Biden can change the course of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict : Comments

By Alon Ben-Meir, published 15/9/2021

It takes bold US leadership to effect a change in the Israeli-Palestinian discourse, and Biden may well be the right president at the right time.

I was wondering if the person writing this was high.

The reason Trump cancelled the aid was because that Hamas and others completely ignored any conditions attached to the aid and used it to either enrich themselves or spend it on weapons etc.

Iran's looming nuclear threat...

http://www.timesofisrael.com/iran-could-have-enough-enriched-uranium-for-a-nuke-in-a-month-report/

Which one is that?
Even if Iran had enough enriched uranium for a nuke, what would it do with it?
Israel has hundreds of nuclear weapons and the US has thousands.

What is Iran going to do with just one?
Put it in a museum? Drive it down the street in a parade?
This is all just lies meant to justify Israel attacking Iran instead.

And the US itself backed out of the JCPOA and reimposed sanctions, so Iran had no obligation to keep enrichment at levels agreed to under that JCPOA.

We're supposed to buckle at the knees with the Israeli narrative, when they themselves probably got Trump to back out of the deal and reimpose the sanctions.

AC,

The problem is that Iran unlike Israel is far more likely to attempt a first strike. The consequential retaliation from Israel would be devastating.

Secondly producing one bomb would mean that No2,3 etc are not far behind.

"The problem is that Iran unlike Israel is far more likely to attempt a first strike."

I don't really think that's relevant, if it is then why did US back out of the JCPOA. Have any of you read it? I have.

THE DEAL - Was no more sanctions against Iran if Iran kept it is uranium enrichment to an agreed level.

Iran was keeping to that deal.
The US quit the deal and reimposed sanctions.
Therefore Iran has no obligation to keep uranium enrichment at the agreed level.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THIS? \
HAVE YOU READ THE JCPOA?

Did the US do that to force Iran back to enrichment?
More than likely
To allow Israel to paint a narrative of Iran exceeding those levels of enrichment?
More than likely.
So they get to sanction them and Israel can act the aggressor, claiming it's defending itself.
More than likely

THERE IS NO DEAL against IRANS ENRICHMENT.
THE US backed out of that deal
END OF STORY.

And Israel, is not a party to ANY atomic treaties.
I bet NO inspections have ever been done at Dimona.
The US should've kept to the deal, but instead it wanted to impose collective punishment upon the whole country.
What do you think the sanctions do?

It can't have its cakes and eat them too.

Israel is paranoid to the point it's dangerous.
Like when they said Saddam was doing the same thing.
They flew in dropped bombs on a nuclear power plant and what do you know?
It was just a nuclear power plant.
If Iran wants nuclear power who are others to say they can't?

There have been reports that Iran denied IAEC inspectors access.
Aside from that remember the Koran says a moslem that dies in support
of Allah is immediately in Paradise, so any Iranians killed in an
Israeli first or second strike will be in Paradise.
So they will have the ultimate reward. No need to worry about nuclear retaliation.
That is the real worry, no disincentive.

AC,

The JCPOA was a bad deal. The allies had little to no opportunities for inspection without advanced warning and JCPOA severely limited the actions that the allies could take against Iran for its criminal actions such as the missile attacks on Saudi etc.

If Iran gets nuclear weapons, there is a real chance that there will be a multi-nation nuclear exchange which will destroy much of the middle east.
