The pending Iran deal and the Biden administration’s “weakness” — 19 Comments

  1. The mystery is why Obama chose to ally with Iran, which hates us and is not interested in any alliance with us. There was a theory that Valerie Jarret was behind this or that Obama was still a Muslim. The fact that Obama left Netanyahu alone in the White House waiting while he and the family ate dinner might be a clue. Maybe Obama just hates Jews. Axelrod is Jewish and had his bar mitzvah but, like many Jews, maybe he is a total atheist now. It’s obvious that Obama is running this regime so what Obama wants he gets.

  2. Mike K:

    I’ve pondered why Obama wanted to do this. I don’t think he hates Jews, but I do think he has the typical leftist sympathies with the Palestinians. I think another thing operating was hubris. He wanted to be the one to “make peace” with Iran. It was a driving motive, and I think at a certain level he believed his own hype that this would work in terms of discouraging Iran from getting nuclear weapons. In other words, his narcissism and his dislike of Israel and especially of Netanyahu (whom he treated with contempt), and his leftist politics re Palestine, drove him. Disarmament was a long concern for Obama and he always was naive about it. See this post of mine that goes into this in some depth.

  3. A story popped up on Facebook this morning that Israel has been making incursions into Iranian airspace with F-35’s in training.
    The fighters have Israeli added electronics which they usually do to US fighters. The F-35 has been modified to accept a 1,000 lb bomb internally. (They didn’t say that’s a US modification or Israeli.

    If so, Israel is serious to take out Iranian nuclear facility at some point. I thought Iran had hardened their facilities some years ago, so It’s doubtful a 1,000 lb bomb would have much effect, so this may just be propaganda.

    Also linked to a story yesterday that Europe is onboard with the Iranian deal since they would then receive Russian oil shipped through Iran and wouldn’t be violating sanctions against Russia.

  4. Of course Bidet’s puppet masters intend for Iran to gain nuclear weapons capability. Their fondest hope is that Iran and Israel wipe each other off the map. Simultaneously removing two ‘irritants’ would be for the Left, a classic geopolitical “win-win”.

    Too cynical? Remember that I’m speculating about the Biden’s fanatical leftist puppet master’s true motivations vis-à-vis Iran and Israel.

    There’s no depth too low, nothing too depraved for the Left to support… if it moves forward their agenda. As for the fanatical, the end always justifies the means.

    60+ million dead babies and a plan to reduce humanity from 8 Billion to 500 Million should remove all doubt as to their willingness to “do what it takes”.

    “What shall we do with all these useless people?”

  5. And yet Biden’s fighter bombers in Syria are repeatedly bombing Iran’s proxy forces there — I don’t get this!

  6. If the USA reaches some sort of nuclear agreement with Iran it will force Israel, sooner or later, to launch a devastating military strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities.

    This strike may result in a major, declared war between Israel and Iran and it’s a safe bet that the Arab nations will, one way or the other, support Israel.
    The Arabs have no illusions as to which nations in their backyard present the greatest threat to them.
    Iran will be fully aware of this and who knows how it will respond to this re: Israel’s Arab nation supporters.

    Israel, so far, has been using sabotage, computer hacks of sorts, targeted assassinations, etc., to prevent Iran from obtaining nukes. Israel has already been doing this with apparent good success.
    Each Israeli success will make any subsequent success that much more difficult as Iran learns how to prevent these “minor’ attacks .

    Eventually, Israel will be forced to take major military action; e.g. aircraft bombing raids, rapid, targeted in/out commando raids on important Iranian weapons facilities, etc. Once this occurs, who knows how Iran will respond.

    Any US / Iran agreement will be the Mideast version of the UK / French / German agreement giving Hitler the Sudetenland in 1938, but in it’s modern version, it’s not territory being “donated,” but nuclear weapon’s capabilities and methods of delivering these weapons.

    Those in our govt. actively supporting this Iran deal are laying the groundwork for a major nuclear conflagration in the Mideast and who knows which nations inside / outside of the ME will be dragged into it.

    But let me guess; the USA for one.

    The stupidity and yes, criminal negligence of those in the US govt promoting this Iran deal is absolutely incredible.

    This will not end well.

  7. @ TJ > “And yet Biden’s fighter bombers in Syria are repeatedly bombing Iran’s proxy forces there — I don’t get this!”

    They left the war on auto-pilot?

    Seriously, when I saw LI’s story about that today, I wondered the same thing.
    We’re simultaneously bombing them because they attack us, and negotiating a dealt to give them more money to — attack us and Israel.

    However, that’s not the only policy area where the Democrats and the WH are inconsistent.
    It does make one wonder just how many power factions there are handling different areas, and possibly contending over control.

    This will not end well —

    Here’s the JNS story:
    https://www.jns.org/us-says-it-bombed-syria-to-send-message-to-iran/

    The Pentagon said on Wednesday that U.S. military bombings in eastern Syria earlier this week should be seen as a message to Iran and Tehran-backed militias that threatened American forces earlier this month and several times in the past year.

    Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Colin Kahl said that the overnight U.S. airstrikes on facilities used by militias backed by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps demonstrated that “the United States will not hesitate to defend itself against Iranian and Iran-backed aggression when it occurs,” reported the AP.

