathy ploy to gain support……and now the Boehner has invited BiBi to speak to Congress……
As the White House urged calm while it works to nail down a nuclear deal with Iran, John Boehner went a little rogue this morning: The speaker of the House issued an invite to Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu to address Congress next month on what Boehner calls “the threats posed by radical Islam and Iran.” Netanyahu, who is virulently against a deal with Tehran, wasted little time in accepting the invite, reports the Washington Post, and is slated to speak in Washington on Feb. 11. It’s what Politico calls “a move sure to inflame the Obama administration,” and Boehner isn’t being shy about prodding the administration, telling his caucus this morning that President Obama’s “exact message to us was, ‘Hold your fire.’ He expects us to stand idly by and do nothing while he cuts a bad deal with Iran. Two words: Hell no!”
Obama last night said new sanctions on Tehran “will all but guarantee that diplomacy fails, ensuring that Iran starts up its nuclear program again,” a statement that Boehner this morning dismissed as having “papered over” a “serious threat.” He says he did not consult with the White House, but that “I don’t believe I’m poking anyone in the eye.” It will be Netanyahu’s third address before Congress; the last was in 2011.
We will hear about how close Iran is to having a nuke…..well folks that has been said for 30 years damn near…..Iran has been anywhere from 6 months to 5 years before they have a bomb……it is a con job. He will talk about ISIS and of course they will be functioning inside Israel (no proof)……in other words he will be lying his ass off to garner the support of the paid agents in Congress.
Even the Israeli spy agency does not agree with BiBi and his whining…….
Spy agency Mossad had already split with Netanyahu on the sanctions, and has issued a warning to the US Congress that the sanctions bill would kill diplomacy with Iran over its nuclear program.
Having Mossad warn that sanctions are a bad thing could really kill Congressional efforts to get enough votes to override a threatened Obama veto, and Netanyahu’s invite by the House Speaker, over White House objections, seems to be their last hope at getting enough votes to impose the sanctions.
Our worthless elected ones are No more interested in peace in the Middle East than they are in the plight of America’s poor……it is all about the cash…the more they get the louder they speak.
Do not get me wrong……….Israel deserves to exist….but after 60 years they need to do it without hiding behind the skirts of Congress! Maybe then they, Israel, will have to deal with their neighbors as equals and stop being the bully on the block.
Is it just the House or Senate too? Except for presidents only two men have addressed a joint session: Winston Churchill and Hubert Humphrey.
I believe it is the entire Congress and then the Pope has been invited to do the same but not for the same reasons…
