Netanyahu makes the wonderful observation that while Iran has just reiterated that the destruction of Israel is “non-negotiable,” “evidently giving Iran’s murderous regime a clear path to the bomb is negotiable.” He also says, quite rightly, that Obama’s deal would endanger Israel, the Middle East, and the peace of the world.
Godwin says
In the final showdown it will be a nuclear exchange and a large part of the ME will be flattened.
Jack Holan says
Born exactly 7 years after the liberation of Auschwitz. Grew up in a neighborhood with many tattooed numbered forearms I don’t want to live to see another 6mm Jews vaporized, die from radioactive poisoning or cancers because of literally two fools running amok for a “deal” one with a very secretive almost nonexistent past and the other I wouldn’t trust to run a two car funeral. Yes, Goodwin you may be right but even if we aren’t the ones flattened the outcome may be the same from it be a hot area.
Charli Main says
From my Christian perspective, I know will absolute certainty that vast areas of the Middle East will be vaporised, bringing about the End of Days.
” But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
2 Peter 3.10
To me, that sounds like the perfect description of a massive nuclear exchange.
TH says
Your conclusion is not based on proper Biblical exegesis.The Bible doesn’t provide recipes which can be applied to historical situations lke the present one. The second coming of the Lord will happen not thanks to some criminal activity by Iran and other muslims but when He wants it and there is no Biblical text which gives us any indication of when and how that may be. You have to understand the apocalyptic type language used in the Bible and not extrapolate it.
Don McKellar says
Yes, it is inevitable that the armpit of the world, the Middle East, will go down in a nuclear war. And Israel, the only country with an Iron Dome to protect it, will have to suffer through some awful nuclear fallout.
David, Thailand says
Do you honestly believe Israel’s ‘Iron Dome’ will protect here from an Iranian nuke?
RG says
God is the one protecting Israel, if not they surely would have been annihilated long ago. He proved this during the “6 Day War” and He has proved it time and again ever since the Exodus from Egyptian slavery!
Cicero says
In response to the comment that a nuclear fallout will severely damage the Middle East. RG comments that God will protect.
Alas although prayers are necessary when we feel helpless we cannot rely on prayers alone but must take practical steps to prevent nuclear fission or, failing that protect ourselves from fall out or failing that be prepared to die.
A salutary story from India attests to this fact. There was a magnificent Shiva temple on the western coast of Gujarat India. This ancient temple adjoined and face the Arabian Sea. For centuries the Indian people were worshipping and performing their ceremonies on that esteemed site. As a result the temple was bursting with precious metals , gems , and cultural and sacred artefacts.the plundering Arab Muslims silted from Arabia to the Shiva temple on the Indian. Shores. They were fierce and io.ent. The people and the priests barricaded themselves there and prayed tothe mighty God Shiva to,protect the,. Their prayers went unanswered. The MuslimArabs were merciless they slaughtered the people but reserved their most vicious and barbaric mutilations and torture for the Hindu priests the,selves. After the predators of Islam sailed away with their plunder, the Indians rebuilt the temple and decorated it and continued their worship and holy festivals. Again the MuslimArabs came and despoiled the people and their place of worship. The Indian rebuilt their Shiva temple six times and six times it was destroyed by the Muslims. By which time the Indian people were defeated and broken ,their women and children enslaved. The temple laid in ruins for centuries . That is until the time of Indian independence in the20 th century.when a famous Indian statesman ( Not Gandhi) withthehelp of donations from ordinary Indian people showed leadership and rebuilt the temple.
Today it stands as beautiful and magnificent As. Ever and thronged with villagers, visitors andworshppers alike !
Abe Bird says
I more than hope and expect that Netanyahu will solve the problem that Obama created by the only means that the Iranians will understand and “accept” – multiply attacks on the 10 main nuclear sites until total demolishing…. and all those sites are demolish-able.
Bezelel says
When you’re right, you’re right. A worst case scenario is inevitable unless his points are seen too. Why was he left out of the negotiations to begin with? Israel has more at stake than anyone.

The Obama admin will tell us not to worry that it doesn’t matter how much weapons grade Uranium Iran produces as long as they give us a signed promissory note.

May the powers that be protect Israel and Netanyahu. I wish Bibi was our President in the US. He’s the only sensible one in the region. The way the US government is placating Iran, I can’t help but wonder if perhaps they are giving Iran just enough rope to hang themselves with. If this is the case, then this is a very dangerous game. Either our administration has gone completely crazy, or they are betting that Muslims will destroy each other first, before they get to Israel and all of us infidels…
Reg Johnston says
muslims will NOT destroy themselves. I wish they would but their objective, and essentially what is happening, is to expand until they dominate the world. Obama,. although he will not openly admit it is actually sympathetic toward this movement. He is a very dangerous man;one who should be watched with suspicion.
Don McKellar says
Oh yes they will. They murder and kill each other all the time, even blowing up mosques to do so. Give the Islamic State maniacs some nukes and Iran some nukes and it virtually certain that one will nuke the other — likely as a pre-emptive strike.
Remember, these people don’t deal with reality, they deal with fantasy never-never lands when they die and bang their heads five times a day praying to a moon god who they would be happy to die for. The only reasons the old communists never did anything because they dealt with reality. A grim reality, yes, but in the end they didn’t worship death like these inbred retards do.

