It’s a good thing things have cooled down with North Korea, because I can only deal with one major issue at a time!
It’s just too much. It feels like the freaking WORLD is on fire sometimes.
It had been revealed that Israeli president Benjamin Netanyahu has “dramatic news” about the Iran nuclear deal.
(Thanks for that one, Obama.)
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to make a televised speech this evening to reveal ‘dramatic news’ about Iran, his office said today.
Netanyahu has called a special meeting of his Security Cabinet before he is set to speak on a ‘significant development’ on the Iran nuclear deal.
His speech follows the visit by US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo yesterday, during which the pair discussed Iran and the accord.
Netanyahu will give the statement at Israel’s defense ministry in Tel Aviv at 8pm.
Surely it has something to do with that meeting. Which means it WILL have something to do with us.
The Israeli premier has repeatedly called for the accord between world powers and his country’s main enemy to either be altered or scrapped.
Netanyahu has long criticized the deal and welcomed the Trump administration’s pledge to withdraw next month if it is not improved.
He has welcomed a pledge by U.S. President Trump to decide on whether to reimpose sanctions on Tehran, putting in peril the 2015 nuclear accord, next month.
Pompeo has warned that the United States will withdraw from the agreement “if we can’t fix it”.
The deal was complete and total CRAP to begin with. So, GOOD!
The Israeli premier has repeatedly called for the accord between world powers and his country’s main enemy to either be altered or scrapped.
He alleges the agreement does not prevent Iran from eventually obtaining nuclear weapons and says the lifting of sanctions has increased Tehran’s ability to finance proxy militants in the Middle East.
I’ve never understood it. I mean, how did it benefit us at all? Really?
Kind of like MOST of what Obama did, now that you mention it…
Most world powers however say the nuclear deal is working as intended for now and is the best way to keep Iran from acquiring the bomb.
Oh, really?
So we should just leave little ol’ Iran alone, right?
Israel is also deeply concerned over Iran’s presence in Syria, where it is backing President Bashar al-Assad’s
Israeli officials have not commented on Monday’s overnight airstrike that killed Iranians inside neighboring Syria, but officials have warned Iran against trying to attack Israeli targets.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said this morning that an overnight missile attack in the country’s northern region has killed 26 pro-government fighters, mostly Iranians.
Th Observatory says the attack appears to have been carried out by Israel and targeted an arms depot for surface-to-surface missiles at a base in northern Syria known as Brigade 47.
Tehran has sent thousands of Iran-backed fighters to back President Bashar Assad’s forces in the country’s seven-year civil war.
Earlier on Monday, Syrian TV reported a ‘new aggression,’ with missiles targeting military outposts in northern Syria.
The state-run television reported that the missiles targeted military outposts in the Hama and Aleppo countryside.
Any enemy of Israel is an enemy of ours.
We’ll keep you updated.