    Two U.S. military bases in northeastern Syria, near extensive oil and gas deposits, were attacked with rocket fire hours after the U.S. strikes. Two American service members were evaluated for minor injuries, while another was treated and sent to work.

    “Today’s strikes were necessary to protect and defend U.S. personnel,” Central Command spokesman Col. Joe Buccino said in a statement.

  8. AND the US is using a Russian to negotiate with Iran while we are arming Ukraine to fight — the Russians.

    Does anyone else feel like we are living in a Kafka plotline written out by Dostoevsky?
    We left Orwell behind a long time ago.

  9. Got that right, AF.
    Making it APPEAR as though “Biden” is countering Putin.
    Making it APPEAR as though “Biden” is countering the Mullahs.
    Making it APPEAR as though “Biden” is fighting inflation.
    Making it APPEAR as though “Biden” is keeping that Southern Border under control (though in this case it’s more like empty words—the optics speak for themselves…).
    Making it APPEAR that CRT is NOT being taught in the schools (see previous point).
    Making it APPEAR that “Biden” is supporting the US energy industry (see previous point.).
    Making it APPEAR that “Biden” is supporting the police and LE (see previous point).
    Making it APPEAR that “Biden” is a friend of Israel. (Methinks those clever Israelis are going to have to find another, bigger, shinier medal to present him with—he seems to have “forgotten” the one they gave him one just two months ago…)
    Making it appear that “Biden” is standing up to China (and supporting Taiwan).
    Making it APPEAR that “Biden” supports minorities and the working class.
    Making it APPEAR that “Biden” supports the rule of law.
    Making it APPEAR that “Biden” is a patriot’s patriot!
    Making it APPEAR that Joe Biden is in charge…
    Etc.

    P.S. One might well assume that the current Israeli Leftist propaganda machine will—with American assistance—pin this “NEW AND IMPROVED IRAN DEAL” on…Bibi…

  10. Oops… Forgot about all that “Clarity” and “Honesty”, “Concern” and “Protection”, “Forthrightness” and “Assistance” WRT COVID-19…
    “Making it appear that….”

  11. “This will tell you why…”

    That “golden oldie” is indeed cute in its own way… and true…in its own way…
    But….
    …the reason why Obama loathed Netanyahu is because the latter dared speak the TRUTH —and IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN…IN OBAMA’S BACK YARD…about America’s “greatest president since…sliced bread”:

    That Obama is simply a LIAR.
    (Once again, similarities abound with the evil, orange-haired monster…. I’ve even heard the gloriously logical opinion expressed that Trump’s support for Israel would ultimately rebound against Israel once Trump was out of office…which is why, no doubt, it makes total sense to blame Trump for JCPOA, Round 1…(!))

  12. …as Obama speaks from behind the arras….

    “…WH Press Secretary Refuses To Answer Question “What Is Semi-Fascism?””—
    https://www.zerohedge.com/political/watch-wh-press-secretary-refuses-answer-question-what-semi-fascism
    Key grafs:
    ‘…Earlier in the day, a yelling Biden blurted “The MAGA Republicans don’t just threaten our personal rights and economic security,” and further declared that “MAGA Republicans” are “a threat to our very democracy. They refuse to accept the will of the people. They embrace — embrace — political violence. They don’t believe in democracy.”
    ‘ “It’s not hyperbole,” he continued, adding “America is at a genuine inflection point. It occurs every six or seven generations in world history,” and further proclaiming “What we’re seeing now is either the beginning or the death knell of an extreme MAGA philosophy… It’s not just Trump, it’s the entire philosophy that underpins the — I’m going to say something — it’s like semi-fascism.”
    ‘ “I respect conservative Republicans,” Biden said, adding “I don’t respect these MAGA Republicans.”…’

    The glove has been thrown.
    (For the umpteenth time….)

  15. Talk about “weakness.”

    Take a look at this video of “Dr.” Jill Biden pulling ol’ Joe backwards when he is apparently talking to the press.

    Reminds me of what I’ve seen in venues where there are a lot of very old people, and sometimes their attendants physically take a hold of them and reorient them to the right direction, so they can slowly shuffle to the correct entrance or door.

    In particular, note “Dr.” Jill’s body language after she does this, turns around, and walks away. It strikes me that she looks like she is weary of this, or perhaps disgusted?

  16. Barry Meislin: I strongly second every one of your statements.
    The beginning of Civil War II is closer every day.

    As to “Dr. Jill”, I do not give a crap about her. Her doctorate is in education, and I know from others similarly degreed that it is mostly a leftist BS degree. She loves being catered to as “First Lady”, which is very affordable given the Biden clan’s corruption (she has undoubtedly played a part), and she does not have to do much about doddering Joe, not even change his Depends or dress him. But she is as corrupt as he ever was.

  17. Whatever contempt and loathing there was between Obama and Netanyahu went both ways. Maybe they both saw through each other’s pretentions. In any case, what happened at the White House was badly botched and unseemly.

    I suspect it was Obama’s wish to be seen as a peacemaker that led to the Iran deal, but bear in mind that there were a lot of people involved in the process both here and in other countries, so I’d wait to see a more detailed account of what happened before speculating about motives.