Muslim :: Book 39 : Hadith 6752
Jabir reported: I heard Allah’s Apostle (may peace be upon him) as saying: Verily, the Satan has lost all hopes that the worshippers would ever worship (him) in the peninsula of Arabia, but he (is hopeful) that he would sow the seed of dissension amongst them.
Bukhari :: Book 6 :: Volume 60 :: Hadith 114
Narrated Said bin Jubair:
The people of Kufa disagreed (disputed) about the above Verse. So I went to Ibn Abbas and asked him about it. He said, “This Verse:– “And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell.” was revealed last of all (concerning premeditated murder) and nothing abrogated it.”
Bukhari :: Book 2 :: Volume 23 :: Hadith 428
Narrated ‘Uqba bin ‘Amir:
One day the Prophet went out and offered the funeral prayers of the martyrs of Uhud and then went up the pulpit and said, “I will pave the way for you as your predecessor and will be a witness on you. By Allah! I see my Fount (Kauthar) just now and I have been given the keys of all the treasures of the earth (or the keys of the earth). By Allah! I am not afraid that you will worship others along with Allah after my death, but I am afraid that you will fight with one another for the worldly things.”
Bukhari :: Book 1 :: Volume 2 :: Hadith 30
Narrated Al-Ahnaf bin Qais:
While I was going to help this man (‘Ali Ibn Abi Talib), Abu Bakra met me and asked, “Where are you going?” I replied, “I am going to help that person.” He said, “Go back for I have heard Allah’s Apostle saying, ‘When two Muslims fight (meet) each other with their swords, both the murderer as well as the murdered will go to the Hell-fire.’
Dawud :: Book 41 : Hadith 4866
Narrated Jabir ibn Abdullah ; AbuTalhah ibn Sahl al-Ansari:
The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: No (Muslim) man will desert a man who is a Muslim in a place where his respect may be violated and his honour aspersed without Allah deserting him in a place here he wishes his help; and no (Muslim) man who will help a Muslim in a place where his honour may be aspersed and his respect violated without Allah helping him in a place where he wishes his help.
Georg says
I’m afraid the US admin’s ambitions are even less noble than that. Why rewarding Iran hinges upon what they say and not what they do seems like something even a 5th grade lunch table would find insulting. When the French are comparatively bullish you know things are amok. I can’t get over the unforced error this administration is so bent on achieving.
Georg says
Excuse my responding to my own post, but I was just thinking about Robert’s excellent observation that the West’s transgressions, take imperialism in particular, are focused upon in an unbalanced way as though there are no counterbalancing contributions.
Iran’s chants of “Death to America”, which should by themselves ought to preclude any substantive diplomacy, of course stem from the CIA’s past meddling in their affairs. Well, what in the hell is Iran’s MO in the region and across the world? Imperialism, as anyone can see. They force themselves into any nook and cranny they can find to undermine those opposed to their will or empower those that would carry it out. Whether it’s Syria, Lebanon (giving them contiguous access to the Mediterranean), Yemen, Iraq, or South America, for goodness sake, their hegemonic ambitions are limited only by their means, not their ideals.
And what are Iran’s counterbalancing contributions? Chess?
Drain the swamp.

Because of the suffering that your enemy will inflict on you during the siege, you will eat the fruit of the womb, the flesh of the sons and daughters the LORD your God has given you.
Deuteronomy 28:56-57
The most gentle and sensitive woman among you?so sensitive and gentle that she would not venture to touch the ground with the sole of her foot?will begrudge the husband she loves and her own son or daughter the afterbirth from her womb and the children she bears. For she intends to eat them secretly during the siege and in the distress that your enemy will inflict on you in your cities.
2 Kings 6:29
So we cooked my son and ate him. The next day I said to her, ‘Give up your son so we may eat him,’ but she had hidden him.”

I will make them eat the flesh of their sons and daughters, and they will eat one another’s flesh during the stress of the siege imposed on them by the enemies who seek their lives.’

“Look, O LORD, and consider: Whom have you ever treated like this? Should women eat their offspring, the children they have cared for? Should priest and prophet be killed in the sanctuary of the Lord?
Lamentations 4:10
With their own hands compassionate women have cooked their own children, who became their food when my people were destroyed.

