Obama Plans Major Reversal In Israel Policy as Emboldened Iran Demands Even <i>More</i> Concessions on Nukes

Obama Plans Major Reversal In Israel Policy as Emboldened Iran Demands Even More Concessions on Nukes

Iran wants more, reports the Free Beacon's Adam Kredo.

LAUSANNE, Switzerland--Iranian negotiators are becoming rigid and unmoving in their stance on a range of key nuclear issues in talks, according to multiple sources familiar with the negotiations who said Tehran is angling to elicit as many concessions as possible from the United States as the talks reach a critical stage ahead of the looming March 31 deadline.
Iran is pushing for major relief from economic sanctions and the ability to continue sensitive research and development on the nuclear and weapons fronts, according to sources quoted in the Iranian state-controlled press on Sunday.
...
"The Iranians are again outplaying the Americans," said one source in Europe familiar with the negotiations. "They know they’'l have to give up certain things eventually. So they're digging in their heels on issues that mean everything and preparing to give ground on relatively minor issues--but not yet, and not until they see how much more the Americans are willing to give."
Previous concessions by the United States appear to have motivated Iran to push harder on issues such as the possible military dimensions of its nuclear program, as well as continued work on advanced centrifuges and increased sanctions relief, according to a second American source apprised of the demands being set forth.

Iran wants to know how much more it can get off President Backseat Becky. My guess is, they can go all the way and then some.

Meanwhile, he's planning on a "crockery-breaking" turn on Israel, writes Jackson Diehl of the Washington Post.

President Obama’s rhetorical assault on Benjamin Netanyahu last week was in part the product of pique. But it also set the stage for what could be another crockery-breaking bid by Obama for a foreign policy legacy, on a par with his opening to Cuba and would-be nuclear deal with Iran.
By declaring Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations dead and blaming Netanyahu, Obama laid the predicate for a decision to go forward with a U.S.-backed U.N. Security Council resolution that would set the terms for a final peace settlement. Envisioned as an updating of U.N. Resolution 242, which has been part of the framework for the Mideast "peace process" since the 1960s, the idea would be to mandate the solution to the questions Israelis and Palestinians have been unable to agree upon for decades, such as the future status of Jerusalem. Not incidentally, it would provide Obama with the Mideast legacy he has craved since his first day in office.
Whether or not it accelerated Palestinian statehood (and most likely it wouldn't), Obama's initiative would set off an earthquake in U.S. foreign relations and for Israel's standing in the world. For nearly half a century, the United States has taken the position that the terms for a peace settlement between Israelis and Palestinians must come about as the result of negotiations and not as an imposition by outside parties. At the United Nations, it has been a given that Washington will veto resolutions that aim to compel Israel to accept terms.
Now Obama is contemplating going forward with a resolution that was drafted last year by Secretary of State John Kerry and his Mideast negotiations team at the State Department. The language was drawn up in response to efforts by the Palestinians and France to win support for Security Council resolutions following the collapse of Kerry's attempt to get Israeli and Palestinian assent to a "framework agreement" France announced on Friday that it would renew its initiative, giving Obama a fresh prompt.

A country's currency only has to collapse once for it to lose much of its value, forever. And Obama has deliberately collapsed the currency of America's foreign policy reliability and trustworthiness -- he wants the world to know that we can shift like snakes at any time. That will keep other countries from allying with us, which is good, because America, not Iran, is the great contagion that must be contained.

Oh, Russian tanks are moving deeper into Ukraine. Maybe Obama has Iran's promise that they'll fix that crisis for him, too.

You may be correct.

I tend to look at Obama as representative of the franchise.

He may not be a Muslim per se but he's in the control of them so what's the real difference?

He may be a bumbling fool, high on crack and doped up on weed but that doesn't matter as the ones who are running him, are running the country through him. So it winds up the same thing.

I personally think he himself is stupid, is a drug addict and has been under the control of some group of Islamists who's goal was to at a minimum implant a Muslim controlled Senator in Congress.

They lucked out (to some degree. They had a lot of unknowing help) and wound up with their wildest dream; a US President with no one or no power willing to challenge him. A willing media as guardians and a weak willed and clueless minority party. By the time anyone's willing to admit what happened, it will be too late.

