The big story of the day, in case you missed it, is the deal settled on by the US and Iran over nukes…….the big question that has crossed many minds is……what will Israel do?
“If this deal goes through then the very survival of Israel is at risk”. Famous words of BiBi after hearing of the deal struck by the US and Iran…..but I would not expect any different.
BiBi has been warning of a Iranian nuke bomb since the 1990’s……and yet nothing.
Then there is the American war hawks that have been talking bomb Iran for a decade…..probably longer…. and yet nothing.
I have heard some say that now is the time for Israel to get serious about the destruction of the Iranian capability……to that piece of fecal matter I say……BULLSH*T!
Why? There are reasons and below of just 5 of those reasons…….
If you disagree then speak up or forever hold your peace……
Good article.
It was and it made some excellent points…..
Oddly enough, the very night before the deal was announced, I watched the episode of Homeland where a similar deal was announced. I can’t help but wonder how many people had to be “sacrificed” for this real-life deal?
A Likud lead Israel will attack Iran whenever it feels like it, even if America doesn’t greenlight it. Otherwise, any action will be suggested/greenlighted by the American government (or at least a cabal inside it)
Israel needs Iran to be an enemy…..it is how their government retains control…..
Ok, so this is the semi-related topic where I’m posting the best article on the story I could find. Curiously, or not so curiously, it was far easier finding stories about the DENIAL of this story than it was finding the story itself.

I was surprised how little coverage this got. I know everybody is numb to spying these days. Snoopers can literally get away with anything. But this appears to be a brand new low to me. America is the only friend these fuckers have and, not only do they spy on America’s delegation, they feed the findings to the US government’s opposition. Effectively, Israel and the Republicans are conspiring to sabotage the US government and -for lack of a better term- peace talks.
This is the kind of disrespectful bullshit a superpower does to a 3rd World banana republic. (Oh, the symbolism.) This spying bullshit is just out of control.
The spying thing is nothing new…..Pollard was the biggest back a decade ago….Israel even went so far to attack an American Navy ship back in 1967…..(I will dedicate 8 June to that attack)……over the years I have noticed that there is very few negative Israel stories in the media and when there is it is because there is no other choice…..Israel controls our media and much of the government….
I know it’s nothing new and our general apathy surrounding spying is a major problem in itself. But that still doesn’t make it any less unacceptable. It’s time everyone realize that spying and government secrecy is the complete antithesis of democracy. An actual democracy doesn’t need to hide shit from their citizens (or anyone else for that matter). Democracies are about government’s being responsible to the public. If more democracies did this, the “need” for spying would dry up.
I just love how spies invade everyone’s innermost moments for no reason in particular and assume any attempt at keeping anything private is proof of your guilt. Yet in the same breath, they declare exposing anything about what they do (while on public payroll) is “Treason”. Sorry guys, you got that ass backwards.
The reality is only bad guys spy and nearly always with bad motives. They just try to spin it so that they look like good guys doing it for good motives. In the end, all spies want to do is bugger somebody up the asshole from a safe distance and without ever taking responsibility for their actions. Spying doesn’t make or keep friends. It only makes and keeps enemies.
And this case is a prime example of bad, anti-democratic, motivations perpetrated by two so-called democracies. This was partisan spying far worse than Watergate, but with ZERO outrage. Obama forgets to shake some guy’s hand and “international incident that reflects badly on America”. America’s “democratic friend” spies on it for the purposes of sabotaging…and barely a peep.
Whatever happened to “if you wanna know, just ask”? Nobody respects anybody anymore.
For me it is Americans just do not want to know…..they believe one thing and it will be true no matter what happens…..few really want the truth…especially if it goes against what they choose to believe…..