Robert Spencer has never once made the case for fearing Shi’ites more than Sunnis. *Both* of them present a threat to Israel, the West, and all Infidels.
And how can you regard a “non-negotiable” vow to “wipe Israel off the map” not to be harassing?
When you wrote, “actions speak louder than words” and “the dog’s bark is worse than it’s bite”, it appears that you consider this to be nothing but empty rhetoric on Iran’s part.
But you are quite mistaken. Iran has funded Jihad terror against Israel for years though Hizb’allah and Hamas. There is nothing “theoretical” about the violence they have wrought.
The idea that we should “pick a side” between Muslims who equally want to enslave and murder us could not, I’m afraid, be more wrongheaded.
tom says
I’m just being a realist. The idea that shia and sunni muslims are bad is truth, but we cant defeat both of them.
Jay Boo says
‘can’t’ is a surrender to Islam word.
We don’t even need to ‘defeat’ Islam.
We only need to reveal Islam.
Followers of Islam always end up turning on each other in the name of Allah when no one else is around to blame for all Islam lacks because at times of peace Muslims must find enemies to avoid looking into the grim void that is the reality of Islam and its founder.
Mirren10 says
”I’m just being a realist. The idea that shia and sunni muslims are bad is truth, but we cant defeat both of them.”
You’re not being ‘realistic’ at all, just foolish.
There is little difference between shiite and sunni, apart from doctrinal nitpicking.
Indeed, **all** sects of islam, whatever their doctrinal differences, follow the koran and mohammed.
islam, of whatever sect, has one over reaching tenet in common, and that is to see the hegemony of islam and sharia over the whole world.
The infighting that is taking place is nothing more than which one gets to be the alpha dog.
Therefore, if we wish to be free, and retain our values, we do need to defeat islam in its entirety.
As gravenimage points out, your suggestion that we need to ‘pick a side’, is analogous to saying we should have picked a side between the black shirts and the brownshirts, or, indeed, between the worshippers of Hirohito and the Japanese generals.

If Obama , Kerry and the other leaders of the other Western countries really believe the empty words and false promises of the officials of this tyrannical Islamic regime in power in Iran then they are all very naive and quite gullible. The those Iranian officials from Iran are just mouthpieces, stooges and tools of the disingenuous, deceptive and lying mullahs and ayatollahs who have very much power in this Islamic tyranny and they also have their own agenda about going nuclear and will let nothing , which included reason and logic stop them from obtaining it. The will have their officials fake being interested in genuine dialogue. This is to get as much sanctions lifted as possible. This is not to, as they claim , make life more easy for the Iranian people but that in a more easy way they may get the materials they need to have their scientists construct W.M.D. That is the mad Islamic quest. For in their kind of Islam they have a strong belief in an Islamic Messiah, who they believe will come a make all things “right”in an Islamic way. Nevertheless, this character will come only if thing in the Middle East get worse and not better. Thus that’s where W.M.D. come in. What Madness !
JMB says
In all of this we probably see at least 60% of Americans absolutely applauding President Obama for reaching out and having dialogue with the Iranians. This 60% still believe it was not the “real” Islam that was responsible for the Twin Towers, Fort Hood and every other terrorist attack or atrocity ever since.
Obviously most of these Obama supporters see little connection between what their hero is doing and what Neville Chamberlain did with Hitler back in 1939.
Lets be realistic, the only language the Iranians will understand will be an ultimatum, STOP your nuclear program NOW or the USA and/or Israel will bomb your research facility out of existence tomorrow.

I don’t think Pakistan has ever threatened Israel, Pakistan probably trades with Israel and is more interested in it’s own survival as an overpopulated 3rd world country than having an ideological battle with the Jewish State
Pakistan has the bomb but not much else. That bomb is also their “big stick” against India and is probably more for show and propaganda than any real use.
BUT, yes, they may wish to sell their bomb to the highest bidder in the Middle East for much needed cash, that is probably the biggest worry.
Wellington says
Huh, tom, Israel should fear Shia Persians at least as much as Sunni Arabs because 1) Iranian officials have said that wiping Israel off the map, which many in the Iranian government have called for for years, is non-negotiable (and it’s always best to take dictatorial threats seriously, as an example from history, Hitler’s many threats); and 2) Iran is one of the leading, if not THE leading, sponsor of Islamic terrorism throughout the world and, last time I checked, Israel is part of the world and rather close to Iran.
Really, tom, I gotta’ say you’re either a standard fool or a troll and since all trolls are fools of a kind, well, you’re a fool or some sort.

if we support these sunni gulf monarchs then our goal of trying to bring freedom and democracy to afghanistan and iraq was a farce.

Very astute observation—and very grim conclusions.
I can remember just a couple of short years ago when my biggest concern re Iran was that no one was acting to prevent their developing nuclear bombs, and new we find our own government actively enabling this vicious insanity. Madness,

From the video …
“Yesterday an Iranian general brazenly declared and I quote, “Israel’s destruction is non-negotiable”
Netanyahu responds by stating …
“But evidently giving Iran’s murderous regime a clear path to the bomb is negotiable” …”this is unconscionable”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Indeed it *is* unconscionable!!
The remainder of Netanyahu’s speech was great, but I hold out zero hope that Iran’s regime will EVER ‘change’, so I think that this current regime must be overthrown and their nuclear facilities destroyed–since there is no negotiating with those intent on your destruction; and Iran’s evil regime wants to destroy Israel, and America, as well. Yeah, if I were president of the world, then this is how it would go down …

Shabeer Hassan you quote from the Koran such:

Bukhari :: Book 6 :: Volume 60 :: Hadith 114
Then your Jabir is correct, “The Satan” has indeed sown the deed of dissension amongst muslims. So why are muslims not peaceful then? Surely muslims can see that they are doing the will of Satan by engaging in violence? What is it that muslims worship?
