Can You Guess Who Netanyahu Wants in 2016?

     He has already tampered so much with the American political process that the only thing left for him to do is vote... The news that the long awaited Iran nuclear deal may be immiment has him truly beside himself.

  "But perhaps his most ludicrous statement came a few days ago. In an Israeli state speech, Netanyahu essentially declared that Iran to be a Bond villain:"

  "Iran's increasing aggression is more dangerous than that of ISIS, which is dangerous enough by itself. And this aggression will reach every corner of the world because Iran's ultimate goal is to take over the world."

   "It's true that Iran is a destabilizing force in the Middle East. It poses a legitimate threat to Israel and is currently helping Bashar al-Assad's regime slaughter civilians in Syria. But be real: The notion that Iran could "take over the world" or even wants to is so ridiculous that it would make Pinky and the Brain blush."

     Actually, you know who it wouldn't make blush-George W. Bush and his Administration. It likely wouldn't make Jeb Bush blush either. The absurd claim that Saddam Hussein was a threat to take over the world or something close to it was the specious reasoning behind the Iraq War.

    Israel seems to have basically become a national security state-Netanyahu's Likud party has been in power the entire millennium. Apparently this is all to distance himself from criticism at home for this terrible deal to happen on his watch.

   Meanwhile, according to CNBC there is a draft out for the Iran deal which may well be made official tomorrow.

  "A draft nuclear deal between Iran and six major powers calls for U.N.inspectors to have access to all suspect Iranian sites, including military, based on consultations between the powers and Tehran, a diplomatic source said on Tuesday."

   "The source also said that if the deal is accepted, a U.N. Security Council resolution on it would ideally be adopted this month and the steps to be taken by both sides - including Iranian limitations on its nuclear program and relief from sanctions on Iran - would be implemented in the first half of 2016."

   The GOP won't like the deal but then they're opposed by definition to the existence of the State Department.
