Is Obama Regime Planning To Re-Engage With North Korea?
by Shifra on July 20, 2015Because the Iran nuclear deal was such an amazing success…for Iran. Via Breitbart: Moments after the Obama administration and world powers agreed to a nuclear deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran, State Department officials said…that the United States was ready to re-engage North Korea in nuclear negotiations. “Progress in the nuclear talks with Iran clearly demonstrates our willingness to engage countries with whom the United States has long-standing differences,” and that includes the tyrannical regime in North Korea, State Department spokesman John Kirby said Tuesday, according to a report from South Korea’s Yonhap News Agency. Kirby said the U.S. was willing to negotiate with the despotic leadership of North Korea, “provided that they are authentic and credible, get at...

U.S. Negotiator: Anytime Anywhere Access To Iran Nuke Facilities Was Just Rhetoric
by Shifra on July 17, 2015With 100 billion dollars, looks like the Iranians are literally “laughing all the way to the bank.” Via Jerusalem Post: The US pledge three months ago for “anytime, anyplace” access to Iran’s nuclear facilities was more of a rhetorical flourish than anything else, US Under Secretary of State Wendy Sherman said on Thursday…. I think this is one of those circumstances where we have all been rhetorical from time to time,” Sherman, who played a central role in the negotiations, said in a conference call with Israeli diplomatic reporters…. Sherman urged the Israeli public to read the more than 100-page agreement and then judge it on the facts…. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has stressed that under the accord, “instant” inspections...

Pelosi: Four U.S. Prisoners Should Not Have Been Released As Nuke Deal Pre-Condition
by Shifra on July 17, 2015Not. Kidding. This has got to be one of the most craven things Pelosi has uttered (and there are so many). Via CNS News: ….At a Capitol Hill press conference, CNSNews.com asked Rep. Pelosi, “Do you think the four American hostages being held in Iran should have been released as a pre-condition to any deal made about Iran’s nuclear program?” Pelosi answered: “No, no. It would have been good. But it’s just, no, this is a nuclear deal. This is a nuclear agreement. And I think that we have to–I appreciate the fact that since we have a nuclear negotiation and now we have a nuclear agreement that a much brighter light is being shone on the prisoners of conscience...

Treasury Secretary: Don’t Worry, Most Of Money We Give Iran Won’t Fund Terror
by Shifra on May 5, 2015Whew, what a relief! Looks like we really dodged a bullet with this Iran “peace deal” thing. So, not to worry: We give Iran $50B as a “signing bonus,” they only use a “little bit” of the money to sponsor terrorism around the world. Via IJ Review: Obama Cabinet Official: ‘Most’ of the Relief Money to Iran Won’t Fund Terrorism Treasury Secretary Jack Lew acknowledged that large sums of money will be given to Iran as part of the sanctions relief, adding that “most” of it won’t directly fund terrorist operations in the Middle East….

Kerry Honors Islam, Passes Over Christian and Jewish Holidays
by Shifra on April 9, 2015I don’t think any of us really need John Kerry’s comments on our respective religious observances. But the Obama Administration’s lavish praise of Islam, and its refusal to acknowledge the Islamofascist genocide of Christians, is alarming. And dangerous. Via Weekly Standard: John Kerry Recognizes Islamic Holidays, Largely Silent on Christian and Jewish Occasions Secretary of State John Kerry has often spoken to the Muslim world during his tenure, particularly during the past year as negotiations with Iran have intensified and conflict with the Islamic State has escalated. But what Kerry has not said during the past twelve months is also significant. A review of the secretary’s official remarks and statements noting special dates on Islamic, Perisan, and Arab calendars shows...

The bomb diagram attached to a White House tweet looked a lot like a chart used by Netanyahu during a 2012 speech to the United Nations General Assembly urging the U.S. and other world powers to set an ultimatum to stop Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon. Using a marker, Netanyahu drew a red line...

Is This Obama’s Revenge? U.S. Declassifies Docs, Reveals Israel’s Nuclear Program
by Shifra on March 26, 2015Someone needs to tell our petulant POTUS to put on his big boy pants and stop sulking about Netanyahu’s speech to Congress and the results of last week’s Israeli election. If Obama is taking revenge on Israel with this action, it is really outrageous. And dangerous: Via Israel National News: US Declassifies Document Revealing Israel’s Nuclear Program In a development that has largely been missed by mainstream media, the Pentagon early last month quietly declassified a Department of Defense top-secret document detailing Israel’s nuclear program, a highly covert topic that Israel has never formally announced to avoid a regional nuclear arms race, and which the US until now has respected by remaining silent. But by publishing the declassified document from...

Video: Netanyahu Responds to Hostile White House Tweet
by Shifra on March 9, 2015Kudos to PM Benjamin Netanyahu for continuing to praise Obama in the face of outrageous WH Bibi-bashing. And shame on our thin-skinned POTUS, who could have put on his “big-boy pants” and met with Netanyahu. Instead, he chose to sulk, and he encouraged Dems to boycott the speech. And after Netanyahu’s speech, the WH National Security Council put out this tweet: Interesting take from @FareedZakaria on why PM Netanyahu's predictions on #Iran have been wrong for 25 years http://t.co/SHffz3GPOj — WH National Security (@NSCPress) March 6, 2015 Here is Netanyahu’s response: Via NY Post: Obama administration, Netanyahu bicker on Twitter Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took the Obama administration to task Sunday for using Twitter to call his stance on...

Saudi Journalist Praises Netanyahu, Calls Obama ‘One Of Worst Presidents Ever’
by Shifra on March 6, 2015As BizPac Review points out in Arab pundit unites with Israel’s Netanyahu; calls Obama ‘one of the worst American presidents’ ….This isn’t like a columnist or a blogger writing in the United States. Saudi Arabia doesn’t have a First Amendment – if opinions like this are making it into the “mainstream” press, it’s because they reflect the views of the government…. The translation is provided by MEMRI (Middle East Media Research Institute) ….Since Obama is the godfather of the prefabricated revolutions in the Arab world, and since he is the ally of political Islam, [which is] the caring mother of [all] the terrorist organizations, and since he is working to sign an agreement with Iran that will come at the...
