It’s a rule of thumb: appeasing bullies makes them stronger. Yet the world has insisted upon such appeasement from Israel for decades in the face of the Palestinian jihad against the Jewish state. Now that Israel has a government that is standing up and saying enough, the blame will increasingly fall on Netanyahu rather than where it should be falling.
Iran has now enriched uranium to nearly 90%, and has been for a considerable period been funding the Palestinian jihad against Israel.
“Israel’s Window to Strike Iran Narrows as Putin Enters Equation,” by Ethan Bronner, Bloomberg, March 2, 2023:
Iran is seeking sophisticated new air-defense systems from Russia that Israeli officials believe will narrow the window for a potential strike on Tehran’s nuclear program, according to people familiar with the matter.
The prospect of Iran getting the systems, the S-400s, would accelerate a decision on a possible attack, people in Israel and the US with knowledge of the discussions said.
Russia hasn’t said publicly if it will supply the weapons, but Moscow and Tehran have drawn closer since Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.
It would take less than two years for the S-400s to be operational.
“The longer you wait, the harder that becomes,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said of a strike on Iran at a security conference in Tel Aviv last week. “We’ve waited very long. I can tell you that I will do everything in my power to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.”
Such open threats — daily occurrences now in Israel — are a complex mix of intent and messaging aimed at Tehran and Washington although Israel bombed nuclear sites in Iraq in 1981 and Syria in 2007. An open military conflict with Iran could trigger an unparalleled regional conflagration affecting global oil supplies…..

And this is countered by biden’s crew…including his boss, bo…doing everything in their power to see that iran has the power of the nukes.
John Smith says
Spot on Somehistory, because that is exactly what is happening. The antichrist regime is in power.
somehistory says
Thank you, John Christ will not fail, however, and we trust in Him.
Clifton T. Moberg says
As I lie in bed this am, barely awake, I was considering that trust is even more useful in this world than love. What do you say to that notion?
somehistory says
Many would say they Love God, Love Christ, but they don’t really Trust in God and His Son to make things right.
They may give God their problems, but because they don’t really trust, they then take those problems back. And when they then can’t solve them, they look to imperfect men.
Deodata says
Who would ever have thought that America would not support Israel, especially when you look at their beliefs.
somehistory says
I think that most who have a belief in God, recognize the importance of Israel on the wotld stage. Politicians who think only of their own power, influence and the money they get, are the ones who don’t consider the “beliefs.” Big business…also run by politics…is the same way…no belief is more important to them than that they can make a boatload if they pick the side which will give them the power and control.
Deodata says
Just goes to show the quality of the people who are supposed to represent us. No wonder the turn-out at elections is so low. None of them have a first principle of looking after their own people and doing what the people ask for.
I’ve always thought that the promises they make during the election should be a binding contract and judge on their ability to deliver on it. Prime example Boris Johnson, 80 seat majority and never fulfilled a single manifesto promise
somehistory says
It’s a federal offense to lie to Congress. It should also be a federal offense for a politician to lie to the public.
It should be a crime for one politician in Congress to lie on the floor…as harrry reid did some years ago…and if States put laws into place charging politicians who lie in their states…local campaigns or for national office, such as president…we might hear the Truth a lot more often.
Namer says
He may be standing up to Iran but he’s tearing Israel apart.
James Lincoln says
Namer,
If Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu does not stand up to Iran, there will be no Israel for him to “tear apart”.
JimJFox says
Well said. Name is not gifted with that ability to think.
JimJFox says
Namer. Damn word prediction, it’s clueless!
Chintamani Patwardhan says
We, the whole world must support Israel Benjamin Netyanahu if he orders attack on nuclear establishments of Iran. 🤛🏼🤛🏼🤛🏼
Walter Sieruk says
Benjamin Netanyahu is very wise and shows good judgement then he declared “I will do everything in my power to prevent Iran from acquiring weapons .”
In contrast , pseudo “president” Joe Biden who is very disingenuous fool and an outright liar ,still in spite of all the facts about how awful that hostile that tyrannically Islamic regime of Iran is , Biden still wants gives that that so-called “deal” to made with that aggressive and vicious Islamic tyranny then he is ,indeed , a treasonous villain of the most evil sort.
For that demonically ambitious and sinister jihad –minded Muslims who have all the power in that hostile and menacing Islamic regime of Iran will continue in the unreasoning Islamic quest in the manufacture and construction of nuclear weapons. Therefore any so called “negotiation” with the officials of the Islamic “Republic” of Iran is a complete and total waste of time and effort.
For those disingenuous and outright lying officials of that aggressive, brutal and deceptive tyrannical Islamic state will only speak the truth only then it happens to suite them. Likewise, those in control and power in that “mullah tyranny” of Iran will only keep any of the promises they many happen to make only as long as it would suite them and no longer.
Furthermore, that fiendish President of Iran ,Raisi in power in that tyrannical Islamic regime of Iran it’s now a rather appropriate time to bring out the fact that if the founder of the current Islamic tyranny ,Ayatollah Khomeini would still be alive today ,he would spit on Joe Biden.
The reason is that Biden had publicly declared and claimed, “Islam is a non-violent religion” In other words he said that “Islam is not a religion of violence.”
Pseudo President Biden is a liar and the Muslim clerics of Iran know that.
For as Ayatollah Khomeini had clearly announced that “Those who know nothing about Islam pretend that Islam counsels against war….There are hundreds psalms and hadiths urging of Muslims to value war and to fight. …I spit upon those foolish souls who make such a claim.” [1]
There are also many places in the Qu ‘ran that instruct in violence and killing for the cause of Islam.
As found in ,for example Surah 2:191. 4:89.. 5:33. 9:5, 111,112 ,123. 47:4.
Therefore if Khomeini alive and well in this year of 2023 he would spit upon Joe Biden.

Walter Sieruk says
Israel has every ethical and practical right stop That aggressive and hostile nuclear weapons construction by bombing those sites in Iran by other means. Such nuclear armed missile production and other deadly weapons manufacturing stations in that antagonistic and belligerent “mullah regime” of Iran that has intention of destroying the Jewish State of Israel.
Therefore, Israel is right and righteous and just a strike force in self-defense.
As the fifth President of the United States, James Monroe, wisely, had declared “The right to self-defense never ceases. It is among the most sacred, and alike necessary to nations and to individuals.”
