Nope, not something on the Game Show Network…….but rather the deal with the Iranians over the nuke issue…….just in case there was any confusion…….
There is lots of condemnation of the deal on Right wing whack job parties and even the start of ads on the tube against the deal….all financed by Israel in one way or the other……
But with all the hoopla on TV by pundits on both sides the question remain,……………….do Americans favor or not this deal?
According to a recent poll….Jews in the US……..
By a wide margin, American Jews support the recently concluded agreement with Iran to restrict its nuclear program, and a clear majority of Jews wants Congress to approve the deal. In fact, as compared with Americans generally, Jews are more supportive of the “Iran deal,” in large part because Jews are more liberal and more Democratic in their identities. It turns out that liberals (Jewish or not) support the deal far more than conservatives (Jewish or not), just as most Democrats are in favor, while most Republicans are opposed.
These results emerge from the new LA Jewish Journal Survey conducted under my direction by Social Science Research Solutions (SSRS), between July 16-20, a few days after the agreement had been announced. SSRS interviewed 501 Jews for the Jewish survey, and for the national survey, 522 respondents by phone (almost a third of which were cellphones). The margin of error is 6 percent for the Jewish survey and 5.2 percent for the national survey (consisting of 505 non-Jews and 17 Jews).
Okay American Jews support the deal…..but what about the rest of the country?
According to a poll conducted bt ABC News…….
A new national ABC News/Washington Post poll also finds sharply politicized views of U.S.-Israel relations, which have been strained by the two allies’ dispute over the advisability of an agreement with Iran.
In a result that supports the Obama administration’s position in the face of Republican and Israeli criticisms alike, Americans by 59-31 percent back a plan to lift major economic sanctions against Iran in exchange for restrictions making it harder for it to produce nuclear weapons.
We now see that the Iranian deal is popular with the American people…..the only opposition is from people OWNED by the Israel lobby……but let us say that somehow these dorks get their way and the deal is crushed…..what will be the result?
Taking his efforts to sell the Iran deal on the road, Secretary of State John Kerry spoke at several conferences and media interviews today on the matter, starting off with comments before the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) during which he had some serious warnings for Israel.
During the CFR talks, Kerry cautioned that considering intense Israeli lobbying efforts against the pact, if the US Congress does end up killing the deal the international community is likely to blame Israel more than it blames the US for blocking it.
If that occurred would that be the end of the Israeli control of this country? Would this then be the water to put out the Israeli flame?