A random item from a link over at This Ain't Hell mentioned that George Orwell's high school French teacher was apparently some guy named Aldous Huxley. Interesting coincidence.

The link also mentions that Orwell was kind enough to think of his old French teacher after '1984' was published, and sent Huxley a complimentary copy. After he finishing the book, Huxley wrote a letter to his old student.

It basically summarized as -

"The book was very good. Though I still think my dystopia's more likely."

I think you can blame them for the 2008 election, but the 2012 was likely won via fraud and behind the scenes tactics such as IRS harassment and Holder fighting Voter ID laws, etc.. So I can't believe 52% actually voted for him in 2012.

Indiana trumps Iran.

Strange but true.

184 The best quote of all about our situation is this one:

"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president.

The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."

I only hope it doesn't turn out to be America's epitaph.

185 I think you can blame them for the 2008 election, but the 2012 was likely won via fraud and behind the scenes tactics such as IRS harassment and Holder fighting Voter ID laws, etc..

189 @152: "It's not our fault we're rolling around in the shithole now. It's their fault."

It's not like they really hid their agenda from anyone willing to listen. Hell, they're still telegraphing all of their punches - people just prefer not to notice, because noticing is going to force a choice between action and inaction.

The Left may be doing it, but the Right has been more than happy to let them. It may talk a decent game, but when push comes to shove, only one side actually has the courage of its convictions - and it ain't the Right.

I'd put it at much greater odds only because Israel has known for a long time that they alone are responsible for their security.

194 @172: "I blame the about 40% of eligible voters, who did not vote.."

Sure, the people who realized that both parties' candidates were completely and utterly full of shit - yeah, they're the ones to blame. If you participate in the process, you're part of the problem - you're consenting to the government we have. Your vote, regardless which candidate you choose, empowers the system. Put it another way - if your house collapses because it was shoddily built, do you go out and sue every contractor who didn't build it?

"Well, Romney/McCain was bad, but Obama was worse, so I voted for the lesser of two evils," you may say. Fair enough, but you still knowingly cast a vote for evil. If a vote is to mean anything, it cannot simply be given. It must be earned. Too many vote reflexively - voting for X, who sucks, just because Y sucks worse, because they believe that they have to vote. They don't.

In an ideal world, Obama should have won in 2008 with 3 votes: his, Michelle's, and McCain's (you know he did), with the rest of the country collectively saying: "We're not going to do anything to put either of these submoronic assholes anywhere near the White House". Ok, give him the black vote, too (as an aspirational candidate), but the rest of the country should have been smart enough to know that if those two were the best we could do, the position should not have been filled.

Thinking here about the absolutely overwhelming percentages by which New York City voters supported Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.

If Israel is struck by an atomic weapon, both Obama and Kerry and others will be in at risk because Mossad never forgets, and it has a decades long
ability to reach out and touch someone.

Adolph Eichmann hid in
Argentina until Mossad located him and returned him to Israel for
trial. He was convicted of war crimes and hung by the neck until dead.
A fair and just ending for Eichmann.

198 Fa Cube Itches @ 194: "... the rest of the country should have been smart enough to know that if those two [Obama and McCain] were the best we could do, the position should not have been filled."

How long did McCain spend in 2000 harping about Asians using a certain racially insensitive term, and then explaining his word choice by using the same word, over and over and over?

Was there no one with sufficient influence within the Republican Party to keep him off the primary ballots in 2008?

This isn't about the Republicans.

It's about Democrats.

ALL Democrats.

Like I said in the last thread.

Call them out. The ones you know in your own social circle (assuming there are any who will admit it).

Call 'em out.

It's way past time that the social pressure of disapproval gets pushed their way for a while.

Push.

I don't blame blacks for voting for him. He was the first black candidate of a major party, so of course they were excited about it.

But even if every black voter in the country voted for him, that would have not been enough for him to win. It was all of the white guilt-ridden idiots who were responsible for that.

As for me, I happily and enthusiastically voted for Palin in '08, and I would do it again. She was easily the most qualified of the four P/VP candidates, and she clearly loved America.

Meanwhile, Secratary of State John Kerry, when asked about the prospects of reaching a deal during a stop in a Swiss chocolate shop, responded "inshallah," which is Arabic for "God willing."

Sigh... Do you think anyone has told him that Iranians speak Farsi?
