Op-ed: Key Middle East Players Are Siding With Netanyahu

Op-ed:
Key Middle East Players Are Siding With Netanyahu
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on CPR Worldwide Media / www.cprworldwidemedia.net

“I oppose this deal because I want to prevent war. And this deal will bring war.”
- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's words in reference to Obama's nuclear surrender to Iran

While Congress is on hiatus for the month of August, our Israel-hating traitor-in-chief is in full operational mode as he tries to garner support in Congress for his Iranian sellout...actually surrender...nuclear deal. Coming up against and trying to deflect a very well-organized and very well-financed AIPAC campaign put together by those who oppose this deal, Obama recently met with 20 leaders of major Jewish groups to try and play down their many rightful concerns after he referred to any who oppose the deal as being “basically warmongers.” Saying he would NOT hesitate to "argue forcefully" for the deal...a deal he oh so wrongly believes is in the best interest of both the U.S. and Israel...Obama is now faced with the reality that even some of the party loyal have pledged to say NO to this very bad deal.

Among the Democrats who oppose this deal...this surrender...are New York Rep. Steve Israel (the highest-ranking Jewish Democrat in the House), fellow New York Rep. Nita Lowey, and Florida Rep.Ted Deutch (the senior Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs subcommittee on the Middle East) who said, “After a decade in public life working to stop Iran from ever acquiring nuclear weapons, I cannot support a deal giving Iran billions of dollars in sanctions relief — in return for letting it maintain an advanced nuclear program and the infrastructure of a threshold nuclear state.”

And what does Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu...the world's last great statesman... continue to say about Obama's sellout...surrender ...to Iran...first, he says the agreement is fatally flawed and dangerous, and that, “As a result of this deal, there will be more terrorism, there will be more attacks, and more people will die”... second, he says that supporters of the deal are trying to “muzzle criticism” of it with "deceitful" claims...and third, he says that Obama 's claim that the deals opponents have NO other choice other than war for reining in Iran’s nuclear weapons ambitions are “utterly false.”

Each and every word said by Netanyahu is indeed a correct assumption...is indeed the truth...and it's a truth that Barack HUSSEIN Obama wants and needs to be kept hidden at all costs.

Reiterating every chance he gets Israel's arguments that this very bad deal is NOT enough to even remotely curb or reign in Iran's nuclear ambitions, Netanyahu is quick to point out...and rightfully so...that the U(seless) N(ations) having given sanctions relief before a vote of yea or nay was taken by Congress...with Obama justifying the U.N. action by saying that the deal is NOT a treaty and therefore does NOT need congressional support...could very well help Iran's ongoing destabilization and financing of regional conflicts both in the Middle East and in North Africa.

And what about the other major Middle East players in countries affected by this very bad deal...many of them now surprisingly agreeing with Netanyahu arguments about Iran's ultimate ambition being to become the dominant power in the Middle East via their becoming a nuclear power. First and foremost is Saudi Arabia...a country who has forged an alliance of sorts with Israel and shares in Israel's belief that Iran's development of any type of nuclear technology will move it closer to becoming a nuclear state capable of developing a bomb at short notice. And it's through this alliance that Saudi's rulers want to bring change into the current political equation turning said equation from a balance between the state and non-state players into a fine-tuned balance between a government and an opposition, and doing so from within the Saudi state's framework. Believing that this will render both Iran and ISIS less of a threat to them and to the region in general, the Saudi's hope that by limiting Iran's regional influence it in turn would help assure a better down the road nuclear deal with Iran.

Lofty ambitions but even Saudi's leaders know...as does Netanyahu...that first, Iran cannot be trusted to abide by any deal...NOT now nor in the future...for a state ruled by religious zealots will NEVER acquiesce to any who do NOT follow their religious dogma....and second, a nuclear-armed Iran or an Iran even close to developing and/or delivering a payload would be off-limits to any serious military attack as their main facilities remain buried deep underground and for all intents and purposes are off-limits to inspection.

And Egypt...who like Saudi Arabia has a Sunni Muslim-majority population unlike Iran which is primarily Shia...also has serious concerns about this deal and is outwardly opposed to it. Now having forged a close relationship with Israel, al-Sisi”s Egypt totally sides with the Jewish state in their condemnation of Iran. Besides having a peace treaty with Israel, Egypt, as well as Jordan, has increased security cooperation with Netanyahu's government. And al-Sisi has called for the formation of an Arab regional alliance to fight both islamic extremism and Iran, and is supported by Israel in this endeavor. And Egypt is working with Israel to combat ISIS loyal terrorist groups in the Sinai Peninsula, as well as cracking down on Iran-supported terrorist group Hamas.

And what of the regions other players...leaders of the smaller Gulf states who are truly concerned about the so-called 'technical aspects' of the nuclear deal...the ones hiding deep within the annexes and appendixes. Well, they are most assuredly quite nervous about how the U.N. sanctions relief and improving ties with Washington could and most likely will shift the regional balance of power in Iran's favor. And with Iran already helping to destabilize the region by supporting its favored militant groups in Yemen, Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon, and now with said billions of dollars being freed up by the sanctions relief, many Arab leaders rightly fear that Iran now will now be able to greatly increase their funding for those fighters...exactly the same fear that Netanyahu has.

And all fear that their relationship with Washington might quickly erode with this very bad deal for it gives Iran even more control of and access to the Gulf's oil reserves, and if Iran did get a nuclear weapon it will allow them to become what's known as a 'most privileged partner in the region' as Washington...NO matter the party in control of the White House...will be forced to deal with them even more so than they would have had to if the deal was NOT implemented.

So, as the September 17th last day for a vote on this very bad deal is fast approaching, Netanyahu has his work cut out for him in trying to convince those in Congress that this deal must NOT in any way be implemented and Obama has his work cut out for him that it must...remember the brethren are counting on him. I only hope that those in Congress put aside their party loyalties and for once unite together and do the right thing NOT only for the U.S...NOT only for Israel...but for the safety of the world as well.
