Biden excludes Israel from proposed negotiations for new Iran nuclear deal

Dec 4, 2020 12:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 19 Comments

In an apparent appeal to Biden, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared: “There can be no going back to the previous nuclear agreement.” Apparently indifferent to this appeal, Biden has excluded Israel “from the list of countries he said needed to be included in negotiations with Iran toward a new nuclear agreement.”

Two years ago, Netanyahu offered proof that the Iran nuclear deal was based on lies, and that Iran was, contrary to its denials, working toward developing nuclear weapons.

No nuclear deal with Iran should have ever been concluded in the first place. Appeasement does not work. It enables. And in another aspect of the Obama Administration’s appeasement policy with Iran, Iran received $33.6 billion in secret payments.

Biden is already showing his true sentiments regarding Israel. The Palestinian Authority has noticed, and has prepared a wish list of demands for Biden.

Biden has already named a Palestinian who justified jihad suicide bombings as his deputy director of the Office of Legislative Affairs.

“Joe Biden Does Not Include Israel in Proposed New Iran Deal Negotiations,” by Joel B. Pollak, Breitbart, December 2, 2020:

Joe Biden excluded Israel on Wednesday from the list of countries he said needed to be included in negotiations with Iran toward a new nuclear agreement.

In an interview with Thomas Friedman of the New York Times, Biden said that he wanted to resume talks with Iran in the hope of returning to a nuclear agreement that constrains the regime’s ability to develop nuclear weapons.

He added that he wanted to expand the number of countries at the negotiating table with Iran — but pointedly excluded Israel from the list:

The view of Biden and his national security team is that once the deal is restored by both sides, there will have to be, in very short order, a round of negotiations to seek to lengthen the duration of the restrictions on Iran’s production of fissile material that could be used to make a bomb — originally 15 years — as well as to address Iran’s malign regional activities, through its proxies in Lebanon, Iraq, Syria and Yemen.

Ideally, the Biden team would like to see that follow-on negotiation include not only the original signatories to the deal — Iran, the United States, Russia, China, Britain, France, Germany and the European Union — but also Iran’s Arab neighbors, particularly Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

Iran and Israel do not have diplomatic relations, but Israel is the country that would be most directly affected by any nuclear agreement. Iran has vowed to destroy Israel, and Israel has said it would take any necessary steps to stop Iran from becoming a nuclear power.

One of the major flaws of the Obama administration’s Iran deal was that Israel was excluded from the talks even though its national security was directly affected by the outcome….

    Netanyahu uniquely has the understanding and guts to handle Iran. He should be IN CHARGE!

      Palm 2:1-4

      Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

      The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,

      Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

      He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.

        These verses of Palm 22 are good also. “The hounds of war surround me; a pack of German Shepherds encircle me expecting to be petted but yet they trip me up and cause me to fall. They sprain my ankle and break my bones. They take away my shoes and put heavy boots upon my feet. You know the thing and come to my rescue. Save me from these dogs.” (I paraphrase.)

        Jewish opinion has certainly shifted since the 90s, when the Dems started becoming more pro-Pali. Be it Hillary Clinton being the first to suggest the recognition of a Palestinian state, followed by Bush, and then Obama actively supporting the Muslim Brotherhood, ISIS, and other jihadist movements from India to Tunisia

        But it needs to shift until those numbers are reversed – where the number of Jews who call themselves Dems are in single digits

          The Jewish shift MIGHT be true (I’ll take your word for it), but that could only be applied to Jewish commoners (normal people). I have yet to see a SINGLE big Jewish group — whether it’s big tech, mainstream media, Hollywood, or any other big Jewish corporation — switch sides from the Dems. They are still being showered with Jewish money as far as I’m aware of. Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

    Not just in this regard but across the board Biden will do virtually everything wrong. He’s corrupt, has a mediocre intellect and what ideas he does have range from bad to absolutely terrible. As long as Biden is POTUS (I hate even writing this), Israel is on its own and it knows it.

      Wellington, I definitely agree that “Israel is on its own and it knows it”.

      I wrote the following yesterday, did not post it because I wanted to edit it, but did not have time:

      Israeli leaders and Commanders must be anxious. If Trump loses, they will (or maybe have already been) be threatened by the new Obama controlled Biden-Harris administration to take no action against Iran despite their building nukes.

      Will Israel act, then, before Biden is sworn in ? If they take no action on their own due to US threats, Iran will soon have nukes and Israel can certainly assume they will eventually use them. For Iran to have nukes “never again”, referring to the Shoah, becomes meaningless.

      Will Israel let Iran “wipe Israel from the face of the Earth”, rather than be the “aggressor” and start a horrible war in which they may be ultimately forced to use nukes on civilians for survival ? (the people of Iran are in grave danger and must get the current regime out asap).

      So how will Israel proceed ? They do not have the capability to drop bunker busting MOABs, which would take multiple large, specially equipped heavy bombers to penetrate deep in to Iranian airspace; and they may not have enough non-nuclear MOAB type bombs capable of penetrating the multiple Iranian nuclear sites. (As I recall some of those bunkers were built years ago with German engineering assistance to be nuclear attack resistant.)

      So, if Israel goes without the US because of Biden-Obama, they could only destroy those multiple targets with nukes. Not air-burst nukes to kill tens of thousands of people, but a bunker-penetrating nukes that would detonate after penetration, but that would start a wider war.

      Of course there are other area countries that are enemies of Iran (e.g. Saudi Arabia), so how would they react ? I would not assume they would side with Israel.

      To my mind Biden is a clear and un-present danger to the USA and all nations of freedom loving people.

    Okay, I get that Biden wants to exclude Israel from these discussions. Does he also wanna exclude countries like Saudi Arabia, Emirates, Bahrein, Egypt, et al who also hated that JCPOA so much that they started a process of normalizing relations w/ Israel?

    Mr Biden is playing the devil’s advocate. The US will not be spared. September 11 was a tip of the iceberg compared to what will befall them if he goes ahead with his evil intentions with Iran.

        I agree, the more things change, the more they stay the same.

        Are you referring to Dr. Robert Gates?

    Stupidity is right out in the open for all to see. “The Emperor has no clothes!” Negotiate a Nuclear Deal. What the Hell part of “YOU WILL NOT HAVE ONE” is negotiable? Negotiate means, like, “you can have five Nukes of 350 Kilotons each”, no more. Do you get it now? NEGOTIATE means they will HAVE A BOMB. You stupid Democrat people don’t have the IQ of a mushroom.
