"There will be no Israel in 25 years !" - Ayatollah, day after Obama secures deal

"I'd say [to Israel] that they will not see [the end] of these 25 years," Khamenei said. "God willing, there will be no such thing as a Zionist regime in 25 years. Until then, struggling, heroic and jihadi morale will leave no moment of serenity for Zionists." The supreme leader also referred to the U.S. as "the Great Satan America," and said it was using nuclear negotiations to infiltrate Iran and impose its will.

My take - I liked the Iran Deal because it's at least it's trying something. While all the GOP can do is whine, they offer no solutions. The US owes nothing to Israel and that nation needs to expect Americans to back it less and less as the years go by. I'm not for Iran, but I'm not in favor of Israel either.

 

Far right of the Iran vs the Far right of America. Both hate the deal "and said it was using nuclear negotiations to infiltrate Iran and impose its will."

 

OP, research the demographic shift in Israel to understand the context of the statement.

 

I can't say that a headache going away is a bad thing.

 

Describe "something."

The sanctions were working, that's what brought them into the negotiations to being with. And what's this about the GOP not offering solutions? The sanctions were working and Trump has offered plenty of solutions. We acted like we weren't negotiating from a position of strength and collapsed like yellow dogs.

If I threatened to kill someone I'd be arrested. When Iran threatens to wipe out 6,000,000 Israelis liberals offer to pay for it.

 

Jews have a right to exist peacefully on the land they have inhabited for thousands of years.

After all, it wasn't the Jews that initially tried to eradicate all non Jews from the land in the first place.

They were true victims in that regard.

 

The majority of Jews who immigrated to Israel and made up the bulk of the population has been living in Europe for more than a thousand years.

 

I proposed a solution in 2001, it was rejected. Senator Nelson said the authorization was "sufficient." I tell you what, let's go to WAR with ISIS, that is FORMAL war. Then when we conquer their territory and they surrender the peace treaty, that thing that comes at the end of WAR, gives us a base to operate from for dealing with all the other stuff. Oh, wait, we don't have one of those bases. Why? Not my fault. What about yours?

 

Wow. When it comes to Obama, you have an exceeding low threshold for success. So we have a deal that essentially gives Iran a free pass to do anything they want after 10 years, and you like the deal. Ten years to radical Islamists is nothing. They'll patiently wait, while hardening their existing sites and installing state-of-the-art missile defense systems supplied by the Russians. It will make attacks against future nuclear weapons sites almost impossible.

As a previous poster stated, the Republicans had a solution in place that was working -- sanctions that were strangling Iran. But in typical Obama fashion, him doing "something" is like letting a bull loose in a China shop. Congratulations.

 

leave the Jews alone already

 

Big deal.

Iran isn't a fan of Zionist Israel, go figure

 

they used to be

 

No one owes anyone anything in geopolitics, having said that Israel is an important Ally in the region and we should support them. As far as Iran I think their threats are hollow, they do not have the capacity to take on Israel. Aside shooting some rockets they simply do not have the reach to engage in a real war, which is what it would take to end Israel.

 

When they were controlled by a U.S. Installed dictator who disappeared people for calling for democracy.

 

Yet is was still better than the current regime.

 

Unless you were a Pro-democracy Iranian.

 

In these days i don't think being pro-democracy middle east is favorable to any one

 

As opposed to now?? Iran knows no other way, they do not respect Democracy or freedom.

 

A rogue nation wants to build nukes. How many solutions can you come up with?

 

Oh you mean the ones Obama turned his back on and let get squashed by the government? Those pro-democracy Iranians?

 

Couldn't see THAT coming from a mile away. WHat an idiot we have in the WH. What fabulous friends Obama has chosen. Yeah, lets give them the $150 Billion and see how much of it ends up in the hands of terrorists. Obama is the JV team leader.

 

Iran is more democratic now than it was under the Shah.

 

Iran says a lot of stupid things, to keep the mob happy

 

I'm sure that's what some people said when Chamberlain waltzed off to Munich to blow Hitler.

At least he was "trying something", i.e., appeasing his nation's enemies.

 

So, if Obama said "we should nuke China so we don't have to pay back any of our debt", what do you say? Or, if we just nuked Mexico, we could easily solve our drug AND immigration problem?
